‘Refreshed, renovated and renewed: a bespoke contemporary home of style.’ InspirationalThe present owners have lived in this property for 23 years and in 2017 began a total overhaul of their home. Using personal expertise, their redesigning and restructuring project had the prime objective of creating a stylish contemporary home of exceptional quality. Be prepared to be impressed, as this is an individual and utterly inspiring property. The transformed house generously fulfils all the expectations for a modern home. On the ground floor the house has been altered to provide three reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room with utility, cloakroom and double garage. There are four bedrooms – two with private en-suites and two with a shared en-suite – on the first floor with a family bathroom. On the second floor the space has been converted into a room presently used as an additional study but which could easily be used as a fifth bedroom. Access to a large storage area has been provided by installing an electrically operated divide. The residence is situated on a quiet cul-de-sac on Lea Close, within the Leicestershire village of Broughton Astley. It is only a short distance away from open countryside, and the village centre is ideally located to enable easy access to larger towns and major transport links crisscrossing the East Midlands. On approach This attractive property is bordered by brick and open slat fencing running parallel to the road in an established residential area. The open aspect allows an unhindered view of the house and key design and architectural features hint at a Scandinavian influence: specifically the powder coated aluminium windows, timber cladding and render, and the apex windows above the double garage. These angled windows reach up to the top of the hip and valley box gabled roof, accentuating the tall elevation and adding a showpiece feature from the exterior. Interiorly, light is allowed to pour into the entrance hall through the translucent glass framing the distinctive composite front door with vertical bar handle. The wide block paved drive adds to the practical, stylish appearance of the house featuring materials that have been chosen for quality and low maintenance. There is ample space here for parked vehicles and the double garage has been fully insulated, so if it was not required solely for vehicles, it could be used in part, or wholly, as a gym or workroom. Well equipped with storage facilities, power sockets and provision for an electrical car charging point, this room has hidden potential and provides access into the rear garden courtyard. Outside security lighting and a contemporary doorbell webcam, are further characteristics of a property that from the outset, reveals that attention has been paid to even the smallest of details. This impressive property has been thoroughly adapted and will offer its new owners the benefit of a fantastic home that can be enjoyed from the outset.A light filled welcome Upon entry, the eye is drawn upward to the light oak and glass panelled staircase, which rises to the first floor landing. Carpeted and finished with light oak newel posts, handrail and skirting boards, the decorative elements beautifully displayed here will become the consistent theme throughout the property where white walls, solid wood finishes and neutrally blended colours for tiling, accessories and integrated storage, are standard. The external and internal doors have been replaced, the lighting is flush to the ceiling and the large windows are dressed with blinds, all combining to produce an interior that is contemporary, fresh and well presented.The ground floor On entry into the house the entrance hall floor is tiled and provides the linking space leading to different rooms. The first door after entry on the left is the downstairs cloakroom, comprising of a two piece suite of hand basin and toilet, with heated towel rail. Immediately in front of the entrance, double oak doors lead into the lounge and then further down the hall, the kitchen/dining room and lastly, the study. Bespoke fitted cupboard and drawer space under the stairs provides practical storage.The generous lounge is carpeted and is equipped with a large feature fire with log store beneath, providing the focal point of the room. Here, a calming and subtle choice of textures and fittings compliment a light filled room that provides a view of the rear garden through bi folding doors. The doors are one set of three bi folds made by Schuco and provide amazing access to the garden from the kitchen/dining room and separate dining room. They open up the rooms to permit an ease of movement and provide an excellent asset for large scale entertaining. The lounge also has an internal door through to the kitchen.Preparing and eating in styleFrom one lovely space to another, the open plan kitchen flows impressively into a dining space and then through a semi dividing wall into the dining room itself. Again, the palette of colours and textures used, creates an impression of uncluttered space and thoughtful design, with quality and practicality prioritised.Within the kitchen there is ample room to have a table for informal dining or use the independent island counter with high rise chairs. Presently, sofas and a coffee table make good use of this fantastic relaxing space, bathed in natural light. The dining room provides the third option and this lovely room overlooks the south facing garden, while still being within conversational reach of those busy in the kitchen.The kitchen island has a Corian worktop with a fitted sink and features four contemporary low level pendant light fixtures. This kitchen has a generous flow of worktops beneath and above white sleek cabinetry, providing a handleless, modernised storage system with soft close function. Integrated appliances by Neff include an induction hob with extractor hood, two single ovens, microwave and coffee machine. Two single fridges, the wine cooler and Hotpoint dishwasher are also integral. The utility room has a separate sink and provides all necessary plumbing requirements for laundry appliances. Negotiations are possible over the inclusion of the washing machine, tumble dryer and fridge-freezer. Access to the rear courtyard and garage, is through the utility room. The study is the last room on this level and is fitted with desk, worktops and storage facilities.The added benefit of the open plan arrangement within these reception room is that the garden and paved patio areas are reached by pushing back the bi-folding doors that essentially form an easily movable wall of glass. This property is beautifully designed to change with requirements so whether you are catering on a large or small scale, enjoying a formal dinner party or a quieter meal for a few, this arrangement of space enables versatility and use of the raised patio area in the garden. The garden has been purposefully designed to need low maintenance. It is bordered by fences, shrubbery and raised beds, which surround an artificial lawn.Onwards and upwardsIf we now double back through the kitchen, re-enter the hall and travel upstairs, the landing provides access to the rooms on the first and second level. Standing to admire the architectural merits of the windows and open space afforded by the staircase, we can access the primary bedroom suite.The spacious, master bedroom has a dramatic apex window and skylights. Beautifully fitted wardrobes cover an entire wall and have been coordinated with drawer units and dressing table, featuring a backlit mirror. It is a very glamourous space and is equally complimented with an en-suite consisting of a dual basin unit, walk in shower, heated towel rail and toilet.This property has four bathing facilities on the first floor and a cloakroom downstairs. All are similarly fitted to the highest specifications with contemporary tiles, heated towel rails and white sanitary ware. A family bathroom is next door to the prime bedroom, comprising of basin, bath, walk in shower, heated towel rail and toilet. Across the landing and above the lounge, a large second bedroom has fitted wardrobes, bedroom storage and an en-suite. Bedrooms three and four have a Jack and Jill arrangement of doors opening into an en-suite of their own.There are clever design features within this property that maximise space and flexibility of purpose. The last room demonstrates this. Tucked away on the second floor, a room accessed by its own flight of stairs provides a private retreat, ideal for a study or indeed a fifth bedroom with extensive hidden storage.Broughton Astley LE9Broughton Astley is advantageously situated in the south of Leicestershire. ‘Advantageously’ because it is only 9 miles from Leicester’s city centre, 6 miles east of Hinckley and about 14 miles from Coventry. The M1 (junction 20, south, near to Lutterworth and junction 21, north), M6 and M69 maximise the potential for travel by road from this central location. There is also the train station at Narborough, less than 5 miles away for those who need a more distant commute, with trains running regularly to London St Pancras International.The bustling village is part of the Harborough district of Leicestershire and although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, education and leisure amenities. There are an array of shops, restaurants, cafes and parks, with the additional benefits provided by a local chemist, post off...
