Description
Positioned in the heart of Horninghold, widely known as the prettiest village in Leicestershire, this well-presented family home offers a bright and versatile interior that has been designed around modern family living. Situated just 5 miles from the market town of Uppingham and 10 miles from Market Harborough, both known for their character and amenities, the location combines peaceful village living with excellent access to rail links, including direct trains to London from Market Harborough in under an hour
The entrance hall is wide and bright, setting the tone for the space to come. Immediately off the hall is a flexible reception room that is equally suited as a playroom, cosy snug, or a private home office, ideal for remote working.
The dual-aspect lounge is a generous and inviting space, with a designated reading or music area and a main seating area centred around a traditional-style fireplace. French doors open onto the paved terrace, drawing in natural light and offering a seamless connection to the garden
The kitchen is designed for sociable living, with a central island and ample worktop space for family cooking or casual dining. From here, the flow of the house continues into a generous utility/boot room, a functional and essential space for busy families and country lifestyles, and a guest cloakroom for added convenience.
To the rear of the property, a vaulted reception room with oak flooring and double-aspect glazing, including a large glazed gable and Velux window, creates a bright and versatile space. French doors open directly onto the garden, making it ideal for entertaining, whether used as a dining area or additional family living space.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a true retreat. With a vaulted ceiling, dressing area, and ensuite bathroom, it offers a quiet and luxurious escape.
There are three further bedrooms on this floor. The second bedroom benefits from its own ensuite shower room, making it an excellent option for guests or teenagers, while a family bathroom serves the remaining two bedrooms.
Set back from the village lane, the property offers off-road parking and access to a single garage. The rear garden is beautifully planted and well established, providing excellent privacy and a tranquil setting for outdoor enjoyment.
This is a home designed for real life, with well-planned living spaces, flexibility for modern families, and a setting that captures the charm of village living. With excellent schools nearby and easy access to the market towns of Uppingham and Market Harborough, it strikes a perfect balance between peaceful surroundings and day-to-day convenience.
