Garth, Knighton Road – An Elegant and Enduring Family Home in the Heart of Stoneygate Set discreetly on a corner plot within one of Leicester’s most admired residential enclaves, Garth is a beautifully extended four-bedroom detached home that exudes grace, space, and seclusion. Accessed via the leafy tranquillity of Birkdale Avenue, and forming part of the prestigious Knighton Road address, this distinguished residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home of substance and serenity in the heart of Stoneygate. Approached through a mature wrap-around garden, the home enjoys privacy and presence in equal measure. Its elevated position and generous frontage create an immediate impression of quiet grandeur, while the wide cul-de-sac offers ample additional parking and a peaceful residential setting. A private driveway to the rear leads to a detached garage, and for future flexibility, the property already benefits from a dropped kerb directly onto Knighton Road, offering the potential to establish a second access point and further off-road parking if desired. Once inside, Garth reveals itself as a home of proportion and refinement. The entrance porch opens into a wide hallway filled with natural light, where original timber floors and soft heritage tones invite you deeper into the house. To the front, a generous dual-aspect lounge with bay window and traditional fireplace provides a warm and welcoming retreat. A second sitting room to the rear offers French doors out to the garden – perfect for quiet afternoons, reading, or evening conversation. The heart of Garth lies in its outstanding kitchen and dining extension – a beautifully conceived space designed to meet the demands of modern family life while celebrating light, volume, and craftsmanship. Bifold doors span two elevations, seamlessly connecting indoors and out, and allowing the natural surroundings to spill in. The kitchen itself has been thoughtfully fitted with underfloor heating, bespoke cabinetry, and an exceptional specification, including a Bosch induction hob, Elica extractor, two Bosch ovens, integrated microwave, fridge and freezer, space for laundry appliances, and a Quooker boiling water tap. Dual sinks and abundant storage make this a space that is as functional as it is striking — a true centrepiece for everyday living, entertaining, and special occasions. Upstairs, the generous landing is lit by a tall picture window, framing views of the garden and casting daylight throughout the upper floor. Four bedrooms offer beautifully proportioned private spaces for rest and retreat. The principal bedroom, positioned at the front, is a serene dual-aspect room with garden views and space for wardrobes and seating. The second bedroom is equally spacious, again dual-aspect, with built-in storage and lovely light. A third double bedroom overlooks the rear garden, while the fourth bedroom features dual-aspect windows and flexibility for use as a nursery, dressing room or home office. The family bathroom has been thoughtfully modernised with a four-piece suite, including bath, basin, WC, and bidet, and is complemented by a separate shower room, providing additional convenience for a growing family. Outside, the wrap-around garden is a true joy — landscaped with lawned areas, planted borders, and pebbled seating zones that follow the sun throughout the day. From morning coffee in a quiet corner to summer evenings shared with friends, this garden is not only private but deeply liveable. Additional benefits include a large, partially boarded loft with potential for conversion (subject to the necessary consents), gas-fired central heating, and scope to personalise further, creating a forever home suited to evolving needs. Stoneygate remains one of Leicester’s most cherished neighbourhoods, with its tree-lined avenues, boutique shops, outstanding schools, and leafy green spaces. Garth occupies one of its most desirable plots — peaceful, private, and beautifully placed just moments from the life and charm of this historic district. For the discerning buyer seeking architecture with integrity, space to grow, and a setting that speaks of understated distinction, Garth on Knighton Road is a rare and remarkable offering.
