Welcome to Warbreck House, a unique, individual home built for, extended and enjoyed by the present owners for nearly 40 years, where tranquil, rural living combines with convenient access for Leicester, Great Glen schools, Market Harborough and Rutland.

Accommodation
Be prepared to be pleasantly surprised by the striking staircase and herringbone oak parquet flooring as you step in through the canopied front door of this charming home. To your right you will find the sitting room which feels bright and spacious and enjoys an attractive view of the landscaped garden beyond the window and bi-fold doors. An open fire set within a period-style surround provides the perfect focal point as well as warmth for those autumn and winter evenings. The dining rooms offers ample space for a variety of uses and provides further outdoor access to the dining terrace.

The kitchen has been re-fitted to provide a comprehensive range of units with plenty of storage and work surface space. Two bow windows flood the room with natural light, with paddock views to be enjoyed from the front. Integrated appliances include an AEG double oven, induction hob, with plumbing and space for a washing machine and dishwasher. The lobby beyond provides access to the guest cloakroom, re-fitted with a contemporary suite and utility/boiler room which houses the floor-standing oil-fired boiler.

The sense of space continues upstairs with a light and airy galleried landing. Here you will find four bedrooms and a dressing room, which could equally serve as a dressing room and, also offers scope to be converted into an ensuite bathroom. The main and guest bedrooms both enjoy panoramic countryside views to the west. The family bathroom has been re-fitted and re-configured to a shower room with walk-in double shower (with space to accommodate a bath) and wash hand basin. The WC is currently separate from the shower room.

Outside
Beyond the picket fence and five-bar gate you will find an attractive frontage with parking for two vehicles, and seating terrace which enjoys the morning sun, flanked by bedding areas, window boxes and hanging baskets. An extensive patio terrace to the side provides the perfect spot for private, al fresco dining, with further seating area where you can while away the hours with family and friends. There are steps up through the brick retaining wall to the manicured lawn which is flanked by bedding areas and a handy shed to the side.
