Description

A substantial detached bungalow set on a generous plot in a highly sought-after village location. Well maintained throughout, the property offers excellent potential for further modernisation or reconfiguration to create additional bedrooms, making it an ideal long-term family home. Early internal viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the scale and quality of accommodation on offer.

The Property
An enclosed porch opens into a spacious and welcoming entrance hall, complete with a large built-in airing cupboard. To the left, the dining room enjoys a front-facing aspect and flows seamlessly via an archway into the breakfast kitchen. Overlooking the rear garden, the kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, incorporating a Neff double electric oven, ceramic hob, and space for a dishwasher.

A door leads to an extensive, irregular-shaped utility room stretching from front to rear, offering excellent practicality with external access at both ends, a sink, oil-fired boiler, and ample space for multiple appliances. Internal access to the garage is also provided.

Positioned to the right of the hallway, the sitting room is a bright and generously proportioned space, featuring a bay window overlooking the garden and a fireplace with coal-effect fire. Sliding doors open into a centrally positioned garden room, which in turn benefits from patio doors onto the rear garden.

The spacious principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden and includes fitted wardrobes and a vanity unit with wash basin. A second double bedroom also features built-in storage and a vanity wash basin. The well-sized family bathroom is fitted with a suite comprising bath, separate shower, pedestal wash basin, WC, and bidet. A separate cloakroom with WC and wash basin completes the internal accommodation.

Outside
The walled front garden is accessed via both vehicular five-bar gate and pedestrian gate, leading onto a tarmac driveway that provides ample off-road parking and access to the double garage. The remainder is mainly laid to lawn with well-stocked borders, and gated side access leads to the rear.

The private, south-westerly facing rear garden is a particular feature, enjoying a high degree of seclusion. A full-width block-paved patio provides an ideal entertaining space, with steps leading through attractively planted, raised borders to a lawned area with a stepping stone pathway. The garden is richly stocked with a variety of shrubs, ornamental trees, and flowering plants.

The double garage benefits from an electrically operated up-and-over door, with a rear courtesy door leading to a workshop and providing further access to the garden. An outbuilding houses the oil tank.

Location
Bruntingthorpe is a desirable village in south Leicestershire, surrounded by attractive open countryside offering excellent walking opportunities. Local amenities include a pub, restaurant, garage, village hall, and church.

The nearby market towns of Lutterworth (approximately 11 miles west) and Market Harborough (approximately 12 miles east) provide a wider range of amenities, with Market Harborough offering a mainline rail service to London St Pancras in around one hour.

Well-regarded neighbouring villages include Gilmorton, Arnesby, Fleckney, Shearsby, Peatling Parva, and Peatling Magna, many of which offer primary schooling and a selection of local amenities including pubs, restaurants, and a post office.
