About
Positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after village of Houghton on the Hill, this detached four-bedroom family home occupies a generous plot and offers excellent scope for updating and extension (subject to the necessary consents).
Location - Houghton on the Hill is located approximately seven miles due east of the city centre and is surrounded by some of Leicestershire's most attractive rolling countryside.
The village has a strong community spirit and plenty of amenities including pubs, an interesting mix of sporting and social facilities and a popular primary school.
Accommodation - A UPVC porch leads into a spacious hallway with an understairs storage cupboard and cloakroom.
To the front, there is a study, while the main living room is of generous proportions, featuring a bay window, a brick-surround fireplace and sliding doors opening to the rear garden.
An archway leads through to the dining room, which enjoys views over the garden.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of white eye and base level units with ample work surfaces, a double oven, gas hob and breakfast bar, with an adjoining utility room providing further storage, plumbing, and access to the garage and garden.
To the first floor, a landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms.
The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a rear aspect, while bedrooms two and three are also doubles with storage. The fourth bedroom is a large single.
The family bathroom is equipped with a corner bath, separate shower, WC and a wash basin.
Outside - The property is approached via an attractive in-and-out driveway, providing parking for multiple vehicles and access to a double garage.
The frontage is enhanced by a lawned garden with mature trees and shrubs, with gated side access leading to the rear.
The rear garden is particularly private, with established trees and hedging creating a secluded setting.
Mainly laid to lawn with a patio area, it offers excellent potential for landscaping or extension.
