Location
Set in the heart of the Charnwood Forest district, this impressive residence offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial home within one of Leicestershire's most desirable postcodes. The borough of Charnwood is renowned for its rolling countryside, mature woodland, and conservation areas — offering the perfect balance of semi-rural living with excellent transport links to Leicester, Loughborough and beyond.
Nestled within this beautiful landscape is the sought-after village of Rothley — an historic and affluent village that has retained its charm while offering modern amenities. Characterised by its period architecture, boutique shops, popular pubs, and strong sense of community, Rothley is particularly well-regarded for its excellent schooling, rail links and accessibility to both the M1 and A46
ground floor
Step inside this impressive home to discover a thoughtfully designed ground floor that offers both generous proportions and superb versatility — perfect for modern family living, entertaining, and working from home.
At the heart of the property lies a remarkable 31-foot main lounge, a statement space filled with natural light thanks to expansive bi-folding doors that open onto the rear garden. A charming log-burning stove provides a cosy focal point, blending comfort with contemporary style and making this a perfect space for relaxing year-round.
To the front of the property, a second stylish sitting room offers an inviting and more intimate setting, also featuring a log burner, ideal for unwinding on quieter evenings or creating a designated snug or media room.
The dining kitchen serves as a functional and sociable hub for day-to-day family life, offering ample room for casual meals, morning coffee, or entertaining while overlooking the rear garden.
For more formal occasions, the separate dining room offers refined space ideal for hosting dinner parties or large family gatherings, with flexibility to repurpose as a playroom or second office if desired.
Further enhancing the practicality of the ground floor is a dedicated study, ideal for remote working or quiet study, alongside a generous utility room which keeps laundry and household tasks discreetly tucked away — helping maintain the home's clean and elegant flow.
This floor combines light, warmth, and intelligent layout, offering everything a growing or multi-generational family might need, while still allowing scope to personalise
first floor
The first floor is accessed via a wide, central galleried landing, adding a sense of grandeur and openness to the upper level of the home. This bright and spacious landing connects to four generously proportioned double bedrooms, offering a thoughtful layout designed to suit both family living and guest accommodation.
The principal suite is a standout feature — a beautifully appointed space that combines luxury, privacy and practicality. It includes a well-sized double bedroom, an ensuite bathroom, and a bespoke walk-in dressing room with fitted storage, creating a tranquil retreat at the end of the day.
A second large double bedroom also benefits from its own modern ensuite shower room, making it ideal for guests, teenagers, or extended family.
Two further double bedrooms offer excellent space, with views over the leafy surroundings. These are served by a stylish family bathroom, complete with high-quality fittings and a contemporary finish.
This floor has been carefully designed to balance personal space with family functionality, offering comfort, flow and an abundance of natural light throughout. Whether you're hosting guests, raising a family, or seeking rooms for hobbies or home working, the first floor provides the flexibility and quality expected of a property in this prestigious location.
Outside
The Spinney is set within a substantial and private plot approaching 0.30 acres, offering a wonderful sense of space and seclusion rarely found in such a prestigious village setting.
To the front, the property is accessed via a private driveway, providing secure, off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leading to a detached double garage — ideal for storage, hobbies, or conversion (subject to planning) if additional space is ever desired.
The rear garden is a true highlight of the home — a tranquil and beautifully established outdoor space, bordered by mature trees and landscaped planting that provide year-round interest and complete privacy. With a generous expanse of lawn, patio seating areas, and space for entertaining, relaxing, or children's play, the garden offers versatility to suit a wide range of lifestyles. The garden offers a sense of calm and connection to nature that complements the rural charm of Swithland Lane.
With ample room to create a home office pod, studio, or extend the existing living space (STPP), the grounds offer not just immediate enjoyment but long-term potential to enhance and personalise.
This idyllic outside space, combined with the impressive internal proportions and premium location, makes The Spinney a truly rare offering within the Rothley market.
