The property
Completed in 2015, Greenfield House has been a labour of love inspired by the owners' vision to create a unique house in a chalet style. Designed by an award-winning architect, the house was constructed in the Netherlands and assembled onsite. The house is a superb showcase of contemporary craftsmanship and design combining cutting-edge technology and artisanal detailing throughout.
The front door opens onto a ceramic-floored hallway and leads through to a beautiful contemporary kitchen with gloss white cabinetry, honey oak surrounds and quartz worktops. A large central island incorporates a breakfast bar and ceramic hob and the remainder of the well-appointed kitchen includes appliances by Miele, Smeg, and Siemens. Beyond the kitchen is the dining room, the entrance of which is framed by a burr oak arch, which combines oak flooring with exposed brickwork and historic beams. Adjacent is the 'Great Room' which forms the heart of the house. This impressive space is defined by its high cedar ceilings, Venetian plaster walls, and a bespoke fireplace that provides central focus. Concealed within the wall, a cinema television enhances the modern luxury of the setting, while the large Douglas fir windows and cedar shutters frame the room with natural light. The sunroom and adjoining bar complete the downstairs reception areas. The ground floor also includes a bedroom with countryside views and a nearby bathroom and separate WC, offering flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. To the right of the hall, the utility room provides storage and has a Belfast sink.
Upstairs, the library and minstrel’s gallery overlook the living spaces with vaulted ceilings, timber beams, and full-height windows. The guest suite has oak flooring, built-in wardrobes, and a marble-finished en suite. The principal suite has walk-in wardrobes, bespoke fitted furniture and a private balcony overlooking the countryside. Stairs rise to a mezzanine dressing room with integrated storage. The en suite features a Jacuzzi bath, twin basins, and a shower and steam room. Lastly, a study, with full-height glazing, and floor-to-ceiling shelving provides the option of a home office or fourth bedroom.
Outside
Access to the house is off the A6 and 360m metres along a gated, Council adopted country lane. A 5-bar gate with pedestrian side gate opens onto an extensive parking area with space for over a dozen vehicles and an electric charge point. The immediate garden to the north and south of the house is set to lawn bordered by mature trees. To the west is a raised timber decked area, accessed via a stone terrace directly from the house, which incorporates a chalet/office, a bar and central water feature.
To the north of the driveway and accessed via a 5- bar gate are two fenced paddocks serviced by a large barn and adjacent workshop, two stables and a storeroom.
Location
Greenfield House is situated in the rural hamlet of
Debdale just outside Kibworth. Kibworth Harcourt and close-by Kibworth Beauchamp offer an excellent range of amenities, including a primary and secondary school, public library and medical centres, along with a range of shops, including a post office and supermarket, pubs and restaurants. Both villages are renowned for their sense of community with cricket, bowling and tennis clubs, and a sports centre at Kibworth Beauchamp. There are numerous footpaths locally which are directly reached from Debdale Lane without the need to cross a main road.
Communication links are excellent with rail services to London St Pancras International from either Leicester or Market Harborough. An extensive East Midlands motorway network is approximately 12 miles away to the south at J20 of the M1 with the M69, M6, M42 and A14 all within easy reach. East Midlands Airport is at Junction 24 of the M1, Luton Airport at Junction 10a of the M1 or Birmingham Airport at Junction 6 on the M42.
