5 bed detached house for sale

Wreake Drive, Rearsby LE7

Stunning Five-Bedroom Village Home | Fully Renovated & Extended in 2021 | Open-Plan Living with Countryside Views.

An exceptional family home, comprehensively renovated and extended in 2021 to an exacting standard. This impressive property boasts breathtaking views across open countryside towards the village of Thrussington, and a truly show-stopping open-plan kitchen.

The home makes a superb first impression from the moment you step into the spacious entrance hall, where sightlines draw you through to the extended dining area and rear garden beyond. The hallway includes a dedicated area for coats and shoes, a contemporary wall-mounted radiator, and access to both the formal sitting room and a versatile family room/home office.

The formal sitting room features a large picture window overlooking the driveway and is beautifully finished with bespoke fitted bookshelves and a multi-fuel burning stove as the focal point. To the front of the house, a separate family room—currently used as a home office—offers excellent flexibility and could equally serve as a playroom, TV snug or study.

The heart of the home is the outstanding extended open-plan kitchen, dining and family living area. This remarkable space is flooded with natural light via bi-fold doors, two roof lanterns and rear-facing windows, all framing wonderful garden views. The kitchen itself is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units, a central island with breakfast bar, contemporary wall-mounted radiators, a Rangemaster gas cooker, integrated microwave, full-height fridge and freezer, and a built-in dishwasher. The extension benefits from underfloor heating and provides generous zones for dining, relaxing and children’s play, with recessed lighting adding to the overall wow factor.

Leading from the kitchen is a well-appointed utility room with fitted units, sink and drainer, under-stairs storage and housing for the boiler, along with a separate cloakroom comprising WC, vanity wash basin, radiator and side window.

To the first floor are five bedrooms, all enjoying impressive views, with open farmland stretching towards Thrussington. The principal bedroom suite, created as part of the 2021 extension above the garage, is a particularly striking feature. This substantial room enjoys a large rear picture window, an additional front window, two skylights and a vaulted ceiling, creating a light-filled and luxurious space. Fitted his-and-hers wardrobes are complemented by a beautifully finished en-suite shower room with double walk-in shower, rainfall and handheld showerheads, floating vanity basin, WC, heated towel rail and rear-facing window.

Bedroom two is a generous double room to the front, while bedrooms three and four also accommodate double beds and enjoy front-facing windows. Bedroom five is a well-proportioned single room, perfectly positioned to take in the rear countryside views.

The family bathroom mirrors the contemporary style of the en-suite and features an oversized vanity basin, wall-mounted storage, WC, bath with rainfall and handheld shower over, a large heated towel rail and a rear-facing window.

Outside, the landscaped rear garden offers a spacious patio running the width of the house, leading down to a lawned garden with uninterrupted views across surrounding farmland—an idyllic backdrop that truly captures village life at its best. To the front, a block-paved driveway provides ample off-road parking for several vehicles, complemented by raised flower beds and a central slate feature.

The garage is larger than average, fitted with power and lighting, and benefits from a rear courtesy door providing direct access into the kitchen/diner.

Overall, homes of this size, quality and location are rarely available in the area. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this outstanding property has to offer.
