Location
Sileby is a charming village in Loughborough, offering a blend of countryside tranquillity and modern convenience. Nestled along the River Soar, it boasts scenic walking routes, a strong sense of community, and a range of local amenities, including shops, pubs and leisure facilities. With excellent transport links to Leicester and Loughborough, it provides easy access to larger towns while maintaining its peaceful village atmosphere. Its rich history, welcoming environment, and proximity to green spaces such as Bradgate Park and Swithland Wood make it a desirable place to call home.
Ground floor
Entering the property through the front porch, the layout immediately branches in two directions. To the left of the hallway is a practical utility room, fitted with white tiled flooring, a sink, and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. Leading off the utility is a downstairs WC, fitted with a white low level toilet and ceramic wash hand basin, complemented by beige tiled walls.
The kitchen sits at the front of the property and features white square tiled flooring, sleek white gloss base and wall cabinets, and a striking black worktop with silver hardware. Integrated appliances include an oven and gas hob, along with a double drinks fridge, while a separate pantry offers valuable additional storage.
Positioned behind the kitchen is the dining room, a generously sized space finished with wooden laminate flooring and traditional details including picture rails, coving and a decorative ceiling rose, creating a warm and inviting setting for family dining and entertaining.
To the right-hand side of the home is the lounge, a characterful room featuring beautiful wooden parquet flooring, picture rails and coving. A standout feature is the grand beige stone effect fireplace with mantel, complemented by a log burner style stove that adds both warmth and charm.
Spanning the entire rear of the property is an impressive full-width extension, accessed from both the lounge and dining room. This bright and versatile space benefits from wooden laminate flooring, recessed spotlights, multiple skylights and two wall radiators. Two sets of bifold doors open onto the composite decking area, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living and allowing plenty of natural light to fill the room.
First floor
The staircase rises from the centre of the property to a landing finished with beige carpeting and decorative dado rails.
At the front of the property sits the large family bathroom, beautifully appointed with white gloss wall tiles and contrasting black gloss floor tiles. The suite includes a spacious double shower, a spa bath, WC and a fitted sink with a black stone worktop.
Bedroom three is also located at the front of the property and is a well-proportioned room with fitted wardrobes and ample space to comfortably accommodate a double bed.
To the rear of the home are two generous double bedrooms, both enjoying pleasant views over the garden. The primary bedroom features fitted wardrobes, a fitted bed surround and a matching built-in vanity area, along with wooden laminate flooring and a large window overlooking the rear garden. The second rear bedroom also benefits from cream built-in wardrobes and dual aspect windows looking out to the side and rear gardens, and is finished with dark grey carpeting.
Outside
The property sits on a generous plot with a large driveway providing extensive off-road parking.
A particular highlight of the home is the range of former farm outbuildings, which include a double garage with electric garage door, two former stables and several additional storage areas, offering excellent versatility for storage, workshops or hobby space.
The expansive rear garden provides a wonderful outdoor setting, featuring composite decking directly outside the extension, leading onto a large lawned area. At the far end of the garden is a second patio area, ideal for additional seating or entertaining, while the surrounding space offers plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors in a peaceful and private environment.
