4 bed detached house for sale

Greenwood Street, Oakham LE15

£600,000 - £635,000 (Guide Price)

Not all modern homes are created equal. And not every recently built home enjoys quite the same level of privacy. Constructed in 2023 and subsequently upgraded throughout by its current owners, 63 Greenwood Street is an exceptional four-bedroom detached home occupying an enviable position at the end of a private no-through access road, on the edge of a sought-after modern development.

Enjoying an attractive open front aspect and a beautifully landscaped rear garden that is not overlooked, the property offers approximately 1,631 sq ft of thoughtfully arranged accommodation, combining contemporary design with a particularly appealing setting. Behind its handsome red-brick exterior lies an impressive open-plan kitchen and dining room, a generous separate living room, dedicated study, four well-proportioned bedrooms and beautifully appointed bathrooms.

With a detached garage, generous driveway parking and an EV charging point, the property combines the practical advantages of modern construction with thoughtful improvements and a position that sets it apart from many other homes within the development.

An Attractive Welcome

The property is approached via a private no-through access road, enjoying a favourable position towards the edge of the development. Its attractive open front aspect provides a welcome sense of space, while the handsome red-brick elevations, traditional architectural detailing and neatly maintained frontage create an appealing first impression.

A generous driveway provides off-road parking and access to the detached garage, with the additional convenience of an EV charging point. Stepping inside, a welcoming entrance hall provides access to the principal ground-floor accommodation, with a staircase rising to the first floor.

The interiors have been thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, with a cohesive decorative scheme, attractive finishes and carefully considered details creating a stylish yet comfortable environment. Throughout the property, there is a pleasing sense that the owners have taken an already attractive modern home and made it distinctly their own.

The Heart Of The Home

If there is one room that captures the appeal of 63 Greenwood Street particularly well, it is the impressive living-kitchen. Measuring approximately 18'10" x 18'5", this substantial open-plan space has been designed to accommodate everything from relaxed family breakfasts to evenings entertaining friends.

The kitchen incorporates an extensive range of contemporary cabinetry, complemented by elegant work surfaces, integrated appliances and a substantial central island. The island provides generous preparation space, valuable additional storage and informal seating, creating a natural gathering point for family and friends.

Stylish pendant lighting adds an attractive finishing touch, while the carefully considered arrangement provides plenty of room for cooking, dining and socialising. The dining area comfortably accommodates a substantial table, making the room equally suited to everyday family meals and more formal occasions.

Large bifold doors open directly onto the rear terrace, allowing natural light into the room and providing attractive views across the landscaped garden. During the warmer months, opening the doors creates a wonderful connection between the interior and outside, with the terrace becoming a natural extension of the dining space.

The privacy of the rear garden is a particularly appealing feature, allowing the living-kitchen to enjoy an attractive outlook without being overlooked by neighbouring properties. It is a room that works particularly well for modern family life, whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee, preparing dinner or entertaining friends around the kitchen island.

A Little Space To Yourself

Positioned separately from the kitchen and dining room, the living room provides a particularly comfortable space for relaxation. Measuring approximately 18'10" x 12', this generous reception room extends from the front to the rear of the property, benefiting from windows to the front and French doors opening onto the garden.

Its dual-aspect arrangement allows natural light to fill the room, while the generous proportions comfortably accommodate substantial seating arrangements. The attractive decorative finishes create a calm and welcoming atmosphere, making it an inviting room for family evenings or quieter moments away from the main kitchen and dining space.

One of the benefits of this property's layout is that the principal living areas can function independently. The kitchen can remain the sociable heart of the home while the living room offers somewhere quieter to unwind.

A separate study provides another valuable space, particularly for those working from home. With its own window and sufficient room for a desk and storage, it offers a dedicated working environment without having to sacrifice one of the bedrooms.

The ground floor also includes a practical utility room, providing additional laundry facilities and storage, together with a conveniently positioned cloakroom.

Four Bedrooms & A Beautiful Principal Suite

The first floor continues the property's emphasis on generous proportions and thoughtful presentation. A spacious landing provides access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom, with an attractive window seat creating a particularly charming feature.

The principal bedroom is especially impressive, measuring approximately 15'3" x 18'9". Beautifully presented, the room incorporates extensive fitted wardrobes and a dedicated dressing area, providing excellent storage while retaining a comfortable sense of space.

There is ample room for a substantial bed and additional furniture, with the carefully chosen decorative finishes creating an inviting and peaceful atmosphere. An adjoining en-suite shower room has been finished in a contemporary style, incorporating a shower enclosure, wash basin and WC.

The three remaining bedrooms are well proportioned and offer flexibility for family members or guests. Two benefit from fitted wardrobes, while the fourth bedroom could also serve as an additional home office, nursery or hobbies room if required.

The family bathroom provides both a bath and separate shower enclosure, together with a wash basin and WC, offering a particularly practical arrangement for family life.

A Private Garden Designed To Be Enjoyed

Outside, the property benefits from a beautifully landscaped and fully enclosed rear garden, which enjoys an excellent degree of privacy and is not overlooked by neighbouring properties. The current owners have thoughtfully arranged the garden to provide an attractive balance between open lawn, established planting and dedicated entertaining spaces.

A substantial paved terrace immediately adjoining the house creates a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, particularly during the warmer months when the bifold doors from the kitchen and dining room can be opened. The central lawn provides space for children to play or simply enjoy the outdoors, while attractive raised borders introduce colour, structure and seasonal interest.

An additional private decked seating area offers a more intimate setting, ideal for relaxing with friends or enjoying a quiet evening outside. Enclosed by a combination of brick walling and fencing, the garden provides a particularly secluded environment, with the absence of overlooking from neighbouring properties adding considerably to its appeal.

With its carefully considered landscaping, entertaining terrace and separate decked seating area, this is a garden that feels like a natural extension of the home. Importantly, much of the work involved in creating this attractive outdoor space has already been undertaken by the current owners.

A side gate provides convenient access, while the detached garage, generous driveway parking and EV charging point complete the external accommodation.

Oakham On Your Doorstep

One of the property's many advantages is its position within walking distance of Oakham town centre. As Rutland's historic county town, Oakham offers an attractive combination of traditional market-town character, independent shops, restaurants, cafés and everyday amenities.

The town is particularly appealing to families, with a choice of educational facilities, including well-regarded state and independent schools. Oakham Railway Station provides regional connections towards Leicester and Peterborough, while the surrounding road network offers convenient access to Stamford, Uppingham and the wider East Midlands.

For those who enjoy spending time outdoors, Rutland Water is within easy reach, offering opportunities for walking, cycling, sailing, fishing and wildlife watching.
