5 bed detached house for sale

Swithland Lane, Rothley LE7

Set back from the main road within a peaceful cul-de-sac, this extended four / five bedroom detached family home offers an exceptional amount of versatile living space, gated parking, a double garage, and an annex.

The property is approached via a private gated entrance with parking available outside the gates for visitors, and additional block-paved parking once inside. A double garage provides secure parking and storage.

A standout feature is the separate home office, accessed externally via full-length double doors through a carport. Currently used as a hair salon, this space includes its own toilet facilities—ideal for anyone working from home or running a business. This room has been converted from one half of the double garage.

Ground Floor
The front elevation boasts a stunning vaulted design with floor-to-ceiling glass. On entering, the tiled hallway with underfloor heating creates a welcoming first impression, flowing seamlessly into the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area.

The main family sitting room is a substantial space, currently arranged as an entertainment and games room, while a second reception at the rear opens to the garden via French doors.

The open-plan kitchen/diner runs the full depth of the home, with a pitched glass façade to the front and French doors at the rear. The kitchen features a central island with breakfast bar, extensive storage, and built-in appliances including a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, double oven, and microwave, complemented by a freestanding Britannia range cooker with Smeg hood. The dining area enjoys garden views and a wood-burning stove, creating a cosy family hub.

Additional ground floor features include a cloakroom/WC and a built-in storage cupboard.
