Home Close Road, Houghton On The Hill, LE7 9GT
Occupying a peaceful position within the sought-after east Leicestershire village of Houghton on the Hill, this beautifully modernised detached bungalow offers stylish, low-maintenance living with thoughtfully redesigned interiors, landscaped gardens and a superb office/garden room ideal for modern lifestyles.
Extending to approximately 1,012 sq. ft., the property has been comprehensively upgraded throughout to create a home perfectly suited to downsizers, retirees or buyers seeking single-storey living without compromise. The interiors combine contemporary finishes with warm, inviting styling, whilst large windows throughout provide an excellent sense of natural light.
The welcoming entrance hall gives access to a spacious open-plan sitting and dining room, a superb dual-purpose entertaining space finished with Amtico flooring, contemporary décor and a striking media wall. Sliding patio doors connect directly onto the rear patio, creating an effortless flow between inside and out and allowing the garden to become a natural extension of the living space during the warmer months. The loft space is fully boarded with electric lighting and accessed via an excellent loft ladder, providing highly practical additional storage.
The recently refitted kitchen has been stylishly appointed with an excellent range of sage green shaker-style units complemented by stone work surfaces, gold hardware and a Belfast sink with matching mixer tap. Integrated Bosch appliances include an oven, four-ring gas hob and extractor hood, whilst a plumbed-in American-style fridge freezer is also included. Dual-aspect windows provide excellent natural light and attractive views across the garden.
All three bedrooms are generous doubles, each beautifully presented and individually styled. The principal bedroom enjoys a particularly spacious feel with a striking panelled feature wall, whilst the second bedroom offers excellent proportions and versatility for guests or family living. Bedroom three is currently arranged as a stylish home office/snug, demonstrating the flexibility of the accommodation for modern buyers.
The bathroom has been luxuriously upgraded with high-quality contemporary fittings, including a bath with drench shower above, stylish vanity storage, statement tiling and a heated towel rail, complemented by a separate WC.
Outside, the property continues to impress. To the front is a driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles alongside access to the tandem garage with electric door, power and lighting, as well as an Ohme electric vehicle charging point. Attached to the garage is a highly useful office/garden room with Wi-Fi connectivity and wall-mounted electric heating, making it perfectly suited for year-round remote working, hobbies or additional reception space. External security cameras are also fitted.
The rear gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to create a private and peaceful setting, featuring patio seating areas, established planting and a raised lawn bordered by mature shrubs and flowering beds. With a north-easterly orientation, the garden enjoys pleasant morning and daytime sun whilst remaining manageable and well-screened.
Houghton on the Hill remains one of east Leicestershire’s most desirable villages, appreciated for its strong community feel, countryside surroundings and excellent access into Leicester, Uppingham and Market Harborough. The village itself offers a range of day-to-day amenities including a village store, public houses, church and primary school, whilst nearby road links make commuting straightforward.
The property is offered with no onward chain, whilst much of the furniture is also available by separate negotiation.
