Property description
Holywell Farm is situated in rolling west Leicestershire countryside at the end of a half mile track. The farmhouse is believed to date back several centuries, although it has been largely rebuilt using reclaimed materials. Built of stone and brick under a graded slate roof the property offers the perfect compromise for those wanting an old property with all the convenience of a modern day home. Adjacent are three semi derelict barns (not available) that are currently going through planning process for residential conversion. There may be further development opportunities for Holywell Farm for those who wish to add additional living accommodation or create a separate annexe. The accommodation is arranged over three floors and includes three reception rooms, large dining kitchen, cloaks/wc and utility room. On the first floor are 4 double bedrooms (2 with en suite shower and 2 with space suitable for en suite showers) and a feature family bathroom. The master bedroom is particularly spacious and occupies the entire second floor with a large en suite and roof terrace enjoying stunning views over the surrounding countryside.
The property has been built to a high specification with solid oak internal doors, sealed unit double glazing, low voltage led lighting and under floor heating on all floors fuelled by a gas fired central heating boiler.
The property is situated within 1 mile of the centre of the village which has an impressive range of local amenities including shops, parish church, schooling, parks and is on a regular bus route to Leicester City Centre. There are numerous walks and bridleways and the village is ideally placed for fast access onto the M1, M69 and A46 Western Bypass.
