Parts of the building date from the early 1700s, with features such as an original Inglenook fireplace and original doors.

The ground floor comprises an impressive entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, elegant drawing room, music room, breakfast room, kitchen, cellar, and two downstairs cloakrooms. On the first floor a split level landing leads to five bedrooms and a family bathroom. A guest bedroom has an en-suite shower room. An additional space, currently housing a boiler, could become another bathroom. Further attic rooms, currently accessed via open steps, could form two more double bedrooms and an additional loft room or en-suite. Delightfully planted mature gardens surround the house to the rear and side. A double gated entrance leads to a large cobbled courtyard which provides ample parking and offers a garage, brick built utility and garden store rooms. Available to the market for the first time in over 50 years with no upward chain and gas central heating throughout. Bentons strongly recommend internal inspection to appreciate the unique character and huge potential on offer. Location Kirby Muxloe offers a desirable blend of village charm and city access, with good local amenities, and whilst surrounded by countryside, allows swift access to both the M1 and Leicester city centre.

Nearby, the equally historic Bradgate Park, is an expanse of woodland and open spaces, perfect for a family walk, and making it a popular destination for wildlife enthusiasts.
