About this listing

Finding a substantial Victorian home with such generous accommodation, an established garden and the convenience of town centre living is a rare combination. With five bedrooms across two floors, two impressive reception rooms and a superb extended dining kitchen, this is a home that offers the space for families to grow, entertain and enjoy life together. The location is equally appealing. Loughborough's coffee shops, restaurants, weekly market and everyday amenities are all within easy walking distance, whilst Loughborough University and a choice of schools are also conveniently accessible. An additional practical advantage is the availability of on-street parking directly outside the house, something not enjoyed in the same way by properties on the opposite side of the road. From the welcoming entrance porch, an ornate glazed doorway opens into a hallway showing Victorian character. Decorative arches, ceiling cornicing, deep skirting boards and picture rails are wonderful reminders of the home's heritage, with these period features continuing throughout the accommodation. The two reception rooms are particularly impressive in their proportions. To the front, a cosy sitting room features a walk-in bay window, stripped timber flooring and an open fireplace, creating a wonderfully inviting space. The second reception room is a through room linking the kitchen, with a wood-burning stove, exposed ceiling beam and feature glazed panels to the staircase. There is also access to a useful cellar, whilst a separate utility room with a secondary sink, storage and newly installed central heating boiler sits alongside a convenient ground-floor WC. One of the home's most appealing features is undoubtedly the substantial extended dining kitchen, a wonderful space designed for modern family life and entertaining. A large central island creates a natural gathering point, complemented by granite work surfaces, a double oven, five-ring hob, extractor and integrated dishwasher. The room comfortably accommodates both a generous dining table and a relaxed seating area, making it as suitable for family breakfasts as it is for entertaining friends. Interesting ceiling lines, three skylights and additional sash windows introduce an abundance of natural light, whilst bi-fold doors open directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The generous proportions continue upstairs, with four bedrooms on the first floor offering excellent flexibility for family living, guests or home working. Two bedrooms overlook the front, including a particularly spacious double and a smaller room currently used as a home office. To the rear are two further bedrooms, both substantial doubles with the far rear room enjoying beautiful stripped timber flooring and lovely views across the garden. A family bathroom with a bath and shower above serves this floor. The second floor provides a principal bedroom retreat, enjoying elevated views over the surrounding gardens towards the cricket ground. With triple fitted wardrobes, a large skylight and separate shower facilities, this is a lovely private space. A substantial loft storage area is also accessed from the landing. For all the space and character inside, the beautiful rear garden is perhaps the property's greatest surprise. Exceptionally generous for a home within walking distance of Loughborough town centre, the garden is wonderfully established, with mature trees, colourful herbaceous borders, extensive lawns and several delightful places to sit and enjoy the surroundings. Immediately outside the dining kitchen, a spacious patio is shaded by a mature cherry tree, creating a lovely setting for summer entertaining. Steps along the lawn, where established planting provides a wonderful sense of maturity and privacy. The garden continues and widens behind the neighbouring property, revealing further lawned areas, a child’s Wendy house, a circular pebbled stone feature, greenhouses and a timber garden shed with power. At the far end, a productive vegetable garden with generous growing beds sits alongside a secluded seating area positioned to enjoy the morning sunshine. Gated access leads onto the adjoining cricket ground, adding another distinctive feature to this remarkable outdoor space. Whether you're a keen gardener, have children who love being outdoors or simply enjoy entertaining, this is a garden that offers endless possibilities. For buyers searching for a large five-bedroom Victorian house in Loughborough, with period features, spacious family accommodation, a contemporary open-plan dining kitchen and an exceptional mature garden, this is a home that deserves to be experienced in person.
