5 bed detached house

Located in a highly regarded village in the Charnwood Forest, Herons Rest is a beautiful and historic stone under reed thatch cottage dating back to 1844. The property occupies approximately 0.3 of an acre of south-westerly facing grounds, private gravel-laid driveway, and a substantial open double garage with a workshop/garden room. The main house features exceptionally high local stone construction under a reed thatch roof, with a beautifully curated space across two floors, seamlessly blending historic and modern elements. The interior includes flexible accommodation, comprising four/five bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a principal bedroom suite with a stunning glazed gable and French doors leading out onto a south-facing terrace, and a three-zoned family living kitchen with handmade in-frame shaker style cabinetry and an AGA range. The property also features wet-piped underfloor heating throughout the majority of the ground floor, plentiful storage, and a utility/wash room. The garden and grounds are fully landscaped and manicured, with terraces, lawns, a pergola, and a pretty timber-built summer house, as well as a babbling brook at the bottom of the garden.
