Substantially Extended Five-Bedroom Detached Family Home on a Corner Plot

Occupying a corner position in a popular part of Broughton Astley, this substantially extended and comprehensively renovated detached family home offers an impressive amount of living and bedroom space, together with a wraparound garden, ample driveway parking and a beautifully presented interior.

Approaching the property you are greeted with mature hedging framing the front and side of the home and a driveway providing parking for several vehicles

The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the rest of the property, with tasteful décor and a high standard of presentation throughout. There is useful storage, stairs rising to the first floor and access to the downstairs WC.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive open-plan living dining kitchen. A bright and sociable space, it benefits from dual-aspect windows and bi-folding doors opening directly onto the garden, creating a wonderful connection between the house and outside space.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully fitted with Shaker-style units, wooden work surfaces and a Belfast sink, complemented by a central island with breakfast bar seating. There is space for a Range-style cooker and an American-style fridge freezer, while the generous proportions allow plenty of room for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen flows naturally through to the garden room, currently used as a dining area, making this a versatile space that can adapt to the needs of the family. Double doors from the kitchen lead into the separate lounge.

The lounge is a particularly generous room, with French doors opening onto the garden and a log-burning stove creating a cosy focal point. With plenty of space for comfortable seating, this provides a quieter alternative to the sociable open-plan living area.

A useful utility room sits just off the kitchen and provides plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. The utility also provides access to the fifth bedroom, an extremely versatile room which could be used as a guest bedroom, teenage suite, home office, gym or additional living space. The room benefits from its own wet room and WC, making it particularly useful for those looking for flexible accommodation or multi-generational living.

The first-floor landing leads to four further bedrooms. Three are well-proportioned double bedrooms, while the fourth bedroom is currently arranged as a dressing room but would accommodate a double bed if required.

The principal bedroom is a real feature of the first floor. Generously proportioned, it includes a dedicated dressing area, Juliette balcony and a stylish en-suite shower room, creating a private and spacious retreat away from the main living areas.

The family bathroom has been finished to a high standard and features a freestanding bath, separate shower enclosure, vanity wash hand basin and WC.

Outside, the garden wraps around the side and rear of the property and is enclosed by fencing and mature hedging, providing a good degree of privacy. There are areas of lawn alongside space for outdoor dining and a designated area for a hot tub. A timber-built bar adds another entertaining space and makes the garden particularly well suited to family gatherings and summer evenings.

The combination of the corner plot, substantial extension and carefully considered layout gives this home an unusual amount of accommodation for a detached property. It offers the flexibility to suit a growing family, those working from home, multi-generational living or simply anyone looking for a home with plenty of space.

The property is situated in Broughton Astley, within easy reach of the village centre and Orchard Primary School, with the village providing a range of everyday amenities, shops and facilities.
