Description

Occupying a commanding elevated position with breathtaking panoramic views across the Wreake Valley, The Barn is an exceptional six-bedroom detached country residence set within approximately two acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, with a further 7.14 acres of adjoining pasture available by separate negotiation.

Approached via a long, tree-lined driveway, the property enjoys complete privacy whilst remaining just moments from the heart of the highly sought-after village of Thrussington. Extending to over 3,600 sq ft, the home offers an outstanding balance of character, space and versatility, making it perfectly suited to modern family living.

At the heart of the home, a striking reception hall with an elegant oak staircase leads to five beautifully proportioned reception rooms, each designed to offer flexibility for both everyday family life and entertaining. The bespoke kitchen, handcrafted by Jeffrey Stone Design of Stamford, combines timeless craftsmanship with contemporary practicality, connecting effortlessly to the dining room and impressive south-facing orangery, where floor-to-ceiling glazing frames uninterrupted views across the gardens.

The first floor offers six generous double bedrooms, including a superb principal suite with ensuite shower room, a second ensuite guest bedroom, and a luxurious family bathroom with a five-piece suite. Every bedroom enjoys an attractive outlook across the surrounding gardens or open countryside.

Outside, the landscaped grounds extend to approximately two acres, incorporating sweeping lawns, mature specimen trees, an orchard and generous south-facing terraces that provide the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining while enjoying the spectacular rural backdrop.

A particular highlight is the detached double garage with a beautifully presented self-contained annexe above, complete with its own living accommodation, kitchen and shower room—ideal for multi-generational living, guests or independent working. A separate detached studio, converted from a shipping container, provides further flexible space for a home office, gym or creative workspace.

For purchasers seeking a more substantial country holding, an adjoining 7.14 acres of pasture is available by separate negotiation, creating the opportunity to acquire an estate of almost nine acres in total.

Despite its wonderfully private setting, Thrussington offers an excellent range of local amenities including a village pub, deli, tearoom, primary school and church, whilst providing convenient access to Leicester, Loughborough, Nottingham and Melton Mowbray. Leicester railway station offers direct services to London St Pancras, and the M1 and M69 are both within easy reach.

Offered to the market with no onward chain, The Barn presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the area's most impressive country homes, combining exceptional privacy, outstanding views and an enviable village setting.
