Hancocks are delighted to present this beautifully positioned four double bedroom detached home, set within an approximate 0.5-acre plot in the highly sought-after village of Ab Kettleby. Occupying a peaceful edge-of-village setting, the property enjoys immediate access to open countryside, while remaining within walking distance of a well-regarded primary school and local pub. Thoughtfully designed and well maintained, the house offers light-filled, versatile accommodation suited to both modern family living and entertaining.
Accommodation
A glazed entrance porch leads into a welcoming hallway, where wood-effect Karndean flooring and solid internal doors set the tone for the quality throughout. The layout flows naturally, with access to all principal ground floor rooms, a useful under-stairs cupboard, and a well-appointed cloakroom.
The lounge is a bright, dual-aspect space centred around a multi-fuel stove, creating a comfortable and inviting setting year-round. To the rear, a garden room/snug provides a more informal living area, with bifold doors opening directly onto the patio and garden beyond.
At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family space. Designed with both practicality and sociability in mind, the kitchen is fitted with a range of units, integrated Bosch oven, induction hob, hot tap and a central breakfast bar with wine fridge. The adjoining dining and seating areas offer generous proportions, easily accommodating larger gatherings while maintaining a relaxed, everyday feel, all with views across the garden.
A separate utility room, with adjoining pantry and rear porch, provides valuable additional storage and keeps day-to-day living neatly organised.
Upstairs, the property offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are all spacious and served by a modern family bathroom, with several rooms enjoying far-reaching views over open countryside.
Outside
The front of the property is approached via a generous driveway providing ample off-road parking with EV charging point, bordered by neatly maintained lawns and framed by a mature wisteria climbing across the front elevation. Solar panels are installed and owned, with the benefit of battery storage.
The rear garden is a particular feature, thoughtfully arranged to offer both lifestyle and practicality. A substantial outbuilding provides a versatile space currently used as a home office/summerhouse, complete with a small kitchen area and WC, and its own seating terrace.
A separate covered entertaining area has been designed for year-round use, incorporating a bar, built-in BBQ, sink and preparation space, alongside a generous seating area.
The garden itself is laid out with raised beds planted with a variety of established shrubs and flowers, leading through to a more productive area with fruit trees including apple, pear and plum. A further section houses two sheds and additional storage.
Ab Kettleby is ideally positioned approximately 10 minutes from Melton Mowbray, with convenient access to the A46 for Nottingham, Leicester, Loughborough & Grantham.
