A once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a truly iconic home within the ever-popular village of Sutton Bonington. The Old Bakehouse is situated next door to the Trinity Methodist Church in the centre of the village and offers over 3,000 square feet of accommodation, a plot approaching half an acre with a wonderfully planted south facing rear garden which overlooks open fields to the rear.
This spectacular home would make an ideal purchase for growing or established families alike.
The home is situated in the centre of Sutton Bonington, which is a wonderful and highly sought-after area, located within approximately 6 miles of the major conurbation of Loughborough. Local amenities are plentiful and include Sutton Bonington Primary School, University of Nottingham Sutton Bonington Campus, Post Office, Library, Pasture Lane Convenience Store, the King’s Head Public House and The Anchor Inn. Further amenities such as supermarkets, shops, boutiques and restaurants can be found in nearby Loughborough and East Leake.
Public transport is well catered for by a regular bus service; commuter access to the M1 and A46 is excellent. Loughborough Railway Station is approximately 15 minutes away by car and offers links to London and Edinburgh. East Midlands Airport and East Midlands Parkway are also approximately 15 minutes away by car.
Upon entering the home you are greeted by a large reception space with open chimney breast and exposed original beams; the central reception naturally guides you to any of the study to the front elevation, the spacious formal lounge, open plan kitchen/dining/entertaining space, or to the first floor via the staircase.
The ground floor living accommodation is beautifully proportioned, the study offers a quiet place to work while being surrounded by character features including the exposed fireplace and beams. The formal lounge is an exceptional size and links the property through to further entertaining/reception space, again with original beams and a sizeable wood burner which makes the colder months a cosy joy. The kitchen/dining/entertaining space has been open planned and beautifully glazed to maximise the natural light coming from the southerly elevation and retains a characterful feel with Belfast sink and Aga (available by negotiation). An additional reception room, off the formal lounge, would make an ideal second office/study or a play/games room. The ground floor accommodation is finished with the handy addition of a sizeable utility room and W.C.
The first floor consists of five double bedrooms, the family bathroom and a refitted en-suite to the principal bedroom. The landing is flooded with natural light and offers exceptional views of the church and open fields to the rear.
Externally, the rear garden is of excellent size, south facing and very private, offering open views over neighbouring fields. There is a wonderful array of mature plants and trees, as well as a well-manicured lawn and borders. The paved patio seating area offers a lovely space to relax or entertain while the brick-built potting shed offers a perfect place for preparing next year’s blooms.
Parking is provided to the side of the property, where the driveway has an EV charger and can accommodate four vehicles comfortably; the double garage could also be used for parking or alternatively, very handy storage.
This is a property not to be missed so to avoid any disappointment, please contact John German East Leake office to arrange a viewing.
