A Charming & Rather Unique Four-Bedroom Stable Conversion with Private Walled Gardens in the pretty East Leicestershire village of Keyham

Description

Tucked away in the picturesque and highly sought-after village of Keyham, this characterful four-bedroom stable conversion offers a rare opportunity to acquire a village home that blends characterful charm, and modern practicality. Originally part of Keyham Hall’s stables, the property was thoughtfully converted in the mid-1980s and has been beautifully maintained, now providing spacious and versatile living with a wonderful combination of characterful features and contemporary comfort.

 

From the moment you arrive, the attractive walled setting and charming gated entrance create an immediate sense of privacy and exclusivity. A hardstanding driveway leads through a striking archway behind cast iron gates between two single garages, opening into a cobbled off-road parking area with ample space for multiple vehicles. Stepping inside, the entrance porch leads into a large entrance hall, where a sense of space and warmth is immediately apparent. The hall offers access to the cloakroom and elegant glazed panel doors that open into the main living area, making this a welcoming and practical entrance to the home.

 

To the left of the hall, the large open-plan kitchen and dining room is a true highlight of the property, offering an inviting and sociable space. Thoughtfully designed, it features a range of refitted base and wall units, granite-effect work surfaces, and a high-quality Neff four-ring ceramic hob with an integrated extractor hood. Additional modern conveniences include a built-in Neff double electric oven and an integral dishwasher. A charming, exposed brick porthole window to the front aspect adds a delightful touch of character. The space is further enhanced by an exposed brick open chimney with a cast iron grate, bringing a rustic and homely charm, as well as a breakfast bar, perfect for casual dining or entertaining. From here, patio doors lead directly to the rear garden, flooding the space with natural light and providing a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A stable door also leads into the utility room, which offers additional storage, space for a freestanding fridge and freezer, and internal access into one of the garages.

 

The generously proportioned living room is a wonderful space to relax and unwind. Dual-aspect windows to the front and rear create a bright and airy atmosphere, while the feature Inglenook fireplace with a cast iron wood-burning stove and raised quarry-tiled hearth adds warmth and character. With patio doors opening to the rear garden, this space is ideal for both cosy nights in and entertaining guests.

 

A separate inner hallway leads to the property’s four well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom is a true retreat, featuring built-in fitted wardrobes, a large window overlooking the rear garden, and direct garden access via a private door. It also benefits from a spacious en-suite bathroom with a corner bath, bidet, low-level WC, and pedestal wash hand basin. The second bedroom is a comfortable double room, ideal for family members or guests, while the third bedroom, currently used as a study, offers a versatile space that could be transformed into a guest bedroom, home office, or hobby room. The fourth bedroom is another generously sized double room, providing further flexibility. A well-appointed family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms and is equipped with a shower cubicle with a Mira electric shower, a low-level WC, a pedestal wash hand basin, and a heated chrome towel rail radiator.

 

One of the true highlights of the property is the beautifully landscaped, private walled garden, offering a tranquil retreat with a perfect balance of low-maintenance greenery and charming features. A block-paved patio area provides an ideal setting for al fresco dining and summer entertaining, while the southwest-facing lawn enjoys plenty of sunlight throughout the day. Well-stocked planted beds contain a variety of trees and shrubs, adding year-round colour and interest. A block-paved pathway wraps around the house, offering ease of movement around the garden and creating a seamless flow between different outdoor spaces.

 

Additional features of the property include two single garages, one of which has integral access to the main house, as well as a separate utility room that keeps laundry and storage tucked away. The gated driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles, ensuring both security and convenience. Throughout, the home has been maintained in good order, making it ready for new owners to move in and enjoy.

 

Combining period charm with modern comforts, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly unique home in a picturesque setting.
