Hortons are delighted to present Douglas Villa at Riverside Grange, a substantial four bedroom link-detached dormer bungalow, forming part of an exclusive development of just six individually designed homes beside the River Eye, on the periphery of Melton Mowbray.

Riverside Grange, by Cooper Lennard Bartlett, sits in a well landscaped setting, with Douglas Villa occupying a private position towards the rear of the development, backing directly onto open countryside beyond.

Step through the front door and you are greeted by a impressive entrance hall with an oak balustraded staircase rising to the first floor and useful under stairs storage. To one side sits a generous room of 3.13m x 3.84m, designed to work equally well as a study or a fourth ground floor bedroom, and to the other a well proportioned formal living room of 4.89m x 3.84m with French doors opening onto the garden.

The heart of the home is the kitchen, family and dining space, which wraps around the rear of the house and opens to the garden through bi-fold doors and a further set of French doors. The kitchen has been hand built by independent makers Greystone Interiors and individually designed for the development, with shaker style cabinetry, quartz worktops and up-stands, integrated Samsung oven, hob and extractor, CATA wine cooler, a central island and generous storage throughout. It flows into a family area of 4.42m x 5.83m and a separate dining room with garden doors, giving the flexibility to keep everyday living and formal entertaining slightly apart. A separate utility room sits off the kitchen and a ground floor shower room off the hallway with a flush shower threshold, keeping the everyday mess of family life out of sight.

Upstairs, three further bedrooms are arranged off a bright landing. The principal bedroom measures 5.30m x 2.96m complete with a well appointed en-suite. Bedroom two is a generous double at 5.30m x 3.85m, while bedroom three measures 4.20m x 3.31m. A family bathroom and further fitted storage complete the first floor.

Outside, the rear garden is laid with top soil, ready to be landscaped to the buyer's taste and enclosed by post and rail and close boarded fencing, with an outlook across the water and meadow that is hard to find on a new development. To the front there is a lawned garden, block paved driveway and car port, with a dedicated EV charging point.

Being brand new, the home is exceptionally efficient. Heating and hot water are provided by an air source heat pump, with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and individually controlled radiators to the first floor. High levels of insulation and airtightness, along with energy efficient double glazing, are designed to keep running costs down.

In summary, Douglas Villa is one of the most flexible homes at Riverside Grange: three first floor bedrooms plus a ground floor room that works as a study or fourth bedroom, three distinct living spaces and a direct outlook over water and open countryside, all finished to a standard well above the volume house builder norm.
