Walnut Leys was Bloor Homes' first development, built as a small development for Executives and their families in the growing south Leicestershire economy.

This particular property was built circa 1969, having only one owner since new and positioned on a substantial plot close to the heart of this regarded south Leicestershire village. It is a spacious detached family home thought suitable for extension, (subject to the necessary planning consents).

Location - Walnut Leys has always enjoyed a strong family oriented feel, located in the historic centre of the village of Cosby, approximately five miles south of the city centre. The village itself benefits from a public house, cafes, restaurants, a golf course, post office and general store catering for most day to day needs. There are two Nursery schools and a Primary School. In neighbouring Broughton Astley Thomas Estley High School offers education for the 11 - 14 age group and Countesthorpe Community College in Countesthorpe catering for the 14 - 19 age group. The private Leicester Grammar School is approximately within a twenty minute drive.

The position is convenient for excellent road communications via the A426 Lutterworth Road and Junction 21 of the M1/M69 motorway networks plus rail access to London St Pancras, or from Rugby to Euston in little over an hour. International travel is available from the nearby East Midlands and Birmingham Airports, making this an excellent location for modern day 'remote work' practices.

Accommodation - The property is entered via a porch housing a cloakroom with a white two piece suite. The entrance hall houses the stairs to the first floor with a useful understairs storage cupboard beneath. The sitting room has a window to the front elevation, an exposed Inglenook brick fireplace with an open fire and a double glazed sliding door to the rear. The dining room has a uPVC double glazed door and windows to the rear elevation. The study has a window to the front elevation. The breakfast kitchen has a good range of beech effect eye and base level units and drawers, a stainless steel sink, a stainless steel double oven with four-ring halogen hob and stainless steel canopy extractor unit above, plumbing for a dishwasher and a window to the rear elevation. A utility room with a window and door to the rear elevation provides a stainless steel sink, plumbing for automatic washing machine, space for a condenser dryer and access to the garage.

The first floor landing with a window to the front elevation houses a useful storage cupboard. The master bedroom has built-in wardrobes with cupboards over and a window to the rear elevation. Bedroom two has built-in wardrobes with cupboards over and a window to the front. Bedroom three has built-in wardrobes with cupboards over and a window to the side. Bedroom four has built-in wardrobes with cupboards over and a window to the rear. The family bathroom houses the airing cupboard and provides a five piece suite comprising a low flush WC, bidet, pedestal wash hand basin, a panelled bath and a shower cubicle, window to the rear elevation.

Outside - To the front of the property are large lawned gardens and a sweeping tarmac driveway providing car standing and leading to a double garage with an inspection pit. To the rear of the property are good-sized, lawned gardens with mature trees and shrubs.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on May 27, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 27, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
