This rare, Victorian home with contemporary twist and South Facing Garden occupies a commanding position, close to the Rothley/Cropston border. Originally built in 1900, The Station House encapsulates bygone times and offers a glimpse into life spent on our beloved, steam railways.

Over recent years, this four-bedroom home has recently been the subject of an extensive, back to brick refurbishment and development. Retaining period charm with a contemporary twist the property has a new roof, plumbing, electrics, hardwood double glazing and underfloor heating. The hallway, complete with original floor tiles and staircase has changed very little and a large, open plan living kitchen with high vaulted ceiling, log burner and bi fold doors is a particular feature. In addition, there is a separate sitting room with log burner, fully equipped utility room and cloaks/WC. On the first and second floors are four double bedrooms and family bathroom. The main bedroom is particularly impressive with South Facing, Juliet balcony, high vaulted ceiling, dressing room and stylishly fitted en suite. Outside, there is private parking for three vehicles, double garage and secure storage for motorhome/camper. The property enjoys a high degree of privacy and landscaped wrap around the property.

It is understood this property is one of only two, such surviving properties standing front-line to this unique and historic national treasure. Considering the properties rarity, early viewing is strongly recommended.
