Holyhill House is a striking detached family home, thoughtfully extended, beautifully presented and enjoying a great location in the hamlet of Tonge overlooking open countryside. Tonge is a charming hamlet nestled just outside the historic town of Melbourne offering a peaceful countryside lifestyle with proximity to Melbourne's extensive amenities which include shops, cafes, unique local boutiques and Melbourne's thriving dining scene. Tonge is also close to several renowned parks and green spaces, the award-winning Melbourne Hall gardens offer beautiful walks through manicured grounds while Calke Abbey and Foremark Reservoir provide scenic trails, picnic areas and opportunities for outdoor adventure just a short drive away. The property is ideally located for commuters with easy access to main road networks like the A42 and A50, linking you to nearby Derby, Leicester and Nottingham. East Midlands airport is a short drive away providing further connectivity for both work and leisure travel.

This distinctive property sits back from the lane opposite open fields, a five-bar gate leads you onto a large stone chipped driveway with detached garage, and a stepped approach leads you to the entrance door. Beyond is a fabulous entrance hallway to this lovely home which has oak flooring underfoot and an oak turning staircase leading up to a mezzanine galleried landing above.

Directly ahead of you is a wonderful dining room which has a part vaulted ceiling with inset skylight and bifolding glazed doors flood the room with natural sun light and fold back to allow the inside in, perfect for al fresco dining. The galleried landing mezzanine overlooks from above and arranged around is a wealth of accommodation.

The property has a very well proportioned living room which too has oak flooring underfoot and two front facing windows enjoying views over the countryside to the fore. The focal point of the room is a feature corner log burning stove keeping you warm and cosy on these autumn and winter evenings. Leading off the living room is a very useful home office which overlooks the rear garden. The office also comes with the benefit of a built in oak desk and full height bookcase with cupboards and drawers.

Next is the family room/bedroom four, this ground floor multi-purpose room has the benefit of French doors that lead you out onto the rear garden and makes an ideal reception room or fourth bedroom. Across from this room, through the dining hallway you will find a well appointed guest cloakroom which has WC and a feature mosaic tiled countertop with returns and shaped wash hand bowl with pillar mixer tap above. Bedroom two also comes off the hallway and this well proportioned double room has a dressing area, two front facing windows and the benefit of its own private en suite shower room comprising corner quadrant shower, vanity wash hand basin with mirror above and WC.

In a house full of highlights, we leave the best to last and that is the gorgeous social, open plan living, family breakfast kitchen. It has an amazing, vaulted ceiling with exposed roof trusses and four inset skylights, shaker style base and wall mounted cabinets wrap around two sides of the room with marble countertops, there is a deep Belfast style sink with pillar mixer tap, integral hob with extractor hood above, oven and microwave alongside a feature cream three oven aga range. There is attractive ceramic tiled flooring with underfloor heating, space for a breakfast table, space for family sitting area and multiple French doors flood this room with natural sunlight and give direct out onto the landscaped garden. This really is the heart of the home, perfect for family living and entertaining. Lastly, leading off the kitchen is a useful utility room with a matching array of cabinetry to the kitchen.

Take the staircase to the first floor and you find yourself standing on a Mistral galleried landing with a lovely view down to the dining room. Immediately to your left is the third bedroom to the property which has bespoke fitted wardrobes, lovely front aspect over the countryside and the benefit of its own private en suite shower room comprising oversized shower cubicle with thermostatic range shower, low level WC and fitted vanity unit with wash hand basin. Bedroom one lies on the opposite side of the landing, and this is a large L shaped master bedroom suite which is flooded with natural light, it has the benefit of French doors leading to its own private balcony which again has lovely views over the garden and fields beyond.

Steps lead up past the koi pond to the large lawned area which has a second patio area adjacent to the fields.
