Yew Tree Farm is a substantial five bedroom home in rural Leicestershire standing in mature grounds of around 4.66 acres in total. Holwell is a hidden gem nestled within rolling countryside on the edge of the Vale of Belvoir. Equidistant to both Leicester and Nottingham this rare home which is packed full of period charm does not have the restriction of a listed status. Dating back to the early 18th century this former farmhouse is built of local Ironstone and hand thrown mellow bricks to the front elevation. The property enjoys an extremely private elevated position and has been the subject of an extensive programme of restoration and redevelopment over recent years. Just over 3700 sq ft of beautifully appointed accommodation and still with further development potential make this a perfect opportunity for a growing family. On the ground floor are four large reception rooms one of which is a superb 20’6” x 13’7” garden room open plan living kitchen with log burner utility and boot room. On the first floor are five double bedrooms and three luxurious bathrooms. Outside a sweeping driveway leads to a detached double garage and a second entrance further along Main Street provides an alternative approach if desired. Priced realistically early viewing is strongly recommended.
