"Meadowcourt of Melton Mowbray offers a rare opportunity to acquire one of the finest early 20th century period residences in Melton Mowbray. Constructed in 1914 of local brick under a clay rosemary tile roof, the property sits at the top of Dalby Hill and would have been nestled within 150 acres of surrounding grounds.
Approached by a gated tree lined driveway, the property is discreetly hidden amongst mature trees and has been painstakingly renovated by the current owners and offers all of the charm of a fine period property retaining many character features to include stained glass and leaded windows, sash windows, high coved ceilings, open fireplaces and wood burning stoves, parquet flooring and original doors, whilst having the added benefit of modern fixtures to the kitchen and bathrooms.
The superb living kitchen has been renovated in a traditional shaker style with quartz worktops, a range oven and integrated appliances. The windows have been renovated to make them more energy efficient without sacrificing the character and integrity of the property and the roof has been partially replaced.
Meadowcourt also has a separate annexe which would be ideal for a dependant relative or teenager, alternatively it could be used as a home office or could be rented out privately.
