Uppingham

Located in the heart of Uppingham, Chesterton is an elegant period home that has been extensively extended and modernised to create a truly impressive residence. The current owners have carefully reconfigured the layout, introducing contemporary updates while maintaining the home’s original charm. With six bedrooms, generous living spaces, and a newly built garage with an office above, this exceptional property offers flexible accommodation designed for modern family life.

Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed into a spacious reception hallway, where the tone is immediately set by high ceilings and period features. The layout has been realigned to enhance the sense of space and flow. To the left, a sitting room benefits from an original fireplace and a large bay window that floods the space with natural light.

To the rear of the property, the owners have undertaken a substantial extension, creating a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining room. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, this beautifully finished space features a high-quality kitchen, complete with a generous central island, sleek cabinetry, and ample work surfaces. Large glass doors at the back flood the space with more natural light and open onto the landscaped garden, allowing for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A laundry room, conveniently positioned off the kitchen, provides additional storage and workspace, keeping the main living area clutter-free.

One of the home’s most notable features is the modern glass tube lift, a stylish and practical addition that connects the ground and first floors, ensuring accessibility without compromising the home’s design.

The first floor is well laid out, offering three spacious bedrooms. The principal bedroom, positioned at the rear, benefits from a luxurious updated en suite with contemporary fittings. Two further, generously proportioned bedrooms, feature period details and large windows, making them bright and welcoming spaces. The family bathroom has been reconfigured, now featuring a dedicated shower room alongside the newly created lift access, optimising functionality while maintaining the home’s character.

The upper floor provides additional accommodation, with three further double bedrooms, each well-sized and full of character. A newly created storage room ensures practical solutions for family living, offering valuable space for organisation. A well-appointed bathroom serves the second floor, making this level ideal for additional family members or guests.

The property’s exterior has been just as thoughtfully improved as the interior. The walled garden has been professionally landscaped, creating a beautiful yet low-maintenance outdoor space. A stone-paved terrace offers the perfect setting for outdoor dining and relaxation, while the lawned area provides a peaceful retreat.

At the rear of the garden, the newly constructed garage is a fantastic addition, offering secure parking and extra storage. Above it, a dedicated office space provides a quiet and private environment, ideal for remote working or creative pursuits.
