Church Leys, Rearsby, LE7

Nestled within a picturesque setting, Dove House is a distinguished home which forms part of a prestigious conversion that seamlessly blends traditional character with modern luxury.

Church Leys Development is a unique blend of ten deluxe conversions and eight new homes set within the historic grounds of a Victorian estate. Originally built in 1883 for prominent Leicester families, the property later became the home of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace in 1945.

Wilson Enterprises founder David Wilson CBE, who has been recognised for quality building over many decades has overseen every detail at Church Leys where the meticulously designed homes exceed industry standards. High-quality craftsmanship with premium materials and brands which include Sherwin Hall Kitchens and Albert Henry wardrobes define these homes, which come with a 10-year new homes warranty and dedicated aftercare. The development seamlessly combines original Victorian features with modern design, preserving key historical elements.

Rearsby, a village with heritage and a community spirit is surrounded by rolling countryside, yet well-connected via the A607 and A46. Leicester is just nine miles away, Ratcliffe College approx. three miles and Melton Mowbray only eight miles. Church Leys offers the perfect blend of rural charm and modern convenience.

From the moment you approach via the gravel and brick-paved driveway, flanked by mature shrubs and a sweeping lawn, the property’s charm is unmistakable. The oak-beamed double garage stands opposite, a testament to the craftsmanship that pervades every inch of this residence.

Step inside, and you're welcomed by a light-filled, double-height hallway with a warm wood floor and elegant oak doors, setting the tone for the rest of the home. To your left, the practical downstairs cloakroom and the versatile study, which could easily serve as a fifth bedroom, cater to the needs of modern family life.

At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan living space. The kitchen, a bespoke design and fit, features handcrafted cabinetry, quartz worktops, and a central island that offers ample storage and workspace. Integrated Miele appliances, including a double oven and a 5-ring gas hob, make cooking a pleasure, while the wine cooler is ready for those special evenings. Beyond the kitchen, the expansive living and dining area, with its triple-aspect design, is bathed in natural light, courtesy of bi-fold doors that open seamlessly onto the garden, creating a perfect space for entertaining.

Adjacent to the main living area, the guest bedroom suite offers privacy and comfort, complete with fitted wardrobes, garden access, and a stylish en-suite with a double-sized shower.

Ascending the oak staircase, you reach a stunning galleried landing, illuminated by skylights and offering a cosy seating area with views over the front garden. The principal bedroom is a sanctuary of peace, featuring a Juliet balcony, fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious en-suite with both a bath and a fully enclosed shower unit.
