General Description
Smiths Property Experts are delighted to offer to the market The Poplars, a magnificent Edwardian residence, architecturally designed and approaching 2,700 square feet, which has been sympathetically upgraded and extended to provide a superb family home.
The property is set within south-westerly facing gardens of approximately 0.2 acres and located within walking distance of Loughborough town centre. The home retains many original features, including stained glass windows and ornate plasterwork, while incorporating modern enhancements. The accommodation includes three reception rooms, a stunning open-plan kitchen, which provides seamless indoor-outdoor living, five double bedrooms, as well as two recently updated bathrooms.
A rarity to the market, this home offers a unique blend of character, convenience and spacious modern living and demands an internal inspection to truly appreciate what is on offer.
The Property
This quite wonderful home is offered for sale in immaculate decorative order, having been lovingly maintained and improved by the current owners, including a replacement boiler, upgraded bathrooms, and some replaced and refurbished windows. The accommodation is entered through a storm porch and into the reception hall through the original stained glass front door. The hallway has replaced oak block flooring, a glorious staircase, a cloakroom cupboard, and a door to the cellar.
There are three reception rooms, including a bay-fronted formal dining room and a sitting room with a log-burning stove, as well as a picture bay that overlooks the gardens and a retractable projector screen. There is a family room with a continuation of the oak block flooring and a cast iron log burner, with steps leading to the kitchen. The kitchen is without doubt the new hub of the home, offering a light and spacious area accompanied by an open-plan living space with fully glazed sliding doors that open onto the rear garden from two sides. The kitchen features a range of base and wall units with quartz work surfaces, a central island incorporating the hob with a low-level extractor, a twin oven, and integrated appliances. Skylights and inset spotlights enhance the brightness of the room. The boot room/utility provides additional storage, plumbing for washing facilities, and houses the boiler, with the ground-floor WC leading off.
The first-floor landing has a built-in storage cupboard. There are three first-floor double bedrooms. The main bedroom has a recently replaced en-suite shower room, and the main bathroom has a contemporary four-piece suite including a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. On the second floor, there are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms.
