In a quiet and private spot overlooking open Rutland countryside where sheep peacefully graze, in the very attractive little village of Glaston, is a delightful yellow stone house. One of three built about twenty years ago that form this cul-de-sac, number 3 occupies the end position and has been very recently upgraded by the current owners presenting it in immaculate order with an abundance of new, top of the range fixtures and fittings. With twelve bi-angled solar panels on its slate roofs to the rear, contributing greatly to its energy efficiency, the beautifully constructed stone building is in a traditional style with gable ends featuring arrow slit windows into the roof space. Inside, the house is light and airy enhanced by the neutral palette of the décor which has just been completely redone, and the flow between rooms is excellent. The refurbished oak-framed garden room with overhead beams links with the stunning kitchen and reception room and is an exceptional asset and a favourite space. “We have upgraded so much in the house: new bathrooms, new bespoke kitchen with Silestone worktops, high end appliances, a Quooker hot tap and a water softener, as well as fitting a contemporary Scandinavian wood-burner in the oak-framed garden room.”
“Everything in the house is of the very best quality using top class brands sourced from local suppliers.â€? A state of the art, gas log-effect fire with surround has also been installed in the sitting room. Modern fitted cupboards and wardrobes ensure there is no lack of storage space throughout the house. The original double garage pair of swing-out doors have been replaced with HĂśrmann Sectional Electric doors with rubber seals at the base, and the floors are now covered in thick resin by Dura for a super slick finish. The property has also been completely rewired with the addition of security lights and cameras and an array of garden
lights that create a lovely ambience at night, the alarm system has been upgraded. Plumbing has included fitting a new boiler and water tank and installing underfloor heating in two of the three bathrooms. Many radiators have been concealed with attractive covers, and internal blinds are electric making life easy. All five external doors have been renewed, and garden fencing is also new with timber lapboard and trellis at the back and similar in a deep blue metal to the side with matching gate, which is the perfect foil to the green foliage and colourful blooms growing on and beneath it.
The sunny, sheltered garden has been transformed from a rather bland plot into a stylish haven with stone paved areas and a timber gazebo providing plenty of space for sitting in the sun or shade. Beds and borders surround a central lawn where three young trees stand in a row, and are well stocked with perennials, whilst raised beds behind the garage are perfect for growing your own veg. A log store is close to the garden room, and a timber shed is useful for garden storage in a far corner. An unusual stone water feature adds to the atmosphere, and superb views across the open pastures behind the garden complete the idyllic scene. Back in the house and upstairs, where you find all five bedrooms and a family bathroom, the very generous master bedroom faces both south and west at the back with particularly good views over the garden and countryside. Its spacious modern en-suite has a large shower, as has the second bedroom. The family bathroom has a fitted bath with a shower over it. Three bedrooms are doubles, and the other two are singles.
