Maple House
A superb architecturally designed modern home, with in excess of 3,000 ft2 of accommodation in a privileged and private position in a popular Leicestershire village.
KEY FEATURES
Maple House was constructed in 2019 as part of a small exclusive development of just two high-quality homes, with the subject property occupying a private and privileged position whilst offering convenient access to the centre of this popular village. The house has been meticulously designed with five bedrooms, all individually served by luxuriously appointed ensuite bathrooms. There are some stunning architectural features with full height glazing, vaulted ceilings, a galleried landing and a superb kitchen/dining room with high-quality, built-in appliances and Velux windows with remote rain sensors. The house occupies a plot of 0.27 of an acre, with carefully landscaped entertaining areas, shaped lawns and newly planted trees, which add to the privacy. Outside the house has plenty of parking, with a sweeping gravel drive and block paving that leads to the integral garage. Maple House has some fine environmental credentials including air source heat pumps and access to an EV charge point. This is complimented by underfloor heating to the ground floor and radiators on the second floor. Early inspection is strongly recommended to thoroughly appreciate the high-quality detail in this luxurious property.

The property has a spectacular entrance hall with full floor to ceiling glazing and entrance door, with a galleried landing overlooking the hall. There’s access to a snug with three windows providing plenty of natural light, and built-in cabinetry. The larger sitting room is at the rear of the house with bifold doors leading to the entertaining terrace, and a further door that leads to be spectacular kitchen/dining room with its vaulted ceiling, double-glazed windows and bi fold doors overlooking gardens. The kitchen has been meticulously designed with a range of high-quality Silestone work services, built-in fridge and freezer, Neff ovens and warming drawer, and an induction hob with inverted extractor fan, perfectly placed on the large island unit with breakfast bar. The built-in wine chiller, dishwasher and the Quooker Fusion 3 in 1 boiling water tap compliment the luxurious feel. The rear lobby has a second staircase that leads to one of the bedroom wings and also provides access to the optional bedroom five, which is currently used as a convenient office with a range of built-in office furniture. It’s adjacent to a ground floor shower room and the utility room, with its bank of units and access to the side of the house. There is integral access from here into the double garage with its electric roller door.

Maple House offers the convenience of modern living, particularly for older children or guests with two double bedrooms on the left-hand wing of the building. One with views of the rear and the other double room with delightful views and built-in wardrobes, whilst each have access to beautifully appointed private ensuite shower rooms. On the right-hand wing of the Maple House is a galleried landing with plenty of natural light from the Velux window and access to two further double bedrooms. One at the front of the house with built-in wardrobes and great views of the neighbouring farmland and a beautifully appointed ensuite bathroom. The principal bedroom has views to the side and a well-equipped dressing room area with built-in wardrobes, a window seat and cabinets beneath. The ensuite shower room has attractive tiling and high-quality fittings. It must be noted that each ba throom in the house has been carefully chosen to complement each room and provide great personality, rarely seen in modern homes.
Outside
Maple House shares the initial access with the neighbouring Willow House and then there has a long gravel driveway that sweeps past the frontage where access is also provided to the neighbouring farmers field. Maple House has off street parking with a block paved driveway for at least three vehicles and access to the integral double garage, a shaped lawn with three mature trees, before a post and rail fence denotes the boundary that overlooks the neighbouring farmland. There is a well-stocked flower border at the front of the house and a pathway that leads the side and rear gardens.
The rear gardens have been carefully landscaped by the present owners with plenty of areas to entertain, including some raised composite decking which has enabled a hot tub to be lowered into a convenient position. There’s a large patio and pathway at the rear elevation that leads to the rest of the gardens, which are mainly laid to lawn and have a variety of young maturing trees that provide a private and privileged outlook.
LOCATION
Swinford is a charming village in Leicestershire, located within the Harborough district near the county’s southwestern border. The village has a long history, with its origins tracing back to the medieval period. It was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, highlighting its longstanding presence in the region. Historically, Swinford was primarily an agricultural community, and this heritage is still evident in its landscape.
The village features several historic buildings, including traditional stone cottages, St. Thomas’ Church, and other listed structures that add to its quaint and picturesque character. St. Thomas’ Church, one of the village’s main landmarks, dates back to the 12th century and stands as a testament to Swinford’s rich history.
Swinford is conveniently located near major roads, including the M1 and M6 motorways, making it accessible to larger towns and cities like Rugby and Lutterworth, which provide additional amenities. Despite its proximity to these urban centres, Swinford has retained a closeknit, community-oriented atmosphere. The village offers a local pub called The Chequers, a primary school, and a village hall that serves as a hub for community events and gatherings.
Surrounded by rolling farmland and scenic countryside, Swinford offers a peaceful and rural lifestyle, with numerous walking routes and outdoor spaces for residents and visitors to enjoy.
Overall, Swinford combines historical charm with a tranquil rural environment, making it a quintessential English village with a strong sense of community and a connection to its past.
