detached house 
7 bedrooms Property description
A Landmark Residence of Distinction with 1300 SqFt (approx) Detached Three-Bedroom Annexe | 7 Bedrooms | 2 Receptions | 5180 sq ft (approx.) | Gated In & Out Drive | Elevated Plot with Far-Reaching Views | Outstanding Road & Rail Links
Set majestically on an elevated plot along the prestigious Uppingham Road in the charming village of Houghton on the Hill, Grosvenor House is a commanding seven-bedroom residence offering refined country living with luxurious proportions, outstanding flexibility, and the rare benefit of a fully independent three-bedroom annexe.
Approached via a sweeping, gated in-and-out tarmac driveway, framed by manicured lawns, the property enjoys an immediate sense of arrival. A recessed storm porch welcomes you into a generous entrance hallway—a grand central artery of the home—with a guest cloakroom and staircase rising gracefully to the upper floors.
To the front, the elegant bay-fronted reception room is bathed in natural light and offers an ideal setting for formal entertaining. A private study, perfect for remote working or a library retreat, lies adjacent. Flowing from the hallway, the formal dining room looks out to the rear garden—ideal for intimate dinners and celebratory feasts alike.
At the heart of the home is a warm and inviting family lounge, complete with an exposed brick fireplace, soft character lighting, and French doors spilling out to the sun-drenched patio beyond. The bespoke kitchen is generous in size and thoughtfully arranged with wall and base cabinetry, space for a breakfast table, and a view to the side elevation. A connecting utility and boot room leads directly to the garden—practical and stylish in equal measure.
First Floor: Elevated Elegance
Ascend to the first-floor galleried landing, where you’ll find the principal bedroom suite, a sanctuary of serenity, with fitted wardrobes and a beautifully appointed en suite featuring a corner shower, wash basin, WC, and bidet. A large picture window captures verdant views over open countryside—a daily reminder of the home's privileged position.
Three further double bedrooms, all well-sized and individually styled, share this floor alongside a family bathroom complete with a corner bath, WC, bidet, and wash basin. Two dressing rooms provide ample wardrobe space—one of which retains its original plumbing and can easily be reinstated as a bathroom.
Second Floor: Charming & Versatile
The top floor offers three further bedrooms, each enjoying generous proportions and elevated vistas. A smartly fitted shower room with WC and wash basin completes this level—making it ideal for teenagers, guests, or even live-in staff.
The 1300 SqFt (approx) Annexe: A Hidden Gem
Set privately at the rear of the landscaped garden is a detached, three-bedroom annexe, ideal for multi-generational living or lucrative rental income. Accessed via a charming garden pathway, French doors open into a spacious open-plan kitchen/living room with wall and base units, a gas hob, oven, and sink.
A hallway leads to three bedrooms, a study, and a full bathroom with bath, WC, bidet, and wash basin. This space provides independent, self-contained accommodation without compromise on comfort or style.
External Features
The south-facing rear garden is an idyllic haven with a paved patio area for al fresco dining, a manicured lawn, and a dedicated vegetable patch for keen gardeners. The double garage, tucked under a covered carport, boasts a split-level layout with stairs—ideal for storage or a potential studio space.
Location & Connectivity
Grosvenor House is perfectly placed on the edge of Houghton on the Hill—one of East Leicestershire’s most sought-after villages. The A47 offers direct links to Leicester city centre and the picturesque market town of Uppingham. For commuters, Leicester Railway Station offers regular services to London St Pancras in just over an hour, while excellent road connections link seamlessly with the A6, M1, and M69.
Outstanding independent schools such as Leicester Grammar, Oakham, and Uppingham are all within easy reach, making this home a superb option for growing families seeking space, prestige, and convenience.
