Ref - DA1155

Introduction

If you’ve been searching for a character property with generous living space, a utility room and a garden that genuinely stands out from the crowd, Ivanhoe House could be exactly what you’ve been waiting for.

Positioned within easy reach of Coalville town centre, this attractive Victorian villa offers far more than first impressions might suggest. Combining period charm with practical modern living, the property provides three bedrooms, spacious reception rooms and, most notably, a garden that is rarely found at this price point.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer looking for room to grow, a young family wanting outside space, or simply someone who appreciates the character of older homes, this is a property that deserves your attention.

Entrance Porch

The original tiled flooring immediately provides a nod to the property’s Victorian heritage.

Combined with the tiled walls and separate internal entrance door, the porch creates a welcoming first impression whilst offering a practical space for muddy shoes, coats and umbrellas before entering the main home.

Entrance Hall

The hallway provides a natural introduction to the accommodation beyond.

With stairs rising to the first floor, useful understairs storage and access to the principal ground floor rooms, it’s a space that balances practicality with the character expected from a home of this era.

Lounge - 3.66m x 3.71m (12'0"+Bay x 12'2")

The front-facing lounge is full of warmth and personality.

The bay window not only adds character to the room but also allows natural light to flood the space throughout the day. The electric fireplace creates an attractive focal point, making this the perfect place to relax with family or unwind after a busy day.

The room flows openly into the dining area, creating a layout that feels both sociable and surprisingly spacious.

Dining Room - 3.61m x 3.48m (11'10" x 11'5")

Open-plan yet retaining its own identity, the dining area provides an excellent space for everyday family meals and entertaining alike.

The rear window overlooks the garden and helps draw the eye outside, whilst the generous proportions mean there is ample room for hosting family gatherings, celebrations and those occasions where everyone naturally ends up around the dining table.

Together, the lounge and dining room create a wonderful living space that feels connected whilst still offering clearly defined areas.

Kitchen - 3.58m x 2.69m (11'9" x 8'10")

The kitchen has been designed with practicality at its heart.

Fitted with a range of wall and base units, the space also benefits from an electric oven, induction hob, cooker hood, one bowl sink drainer, plumbing for a dishwasher and space for a fridge freezer. A side-facing double glazed window brings natural light into the room, whilst the glazed door provides direct access to the garden.

Whether you’re preparing a quick breakfast before work or hosting friends for a summer barbecue, the layout works brilliantly for everyday life.

Utility Room - 2.74m x 1.63m (9'0" x 5'4")

A separate utility room is a feature that many buyers actively search for and it’s easy to understand why.

Additional wall and base units provide further storage, whilst plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer help keep laundry and household appliances away from the main kitchen. It’s a practical addition that makes a noticeable difference to daily living.

Cloakroom

Located off the utility room, the cloakroom is fitted with a WC and benefits from a side-facing double glazed window.

Particularly useful when entertaining guests or spending time in the garden during the warmer months, it’s another practical feature that adds convenience to everyday life.

Landing

The landing provides access to all three bedrooms and the family bathroom.

Laminate flooring continues the low-maintenance theme found throughout the property, whilst loft access provides further storage opportunities.

Bedroom - 3.66m x 3.71m (12'0"Max x 12'2"Max)

Positioned to the front of the property, Bedroom One is a comfortable double bedroom with a large double glazed window allowing natural light to flood the room.

The proportions provide plenty of space for a full range of bedroom furniture, creating a room that feels both practical and relaxing at the end of the day.

Bedroom - 3.63m x 3.48m (11'11" x 11'5")

Overlooking the rear garden, Bedroom Two is another generous double bedroom.

The rear-facing window creates a peaceful outlook across the garden, whilst the laminate flooring and radiator ensure the room is ready to move straight into. It’s a room that would work equally well as a principal bedroom, guest room or children’s bedroom.

Bedroom - 2.59m x 1.45m (8'6" x 4'9")

Bedroom Three is a versatile space that can adapt as life changes.

With a front-facing double glazed window, radiator and laminate flooring, it could serve as a child’s bedroom, nursery, dressing room or home office depending on your individual requirements.

Bathroom - 3.58m x 2.72m (11'9" x 8'11")

Far larger than many buyers would expect, the family bathroom is one of the property’s hidden gems.

Two rear-facing portrait-style double glazed windows allow natural light to flood the room, whilst the large storage cupboard provides valuable space for towels, linen and household essentials. The suite comprises a substantial double shower, WC and wash hand basin, all complemented by tiled walls and flooring.

For busy households, it’s a room that combines practicality with comfort exceptionally well.

Garden

The garden is undoubtedly the feature that sets Ivanhoe House apart.

For a property in this price bracket, the amount of outdoor space on offer is genuinely impressive. The substantial lawn stretches away from the house and creates endless possibilities for families, keen gardeners, pet owners or those who simply enjoy spending time outdoors.

There is ample room for children to play, space to entertain family and friends, and plenty of scope for future landscaping projects should a buyer wish to put their own stamp on things. A patio area provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, whilst outside lighting, power points and a tap add further practicality.

Quite simply, gardens of this size are becoming increasingly difficult to find without spending considerably more money.

Outbuildings & Future Potential

To the rear are two original brick-built coal houses which are currently used for storage.

Beyond their practical use, they also create exciting possibilities for the future. Subject to any necessary permissions, buyers may see potential to incorporate these structures into a larger extension project, following the example of other homes that have evolved over time.

For buyers wanting a home they can grow into rather than grow out of, that potential could prove extremely appealing.

The Front

To the front of the property, a low-maintenance enclosed courtyard is framed by traditional walls and gated access leading up to the front door, creating an attractive approach and further enhancing the property’s character and kerb appeal.
