A spectacular, new six bedroomed, detached house built by Springbourne Homes in Sheepy Parva, Leicestershire, has been sold for £1.3m.

The elegant property sits on a 1.5 acre plot and boasts a tennis court and its own fishing lodge complete with fishing rights.

The lavish accommodation covers more than 5,000 sq ft and includes three reception rooms as well as a stunning open plan kitchen and dining area on the ground floor.

Upstairs there is a Master bedroom complete with en suite bathroom and 5 further bedrooms, 4 with en suites.

Springbourne’s client liaison manager Gary Harker said: “This is the largest single house that we have built and perfectly represents what we stand for as a company – delivering top quality, superbly styled homes in enviable locations.

“We expected a lot of interest when it went onto the market and we weren’t disappointed. We’re delighted to have provided such a bespoke home for our clients.”

Springbourne are now working in nearby Sheepy Magna on completing a development of 24 dwellings. The site at Trout Ponds is proving very popular, with 80% of the site already sold.

Future sites have already been acquired in Melton Mowbray and Wellsborough, near Market Bosworth.
