The house sits on an exceptional south facing plot extending to approximately 0.3 acres. The house was originally constructed in the 1930's as the home of one of Leicester's most renowned solicitors and the current owners are only the second family to live there. Although the house has been constantly upgraded and improved over the years, some fine period features have been preserved including the original servant's bell panel, which is still in working order.

The accommodation briefly comprises on the ground floor, a sitting room, dining room and breakfast room all of which overlook the garden.
