The Midlands are essentially central to everything in England: airports, motorways and train stations are easily accessible. For example, the East Midlands airport is only 20 miles away, London is approximately 107 miles away and it is possible to visit the seaside for a day trip! The M1, M69 and M6 maximise the potential for travel by road from this central location. The villages of Thurmaston, Syston, Wanlip and Thurcaston are close by. Situated three miles north of Leicester city centre, Birstall is in the civil parish of Charnwood and due to its proximity to the city, it is considered part of the wider urban area. Following the route of the A6, the centre of the village is off Sibson Road. On the north of the village, the A6 meets the A46 Leicester Western bypass, which continues to Loughborough along the Soar valley. The Grand Union Canal is on the eastern edge of the area, adjacent to Watermead Country Park, which is a series of lakes in the bottom of the Soar valley. The park is a popular destination and has meadow and reed nature reserves, play trails with landmarks, and provides opportunities for walkers and cyclists to link up to the city paths or to wider open countryside along the valley. It is within walking distance from the centre of Birstall village but has large parking facilities too. Leicester City and parish councils have been keen to conserve and reintroduce green belt natural areas for the public to enjoy and there are others within the county. To discover those and find information relating to the services within the area parishesbirstall would be worth checking out.The original small village of Birstall was identified as 'Burstalle' in the 1086 Domesday Book. The name means 'settlement built on the site of a fortification'. At that time the sixteen acres of meadow land and a mill, were owned by Hugh de Grandmesnil and gradually grew in size, occupied by various settlers until the arrival of the Great Central Railway in 1899, when the area really developed. It continues to be a popular region with the latest addition to the area being Hallam Fields, a development on land to the west of the A6. Today, Birstall appeals to the community through a wide selection of sport, education and leisure amenities. There are an array of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and parks, with the additional benefits of reaching the city of Leicester by public or private transport. Close by on the northern edge of the village is the Park and Ride bus park. The village is well served by several bus companies including Kinch, Centre bus, Skylink and Arriva Midlands.Birstall has its own library, Post Office LE4 4JE and dental and medical practices such as Greengate Medical Centre and Birstall Medical Centre. There are three churches including the parish church which has been on the site since Saxon times. St James the Great was restored in 1869 and enlarged in 1961. The church hall is the building once used as the village school. There are a number of schools in the village; Riverside Primary, Hallam Fields Primary, Highcliffe Primary and Cedars Academy. The Office for Standards in Education - OFSTED is best researched to provide a comprehensive review of currently rated standards of practice.Additional information:EPC - CLocal Authority - Charnwood Borough CouncilCouncil Tax Banding - FBroadband Speed - 1130Mb For more details and to contact: https://realtyww.info/houses_leicester-d196270/for-sale_i70165372

Approached via a private, tree-lined drive which passes through the parkland, the house stands in a secluded rural position surrounded by beautiful mature trees.The main house is a striking villa-style property constructed originally for the Hind family, owners of the Swithland slate quarry. It has been in the vendors' family since 1910, with the main house used as a residential care home up to 2008. It is now in need of significant renovation and improvement, but retains many fine period details and features, whilst providing for a variety of future uses, subject to the necessary planning permission.SituationWhetstone Pastures House lies just south of Whetstone, about 7 miles to the south of Leicester City Centre, and within easy reach of the excellent motorway network in the Midlands linking to Rugby, Northampton, Coventry, Nottingham, Derby and Birmingham.Communication links are excellent, Junction 21 of the M1 lies a few miles north, at Leicester, which also provides mainline rail connections to London St Pancras International in a little over an hour. Birmingham and East Midlands Airports are approximately 40 and 33 miles from the property respectively.AccommodationWhetstone Pastures House provides accommodation extending to about 11,372 square feet gross internal area over three floors (with substantial cellars on top of that area), with largely rendered elevations under hipped Swithland slate roofs and stucco chimney stacks. Although the house requires a full programme of renovation, it could be restored to its former glory and offers many fine original features including cornices, sash windows, fireplaces and wooden panelling.The house is entered through a central Doric portico, with slate steps and pedestals which rise to half-glazed double front doors. There is a central hall, which is flanked by four reception rooms, and offers a connecting passage to the former ballroom, with an impressive bay window overlooking the front drive. The rear wing incorporates the former kitchens and domestic offices, with access to the stable courtyard to the east.An early 19th century staircase with double stick balusters and a ramped, scrolled hardwood hand rail rises to the first floor.
