Mellbreak

About this property

Mellbreak is a delightful house resting in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, offering a welcoming base for families and friends. With views across the local golf club and a generous garden for outdoor relaxation, this property is ideal for families and friends seeking a peaceful escape with plenty of space to unwind. As you arrive, the property makes a striking first impression. The sweeping driveway leads to a beautiful 1920s home, its elegant façade standing proudly behind a neat patio that frames the front door. Step inside, and the hallway greets you with rustic wooden flooring and a bright, airy feel. Picture rails and coving add character, while elegant furnishings hint at the home’s heritage and sunlight streams through the bay windows, framing the garden.

The kitchen is a true centrepiece, where bespoke oak-fronted units meet cool granite worktops in a space designed for both creativity and conversation. A generous island with stools offers a perch for morning coffee, while tiled flooring underlines its practical elegance. Nearby, a larger dining table sits close to patio doors, ready for gatherings that spill into the garden when the weather calls. In this property you will find five double bedrooms. The master bedroom exudes timeless appeal, its ornamental fireplace adding a touch of romance to the space. Another bedroom offers a walk-in wardrobe and sweeping views over the generous lawn and, beyond its leafy boundary of shrubs, the golf course that lends this home its enviable setting.

Each room carries the hallmarks of period style, from picture rails to cast iron radiators, blending heritage with comfort. Step outside to the rear garden and you’ll find a wide expanse of lawn edged with mature shrubs, a haven for alfresco dining or quiet reflection. Beyond the garden, the golf course stretches out, a private backdrop that enhances the sense of space and exclusivity. When it’s time to explore, the surrounding area offers experiences that linger long in memory. Spend a day at Twycross Zoo, where you can wander through lush habitats, watch playful primates swing overhead, and marvel at the grace of big cats in their expansive enclosures.

For a taste of history, head to Calke Abbey, a stately home steeped in stories, where faded grandeur meets secret gardens and woodland walks that feel like stepping back in time. Or embrace the thrill of speed at Donington Park, where the roar of engines and the scent of rubber create an atmosphere charged with excitement, whether you’re watching a race or exploring the motorsport museum.
