Shipley Road, Evington, Leicester, LE5

This stylish detached family house with an appealing modern façade is located in sought-after location of Evington, with no onward chain.

An ample frontage provides plenty of off-road parking, while a large rear garden gives you ample space for an upsizing family. A rear extension boosts the living space downstairs, complemented by six good-sized bedrooms upstairs.

The property is set back from the pavement and has a full-width block paved driveway with borders on either side. The contemporary front door opens into a porch, an ideal space for shoes, boots and coats, with a second door into the entrance hall. On the right is a cloaks cupboard and on the left is the long living room that overlooks the front, which takes you into a secondary reception room to the rear.

From the hall is the impressive open-plan dining room, with a wood floor, and kitchen with a tiled floor. There is a range of wall, drawer and base units in the kitchen, which extends to the dining room, with work surfaces and tiled walls above. An inset stainless steel one-and-a-half bowl sink has a mixer tap. Integrated appliances include an oven with a gas hob and extractor hood above, a second gas hob, as well as space and plumbing for a washing machine.

Off the kitchen is an inner hall with a glazed door into the side access. Adjacent is the superb fully tiled shower room, which has a low-level WC, a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit with ample storage space below and a mirrored cabinet above, and an independent shower cubicle with a glass door.

From the entrance hall, the stairs take you up to the first-floor galleried landing, which gives access to six well-proportioned bedrooms, four of which benefit from fitted wardrobes, and the loft access. The fully tiled family bathroom has a white suite comprising a curved panelled bath with a mixer tap, a rainfall shower and a curved shower screen, a wash hand basin atop a vanity unit with a cupboard below, floor-to-ceiling storage combining drawers with cupboard space, and a heated towel rail. Next door is a part-tiled cloakroom with a low-level WC.

Outside offers lots of space with a wide block paved driveway at the front providing ample room for three to four cars and leading to the integral garage with a rolling door. A side access with a pedestrian gate takes you to the rear garden. Immediately behind the house is a large paved terrace with ample space for a table and chairs.

Steps lead up to an expansive lawned area, which is bordered by wood fence panels. There is a garden shed on the right and there are a range of established shrubs and trees around the garden.
