Freehold
Description
This two/three bedroom terrace home is offered with no upward chain and is conveniently located for a wide range of local amenities. Within walking distance of a wide selection of local shops and eateries the home is also close to a number of large supermarkets and South Wigston train station. The home itself will require modernisation and refurbishment throughout but any buyer willing to take on such a project will be able to add immediate and significant value within a sought after residential area with both re-sale and letting potential.
The accommodation itself comprises two reception rooms with either being able to be used as a lounge or dining room as preferred. The front room does have a feature fireplace which could potentially be salvaged to become a focal point of the room.
The dining room has a window to the rear elevation and a door that leads through to the kitchen. Between the lounge and dining room are the stairs rising to the first floor below which is a useful under stairs storage cupboard.
The kitchen will require refitting but has two windows to the side elevation. Beyond the kitchen is a ground floor bathroom which again will need updating.
To the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a further single bedroom which is accessed off the second bedroom. The principal bedroom is the largest of the three and is situated toward the front of the property. The second bedroom benefits from an over stairs storage cupboard/wardrobe.
Independent access to bedroom three can be created by putting up a stud wall to create a first floor landing although this would mean the size of bedroom two would be slightly compromised.
There would also be an option to move the bathroom upstairs which would result in the loss of the third bedroom but would create either a large kitchen or separate utility room downstairs which also has been done in neighbouring homes in the area.
Finally, there is a courtyard garden but it is overgrown and will need cutting back to be a functional space.
The possibilities for this property are many. As well as the suggestions above there is also an option to utilise the loft space and create further room there. All these suggestions would add significant value and broaden its appeal. Internal viewing is highly advised in order to appreciate the work required to restore this property into a fantastic home.
