Freehold

Description

This three bedroom semi-detached home is offered with no upward chain and occupies a generous plot that offers scope to extend, subject to planning, especially to the rear. Conveniently located for a wide range of local amenities including large supermarkets, Oadby's parade of shops and services and within the catchment for a number of the highly regarded schools the property is well positioned. The home lies just of the A6 and therefore has excellent commuter links both into and out of the city of Leicester. The home itself does requires modernisation and refurbishment throughout but does offer the opportunity for any buyer to add value and make the home their own.

The accommodation includes a porch and on into an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and two under stairs storage cupboards. Doors from the entrance hall lead through to the dining room and kitchen.

The dining room is one of two reception rooms. A set of double doors from the dining room open to the lounge situated toward the front of the home. The lounge has a bay window to the front elevation and a stone clad feature fireplace. The double doors between dining room and lounge mean that the rooms can be closed off or opened up to create one large reception space for larger gatherings. The dining room also has a feature fireplace with a back boiler behind. A set of sliding patio doors open to the garden.

The kitchen will require updating and many will say it needs enlarging. This could be done either through extension or the kitchen could be knocked through into the dining room to create a larger open plan kitchen diner space. A back door from the kitchen leads out to a covered side access which leads to a WC situated in an outbuilding.

To the first floor, there are two double bedrooms, either of which could be used as the principal bedroom. One of the bedrooms has a window to the front elevation whilst the other overlooks the rear garden. There is a versatile third single bedroom which could be used as a working/office space or a dressing room if not required as a bedroom.

Also on the first floor is a bathroom which comprises a bath and wash hand basin with a separate WC. If a bigger bathroom space is desired the WC and bathroom could again be knocked into one space.

To the front of the home a there is a low maintenance garden is surrounded by a low brick wall and cast iron gate. At the rear is a generous and private garden which is also very low maintenance. Toward the back of the garden there is a detached brick built garage which is accessed by car via Fairfield Road. This provides off-road parking and useful storage space.

This home is packed with potential and it does not take too much imagination to realise how superb this property could be turned into. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
