3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Repton Road, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18

This three bedroom semi-detached family home is offered with no upward chain and occupies a generous corner plot within a sought after residential area. The corner plot has allowed for an extension to be built to the side between the home and the garage which gives the property a second spacious reception room, although the space has a versatility of use. The home conveniently located for a wide spectrum of local amenities including supermarkets, smaller shops and eateries as well as leisure and medical facilities. The property has been well maintained and includes a modern refitted shower room. However, some updating is required giving any prospective purchasers the opportunity to add significant and immediate value.

Access to the home is via a main front door that leads into an entrance hall. The hallway has stairs rising to the first-floor landing. Doors off the hall open to the kitchen and lounge diner.

The lounge diner is light and spacious with a large bay window to the front elevation and a set of sliding patio doors that open to the garden at the rear. This makes the room dual aspect and filled with plenty of natural light. The main focal point of the room is a feature fireplace set onto an angled fireplace, a commonly found feature, in many of these Jelson built, bay fronted semi-detached homes within the immediate area.

The kitchen includes a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a one and a half bowl composite sink drainer. There is space for a cooker and under counter space for a fridge and freezer as well as plumbing for a washing machine. There is a window that overlooks the garden and a door that opens to the extension and the second reception room. Without further extension there would be options to increase the size of the kitchen by either knocking though to the dining section or going the other way into the extension to create a feature kitchen diner.

As previously mentioned, the extension is currently used as a second reception room. There are windows to both front and rear, making this another dual aspect space. A back door opens to the garden and there is also a personal door into the adjacent garage. An under stairs storage cupboard is also accessed via this room. This space is versatile and could be used as a playroom for children, a hobby/games room or even a study or office for those who work from home.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is the largest of the three bedrooms and benefits from two built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom is also a well-proportioned double room and again has a built-in wardrobe. The third bedroom is a versatile single room with a further built-in storage cupboard over the bulkhead of the stairs.

Finally, there is a refitted shower room comprising a modern three-piece white suite to include a large walk-in shower with fixed screen, low flush WC and wash hand basin set onto a vanity unit.

Being on the corner the home has a generous frontage with a shingle front garden and hard standing driveway that provides off-road parking as well as direct car access to the garage.

At the rear is a private, low maintenance garden consisting mainly of a paved patio seating area with a small section of lawn. The garden also has a timber-built storage shed. The plot does provide scope for further extension subject to local planning.

This versatile home has fantastic future potential and has wide ranging appeal. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
