** Open House Event ** 26th, 27th, 28th September. Please call Spencer’s to book your viewing slot on This three bedroom semi-detached family home is offered with no upward chain and occupies a generous plot within walking distance of Wigston's main High Street and it's plethora of shops, services and eateries. The plot does allow scope for future extension both to the side and rear subject to local planning. As well as being close to the shops the home is also conveniently located for larger supermarkets and both the local medical and leisure centres. Internally, the home has been well-maintained but many buyers will look to modernise the home giving any potential purchaser the opportunity to add immediate and significant value.
The accommodation itself includes an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor landing and a useful under stairs storage cupboard. Doors from the entrance hall open to the dining room and lounge.
The dining room is the smaller of two reception room and is situated toward the front of the home. Although named as a dining room this is a versatile space that buyers could use as a playroom, snug or office space if required.
The main lounge is larger and filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a set of French patio doors that lead out to the garden. The main focal point of the room is a living flame gas fire that is set into a feature fireplace. To the right of the chimney breast is a built-in alcove storage cupboard. A door from the lounge opens to the kitchen.
The kitchen has a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless-steel sink and drainer. There is space for a cooker, and space and plumbing for both a washing machine and slimline dishwasher. The kitchen also has an integral fridge/freezer. The kitchen could be enlarged through either extension or reconfiguration of the ground floor. The wall between the lounge and kitchen could be taken out to form a feature kitchen diner with the front reception room becoming an intimate lounge. An extension would mean the kitchen could be moved altogether.
Off the kitchen there is a lobby area with a back door that opens to the side of the home and provides an alternative access point to the garden. Off this lobby area is a large pantry cupboard offering handy extra storage space and a ground floor WC and wash hand basin.
To the first floor, the landing has an airing cupboard and doors off to the two of the bedrooms and the bathroom.
The principal bedroom overlooks the garden to the rear and is a generous double room and benefits from a built-in wardrobe/cupboard in one of the alcoves to the side of the chimney breast. Unusually, the access to bedroom three is off the main bedroom, which means it would be a superb space for a nursery. Bedroom three could also be used as a dressing room to the main bedroom or a potential working space. With the ground floor WC and family bathroom being on the same side of the property as bedroom three an en-suite to the main bedroom could also be created.
The second bedroom is also a double room and like the main bedroom benefits from a built-in wardrobe/alcove cupboard.
The family bathroom comprises a three-piece white suite to include a corner bath with shower over, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.
To the front of the home a driveway provides off-road parking for at least two vehicles and there is secure gated access to the rear at the side of the home.
At the rear is a mature and private family garden with paved patio seating area and a lawn flanked on either side by well stocked planted borders containing a variety of trees, shrubs and flowering plants. The garden also has a timber-built storage shed and a further metal store.
This superbly positioned home has fantastic potential and has wide ranging appeal for anyone looking to make a home their own. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
