3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Simons Close, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18

This charming and well-presented three bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position on the popular Wigston Harcourt estate. The plot would provide scope to extend, especially to the side of the home where there is currently a detached garage, subject to local planning. The home is conveniently positioned for a wide range of amenities including large supermarkets and homeware stores, smaller shops and services, a plethora of eateries as well as leisure and medical facilities, all of which are either a short drive away or via a regular bus service with stops along Foston Gate. Commuters will find excellent road links into the city of Leicester. The home is ideally suited to first time buyers, but young families, downsizers and buy-to-let investors should also give this delightful home serious consideration.

Access to the property is via a recently fitted composite front door and onto an entrance area with stairs rising to the first floor landing and a door that opens to the lounge.

The lounge has a bow window to the front elevation that fills the space with plenty of natural light. The main focal point of the room is a fantastic feature fireplace with an ornate mantelpiece and raised hearth. A set of double doors from the lounge opens to the dining area and kitchen situated toward the rear of the property.

The dining area provides ample space for a dining table and chairs and has a set of French patio doors that open to a conservatory at the rear. An open archway from the dining area leads into the kitchen

The conservatory offers a very useful extra space. The current owners predominantly use the space as a playroom, but it does provide the flexibility to be used as an office space or a further reception room if required.

The kitchen has a range of base and wall mounted storage and display units with roll-edge work surfaces and a one and a half bowl composite sink and drainer. There is an integral gas hob with extractor hood over and a built-in double oven underneath. As well as the integral appliances there is under counter space for a freestanding fridge and space and plumbing for a washing machine. There is a window to the side elevation and a back door that provides alternative access to the garden. If buyers wanted to create a larger kitchen diner space the obvious requirement would be the removal of the partition wall between the kitchen and dining area which would be a relatively straightforward undertaking.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a double room that benefits from a wall of fitted wardrobes and overhead storage but has a further over stairs storage cupboard. The second and third bedrooms are smaller single rooms, but both enjoy views over the rear garden. If the third bedroom is not required on a day-to-day basis it could easily be used as a working space or even a dressing room.

Also on the first floor is a family bathroom comprising a three-piece white suite to include a bath with shower over, low flush WC and wash hand basin set onto a vanity/storage unit.

To the front of the home a large driveway provides ample off-road parking as well as direct car access to the detached garage at the side of the home. Between the house and garage there is secure gated side access to the rear.

At the rear is a private family garden which has a paved patio seating area and a lawn ideal for children to play. Behind the garage there is also a useful timber-built storage shed.
