This property is offered for sale through the Modern Method of Auction which is operated by iamsold Limited.

This well maintained three bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a generous plot within a sought after residential area. Offered with no upward chain the home represents a fantastic opportunity for any prospective purchaser to add immediate and significant value either through extension, the updating of the existing accommodation or a combination of both. The home is well positioned for a range of local amenities with a variety of shops and services only a short drive away. For commuters there are excellent road links into the city of Leicester and toward Fosse Park and Junction 21 of the M1/M69. The home is ideally suited to first time buyers who have the connections or diy skills to make the property their own and developers who might want to modernise and flip the property either for sale or for rent. The plot would allow scope for significant extension especially at the rear without compromising too much of the outside space and subject to local planning.

The accommodation itself includes an entrance porch which in turn leads through to an entrance hall which has the stairs rising to the first floor landing and a useful built-in cloakroom/storage cupboard. A door from the hallway opens to the lounge diner.

The lounge diner is generous with a large window to the front elevation that fills the room with plenty of natural light. The room has an older style gas mounted on a central chimney breast and there is ample room for a range of living room and dining furniture. A set of sliding patio doors open to a conservatory and a further door leads through to the kitchen.

The conservatory provides an additional reception space and enjoys views over the garden. A radiator means the conservatory is plumbed into the central heating system making the room functional throughout the year. A set of French patio doors open to the garden itself.

The kitchen is likely to be updated by most buyers but is certainly useable in the short term. There is a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer. There is space for a cooker, fridge and plumbing for a washing machine. A window overlooks the garden and a back door provides alternative access to the side and rear of the home. Many buyers will want to enlarge the kitchen space which if not done through extension could be done by knocking through to the dining space of the lounge diner.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double room with a window to the front elevation and benefitting from a range of fitted wardrobes and overhead storage. The second bedroom, another double, enjoys views of the garden and has a fitted wardrobe and drawers. The third bedroom is a versatile single room, which again benefits from a built-in wardrobe/cupboard but cold provide a potential office space if not required as a bedroom.

The one room which has been updated and has a contemporary feel is the refitted shower room which comprises a three-piece white suite to include a corner shower cubicle, low flush WC and wash hand basin that sits on top of a vanity unit.

To the front of the home a shingle front garden is ideal for garden ornaments and potted plants enhancing your homes kerb appeal. Adjacent to the front garden is a paved driveway which provides ample off-road parking and runs down the side of the property to a detached single garage set back in the rear garden. The garage has light and power and an up and over main door.

At the rear is a superb family garden with two paved patio seating areas at either end. These patio areas sandwich a lawn which is flanked on both side by shingle laid planted borders. The garden also includes a greenhouse and timber-built storage shed. The garden provides an excellent space for entertaining family and friends as well as a play area for children.

This much loved family home has abundant potential and is worthy of serious consideration to a plethora of potential buyers. Internal viewing to essential to truly appreciate the space it already offers and the future possibilities it holds.
