3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Acorn Way, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18

This well presented and significantly extended three bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position on the popular Wigston Meadows estate. Well positioned for a plethora of local amenities the home is literally around the corner and within walking distance of the highly regarded Meadows Community Primary School. The current owner has chosen to refresh the decor prior to marketing and consequently there are new carpets laid in the lounge, up the stairs and landing and in all three bedrooms. The home has also been re-painted and is now a blank canvas ready for any prospective purchaser to make their own. The extension behind the garage accommodates a versatile room, off the kitchen diner, which could be used in several ways. The home is well-positioned for shops, services, leisure and medical centres, all of which are a short drive or bus ride away. Commuters will find excellent road links into the city of Leicester and for those working from home, the property offers multiple options to create office spaces.

Access to the home is via a front door that opens into an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor landing. A door from the hallway leads into the lounge.

The lounge is spacious and has a large window to the front elevation that fills the space with natural light. The room can be configured in various ways depending on furniture type and style. There is also a useful recess under the stairs which could be used for storage. A door from the lounge opens to the kitchen diner.

The kitchen diner is a modern space with a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with a high-gloss finish and with square-edge work surfaces that include a breakfast bar. There is a stainless-steel sink and drainer, integrated ceramic hob with extractor hood over and a built-in eye-level electric oven. In addition, there is space for a freestanding fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine. The dining area has ample space for a dining table and chairs and has a set of French patio doors that open to the garden. An archway then leads into the extension.

The extension creates a versatile room that could be used for many purposes. It could be a second sitting room or snug, those with younger children may use it as a play or games room, and for those that work from home, it could be a study or office, without having to compromise one of the upstairs bedrooms. Another set of patio doors provide another access point to the garden. A further door gives integral access into the garage.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is the largest of the three bedrooms and is situated toward the front of the home. A generous double room with two windows, there is ample space for a range of freestanding wardrobes and drawers. The second bedroom is a smaller double and enjoys views over the garden. The third bedroom is a single room and again offers the flexibility to be used as an office or dressing room, if not required as a bedroom day-to-day.

The bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom, that comprises a three-piece white suite including a bath with shower over, low flush WC and wash hand basin that is set on top of a vanity unit.

To the front of the home a hard standing driveway provides off-road parking as well as direct car access to the garage.

The garage has light, power and an up and over main door. If not used for parking, the garage offers useful additional utility and storage space, especially as it has a pitched roof.

To the rear is a relatively low maintenance garden with paved patio seating area, ideal for relaxing and entertaining in the warmer months. A lawn for children to play and has a timber-built shed for outdoor tools and equipment. There is also an outside tap.

This is a superb family home with wide ranging appeal. First time buyers, young families and even those looking to potentially downsize from a larger property should give this property serious consideration. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
