3 bed bungalow for sale

Rosedale Road, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18

This highly impressive and very well presented three bedroom detached bungalow occupies an enviable plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac on the periphery of the Wigston Meadows estate. Its position, at the edge of the estate, means the plot backs out to open fields behind creating a wonderful feeling of both space and privacy, further enhanced by the 'wrap around' nature of the gardens. Although, not extended, the previous owners did add both a conservatory and a stunning sun lounge. Solar panels added to the South facing roof line are owned and have a significant impact both on energy efficiency and household bills. The bungalow is well positioned for a plethora of local amenities, with supermarkets, smaller shops and services, a variety of eateries, leisure and medical centres all a short drive or bus ride away. If you are looking for a detached bungalow, which requires minimal cosmetic work and in a fantastic position, you will not find many better examples locally.

Access to the bungalow is via a front door that opens into a welcoming entrance hall, off which is a useful cloakroom/storage cupboard. Doors off the hallway lead through to the lounge, kitchen, all three bedrooms and the shower room.

The lounge diner is a spacious 'l'-shaped room filled with plenty of natural light coming from patio doors that open to a conservatory and a further large window in the dining area that overlooks the garden. The main focal point of the room is a delightful feature fireplace in the lounge area that is set onto a central chimney breast. The room is ideal for hosting larger gatherings of family and friends, especially with the doors open to the conservatory, there is even more reception space.

The kitchen is neatly presented comprising a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units, lots of roll-edge work surface space and a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a ceramic hob, built-in, eye-level electric oven and a dishwasher. There is undercounter space for a fridge and plumbing for a washing machine. A glazed panel serving hatch opening to the dining area is a charming feature and a back door opens to a superb sun lounge.

The sun lounge is built onto the rear elevation of the bungalow. Made of a steel frame, there are then sliding glazed panels that can be closed or fully opened to create what can best be described as a covered veranda. It is a wonderful and rare addition to the home.

The principal bedroom is the largest of three bedrooms with a large window that looks over the garden to the side. The main bedroom benefits from a range of fitted furniture, including a wall of wardrobe space. Bedroom two, also looks out to the side elevation is a double room with ample space for a range of freestanding wardrobes and drawers. The third bedroom can also accommodate a double bed but does offer the versatility to be used as an office space or a dressing room if required.

Finally, the refitted shower room comprises a contemporary three piece white suite including a large walk-in shower with fixed screen, low flush WC and wash hand basin set onto a vanity unit.

To the outside a sweeping block paved driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles and could accommodate a motorhome or caravan if required. The driveway also gives direct car access to the garage which has a remote operated electric roller door, EV charging point, light and power. The garage can also be accessed from the rear via a door adjacent to the conservatory.

The position at the head of the Cul-de-Sac means the gardens wrap around three sides of the home. The conservatory looks out one side with a neat lawn, well-stocked planted beds and the first of two patio seating areas on which stands a timber-built summer house. The rear aspect which has the sun lounge has a further patio seating area and a hedge that which through any gaps are glimpses of the open fields behind. On the other side of the bungalow there is more green space with a lawn and a wide public access to the fields, which is predominately used by dog walkers.

This really is a very special bungalow and ones that offer, the space, presentation and position are often very hard to find. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
