Description

This three-story mews townhouse offers a spacious layout and presents a valuable opportunity for renovation and investment. Built in 2001, the property is ideally located near the village center and Bosworth College, providing both convenience and potential rental appeal. Inside, the residence comprises three bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it suitable for families or as a rental property. The ground floor features an entrance hall leading to a cloakroom with a WC, alongside a kitchen equipped with base units, work surfaces, and space for appliances. The rear-facing lounge-diner boasts French doors that open onto the south-facing garden, allowing for ample natural light. The first floor accommodates two generously sized bedrooms and a bathroom. On the top floor, the master suite includes an en-suite shower room and built-in wardrobes—ideal for privacy and comfort. However, this home requires cosmetic updates throughout, presenting an excellent canvas for those looking to invest in renovations that can significantly enhance its value. Externally, the property has an overgrown garden that provides ample scope for landscaping or redesigning outdoor space—a potential highlight of any improvement plan. There is also a shallow garden at the front with slate chippings alongside existing shrubs. Parking is available via a nearby driveway and garage located approximately 50 yards from the front entrance. This property falls under Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council's jurisdiction with a current Council Tax Band C rating. Given its location near local amenities and educational institutions, combined with its renovation potential, this townhouse represents not just a place to live but also an opportunity for significant investment growth in the future.
