Description

This end-of-terrace two-bedroom property in Shepshed presents a promising opportunity for those looking to invest or renovate. Nestled in a location known for its excellent transport links and proximity to both primary and secondary schools, the home is conveniently positioned for families and commuters alike. On entering, you are welcomed into a living room that features a double-glazed front window, providing ample natural light. This comfortable space connects to a versatile dining/family room, which can serve multiple functions depending on your preferences. A large storage cupboard adds practicality, while the adjacent kitchen—part of an extension—features wall and base units along with several integrated appliances including an electric oven and hob. A skylight enhances the kitchen's brightness, and there is direct access to the outside through a side door. As you transition to the first floor, you will find a landing leading to two spacious double bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with essential amenities. The main bedroom faces the front of the property and includes built-in storage, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear garden. The outdoor space is particularly noteworthy; accessible via shared pathways from neighboring properties, the enclosed garden offers a mixture of lawned areas and established borders alongside a gravel seating space at the rear—ideal for outdoor gatherings. An outbuilding presents additional potential; while currently unused, it could be transformed into a functional workspace or storage area after renovation. It’s worth noting that there is evidence of damp on one side wall that may require further inspection or remediation by future owners. With its unique blend of character features, ample living space, and investment opportunities for renovation, this property could become a charming home or lucrative rental in an increasingly desirable area.
