Description

Nestled in the sought-after area of Oadby, this spacious four-bedroom family residence on Forest Rise presents a prime opportunity for both comfortable living and substantial renovation. The property features an impressively extended ground floor layout that enhances its overall livability. The main lounge exceeds the original dimensions, offering a welcoming space ideal for family gatherings, while the expansive kitchen diner serves as an excellent central hub for daily activities and entertaining guests. Additionally, a separate formal dining room adds versatility, easily transitioning into alternative uses such as a home office or playroom. A noteworthy element is the roomy downstairs WC, which holds potential to be transformed into a full shower room due to its positioning adjacent to the garage—providing an opportunity to create a private ground-floor bedroom suite suitable for multigenerational living or guests. On the upper level, four generously sized double bedrooms await, some equipped with fitted wardrobes for added convenience. The family bathroom boasts a well-appointed four-piece suite including both a standalone bath and a walk-in shower. Future enhancements could include expanding the first floor (subject to planning permissions), further increasing the home's value in years to come. Outdoors, the property benefits from off-road parking for several vehicles via the driveway, along with a sizable garage. The southwest-facing rear garden features a large Yorkshire stone patio adjoining lawn space—a perfect canvas for outdoor living or further development should more space be desired. Situated in Leicestershire's desirable Oadby area, families will appreciate access to quality schools and local amenities including shops and parks, alongside convenient routes to Leicester city centre. This property offers significant potential for customization and growth, making it an intriguing prospect for those looking to invest.
