Description

This spacious detached family home, built in 1937, is situated in the desirable Stoneygate area of Leicester, offering a fantastic opportunity for further extension. The property is set on a wider-than-average plot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, providing both privacy and ample outdoor space. Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway featuring original parquet flooring and elegant ceiling coving. The sitting room boasts a bay window and a charming feature fireplace, seamlessly connecting to the dining room, which also has bay windows and direct access to the rear garden. The well-appointed kitchen features grey wall and base units, blockwood worktops, and integrated appliances including a Bosch oven and induction hob. A convenient downstairs WC and utility store complete the ground floor layout. Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to four generously sized bedrooms, with the master bedroom benefiting from built-in wardrobes and a bay window. The contemporary family bathroom is beautifully finished with a freestanding roll-top bath and a large walk-in shower. Outside, the gravelled frontage provides ample off-road parking and access to the garage. The west-facing rear garden is an ideal space for family gatherings, featuring lawn areas, paved patios, and mature trees for added privacy. This property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled family home in one of Leicester's most sought-after locations, with generous accommodation and excellent potential for future development.

Confidence: LOW

This spacious detached family home in Stoneygate is an appealing opportunity for buyers looking for character and potential. While the asking price of £565,000 is notably above the local average at £371/sqf, which may deter some, the property boasts excellent fundamentals and is well-maintained. With features like a modern kitchen, a contemporary bathroom, and spacious living areas, it offers a solid foundation for further improvements or extensions, especially given its desirable location and wider-than-average plot.

Although this property is priced on the higher side, its appealing features and layout provide a canvas for personalisation. The spacious garden and open living spaces are perfect for family life, and the original character elements add charm. If you're prepared to navigate the price dynamics, this could be a worthwhile investment with potential for value creation through thoughtful updates or expansions.
