Description

A four-bedroom detached house in Evington, set on a private plot and offering scope to update or reconfigure the accommodation. The entrance hall connects to a ground-floor WC, the integral garage and the main living areas. At the front, the fitted kitchen has wall and base units and could be modernised to suit a new owner's requirements. The rear reception space is arranged over split levels, with distinct lounge and dining areas. It opens to a conservatory overlooking the garden, which could serve as an additional sitting room, playroom or workspace. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a principal room with built-in storage and a shower area, alongside a family bathroom. The secluded rear garden includes lawn, mature planting, established apple trees and areas for seating, as well as a timber outbuilding for storage. At the front, a private driveway provides off-road parking and access to the integral garage. The plot may offer scope for further changes or an extension, subject to planning and other necessary checks. Evington Village is nearby for local shops and cafés, with Stoneygate and Oadby also within reach. The listing notes nearby schools and recreational facilities, access to Leicester city centre and connections via the A47 and A563 to the wider road network. Leicester railway station is also described as accessible.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

81out of 100
Grade AStrong opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £550,000, this four-bedroom detached home is priced at £209 per sq ft, well below the local average of £289 — a strong opportunity to acquire a substantial family house at a comparatively low entry price. The interiors are clean and usable, with older-style finishes offering a straightforward cosmetic refresh rather than an obvious major repair project; the kitchen and bathroom both provide scope to update to your taste.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen and bathroom finishes as part of a manageable cosmetic project.
  • Make the most of the spacious split-level lounge/diner and conservatory for flexible family living.
  • Enjoy the established, private garden, with mature planting, seating areas and a timber outbuilding.
