Description

This spacious detached house presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to create their ideal family home. Set on a generous plot, the property features a welcoming porch leading into a hallway that flows into a large lounge, enhanced by a bay window that fills the space with natural light. A log burner serves as a cozy focal point, making it perfect for family gatherings. The kitchen is well-proportioned and ready for a new owner to reimagine it according to their preferences, with an archway connecting to the dining area that accommodates a family-sized table. A conservatory adds further versatility to the ground floor layout. An impressive garden room, with dual aspect windows and direct access to the garden, offers potential as a second sitting room, games room, or home office. Completing the ground floor is a convenient cloakroom. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms are complemented by a family bathroom featuring a charming claw foot roll-top bath, which could benefit from some updating. The loft room adds even more flexible living space. Outside, a private sloping driveway provides ample parking, while the substantial wraparound garden is a highlight, offering numerous possibilities for outdoor entertaining and family activities. With its generous proportions and incredible potential, this property is well worth an internal viewing.

Confidence: LOW

This three-bedroom detached house presents an exciting opportunity for anyone looking to put their own stamp on a spacious family home. While the interiors are dated and show signs of general wear, the generous living areas and the impressive garden provide ample canvas for renovation. The kitchen offers excellent proportions and the potential for a modern redesign, while the claw foot bath in the bathroom adds a charming character touch that can be enhanced with further updating. With a medium renovation scope estimated between £50,000 and £100,000, buyers can envision transforming this property into a contemporary haven.

Situated on a fabulous plot in the convenient Aylestone area, this home benefits from a substantial wraparound garden that is perfect for entertaining or family life. Although there is no specific floor area available to assess the value against local £/sqf, the asking price of £400,000 is reasonable for the potential this property holds. Given the location's amenities and green spaces, this could be a strong investment for the right buyer willing to undertake the necessary works.
