Description
This three-bedroom semi-detached house is set in a cul-de-sac in Wigston and has an open-plan lounge and dining room, a fitted kitchen with an adjoining utility area, and a first-floor bathroom. The lounge has a bay window, while the dining area opens onto the rear garden. The existing layout could be reconfigured to create a kitchen-diner.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with a bay window and a second bedroom with fitted wardrobes. The third bedroom is currently used as a home office. The bathroom has a bath with an overhead shower.
Outside, the rear garden includes a patio and lawn, and the driveway provides off-road parking. The listing identifies potential to extend to the side or rear, subject to planning permission. Wigston town centre, local shops and services, schools, parks, bus links to Leicester and road connections towards the motorway network are described as within reach.

58out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This looks like a usable three-bedroom home with a bright, open-plan lounge-diner, a generous driveway and a garden with both lawn and patio. The finishes are clean but somewhat dated, so the £5,000–£12,000 renovation range points to a light cosmetic refresh rather than a major overhaul. The garden and stated side and rear extension potential offer scope to shape the home further, subject to planning permission and feasibility.
The score is held back by missing floor-area information: without it, value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. Wigston’s cul-de-sac setting, off-road parking and practical layout give the property a solid starting point, but the value picture needs that area figure.
Key opportunities
- Refresh dated carpets and décor to give the usable living spaces a more contemporary feel.
- Make the most of the lawn-and-patio garden, greenhouse and established planting as an outdoor living space.
- Explore the stated side or rear extension potential, subject to planning permission and a feasibility check.
