Description
This three-bedroom detached house is offered with no upward chain and has a wide corner plot with gardens wrapping around the property. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, two separate reception rooms divided by folding doors, and a rear kitchen with a small conservatory. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a re-fitted family shower room.
The frontage is mainly block paved and provides parking for several vehicles, with access to a detached garage. Lawned garden areas and mature borders extend around the house, with a patio at the rear. The property has uPVC double glazing and gas central heating, but requires internal modernisation. The listing notes scope to extend to both sides, subject to the necessary consents. Local schools, shops and leisure facilities are nearby, with access to Wigston and Leicester city centres, Fosse Retail Park and the motorway network.

44out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This detached three-bedroom house has a useful corner-plot setting, parking for several vehicles and gardens wrapping around the property. The visible brickwork and tiled roof appear broadly intact, while the rear garden and weathered hardstanding offer straightforward scope for improvement; the listing also describes the interior as needing modernisation, though the submitted photos do not show inside.
The asking price is £234,950, but floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The score is held back by limited renovation-economics data, while the plot, setting and potential to extend to both sides subject to consents give the project clear appeal.
Key opportunities
- Improve the rear garden with clearance and basic reinstatement, making better use of the wraparound outdoor space.
- Modernise the interior to create a more current family home; the listing describes two reception rooms and a small conservatory.
- Explore the stated potential to extend to both sides, subject to consents and feasibility.
