Flat 8, 76 Clarendon Park Road, Leicester, LE2 3AL

Tenure: Leasehold Before it was an apartment, it was a classroom. Madeleine House on Clarendon Park Road was built in 1890 as St.

John's Church School, designed by renowned local architects Everard and Pick, and known affectionately by locals as "Johnnies." It served the community for decades before closing as a school in 1974, later becoming offices for the Red Cross.

The building has since been sympathetically converted into luxury apartments, picking up a Leicester Civic Society commendation for the quality of its restoration along the way.

This second floor apartment offers two double bedrooms, an open plan living and dining room, a well-specified kitchen, two bathrooms, a private south-facing terrace, lift access and an allocated parking space in the rear courtyard.

The building retains its original red brick facade, distinctive stepped gables and newly installed double-glazed timber windows throughout.

The entrance hallway is accessed via a wide timber door and features solid oak flooring, a full-length mirror and a radiator.

A dedicated storage cupboard housing the fuse board is located off the hall.

The open plan living and dining room is a generous double aspect space benefiting from four timber double-glazed windows to the rear elevation, solid hardwood flooring and two contemporary radiators.

The space comfortably accommodates a large dining table and separate sitting area.

The kitchen is fitted with a full range of gunmetal grey base and tall units with stainless steel worktops and open stainless steel shelving above, set against a black gloss metro tile splashback.

Integrated Siemens appliances include an electric hob with extractor over, electric oven, microwave, fridge-freezer, washer-dryer and dishwasher. A glazed door opens directly onto the private terrace.

The terrace is south-facing, sits above roofline level and offers open views across the surrounding rooftops. A genuinely usable outdoor space with room for outdoor dining and seating.

The master bedroom includes a dressing area, timber double-glazed windows to the side elevation and access to the Jack and Jill bathroom.

That bathroom serves both the master bedroom and the entrance hall and is finished with floor to ceiling tiling, a panelled bath, Mira electric shower with glass screen, pedestal basin and chrome heated towel rail.

The second bedroom has a timber double-glazed window to the front and is served by a private en-suite shower room with glass-screened cubicle, wall-hung basin with storage and WC.
