About
This very well presented two double bedroom terrace townhouse occupies an attractive plot within a sought after residential area that is within walking distance of numerous local amenities.
Offered with no upward chain the home has obviously been well looked after having been both improved and well maintained by the current owners.
Large supermarkets, a plethora of smaller shops, services and eateries as well as leisure and medical centres are all readily accessible and there are excellent road links into the city of Leicester and toward Fosse Park for those who commute.
For those that work from home there is an option to use one of the bedrooms as an office space.
The home is ideally suited to first time buyers, professional couples and even those looking to downsize whilst remaining close to various amenities.
Access to the home is via a main front door that opens to an entrance area with stairs rising to the first floor landing and a door that leads through to the lounge.
The lounge is filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a large bay window to the front elevation.
A wood burning stove set within an exposed brick fireplace with timber lintel provides a charming focal point and an under stairs recess offers storage space with a vertically hung radiator giving a modern design feature.
There is ample room for sofas as well as freestanding storage and display furniture. Behind the lounge is a well-appointed breakfast kitchen.
The kitchen includes an extensive range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll edge work surfaces that include a fixed breakfast bar/dining table.
There is a stainless-steel sink and drainer, integrated gas hob with extractor over and a built-in electric oven underneath. Further storage is provided by a pantry cupboard.
There is space for a tall freestanding fridge/freezer. A door from the kitchen opens to a sun/utility room.
The sun room is a versatile additional space, which if nothing more, offers useful storage room.
The current owners present this space as a utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
To the first floor, the principal bedroom is the largest of the two double bedrooms and enjoys views over the garden to the rear. There is ample space for freestanding wardrobes and drawers.
The second bedroom situated toward the front of the home could be used as a home office or dressing room if not required as a bedroom day-to-day.
The second bedroom also benefits from a built-in over stairs storage cupboard.
The bedrooms are serviced by a modern and fully tiled bathroom comprising a three-piece white suite including a bath with shower over, low flush WC and wash hand basin set on top of a vanity unit.
The home is set back from the pavement via a lawned front garden enclosed by a picket style fence which enhanced the homes kerb appeal.
Many neighbouring homes have applied to the local council to drop the kerb and use the front to create driveways for parking.
There is a shared access with the immediate neighbour only to the rear which provides access to further outdoor storage cupboards, ideal for garden tools and equipment.
At the rear is an attractively presented garden which includes a paved patio seating area accommodating a range of garden furniture allowing to entertain family and friends or simply relaxing and enjoying a cold drink in the summer months.
A lawn is surrounded by shingle and planted beds containing a variety of shrubs and flowering plants. Finally, a timber-built shed provides even more useful storage space.
