8, Farr Wood Close, Leicester, LE6 0FX

Extended, improved and thoughtfully modernised, this three-bedroom semi-detached home sits proudly on a corner plot, offering something that is becoming increasingly difficult to find: Fantastic off-road parking, a detached garage, generous outside space and even room for a caravan.

Some family homes simply make life easier — and this is one of them. Step inside and the feeling of space continues.

The entrance hall leads into a beautifully open-plan sitting and dining area, where matching wooden flooring flows seamlessly through the space.

There’s plenty of room for the family to relax together, while the dining area creates the perfect setting for everything from everyday family meals to entertaining friends.

Wall panelling adds a stylish touch, while patio doors lead through to the conservatory — a fantastic additional reception room that can be enjoyed throughout the year.

With plenty of natural light, tiled flooring and French doors opening onto the garden, it’s an incredibly versatile space that could work as a playroom, home office, second sitting room or simply somewhere to escape with a coffee.

At the heart of the home is the extended kitchen, designed with family life in mind.

There’s a good range of wall and base units, a breakfast bar, integrated dishwasher, freestanding gas cooker and two windows overlooking the garden.

A useful storage cupboard with shelving sits just off the kitchen, while a further door provides direct access outside. There’s also the added convenience of a ground-floor WC.

Upstairs, three bedrooms provide the flexibility modern families need. The principal bedroom is a generous double with fitted wardrobes featuring mirrored sliding doors and stylish wall panelling.

Bedroom two is another excellent-sized double and also benefits from fitted wardrobes, while bedroom three is currently used as a home office — perfect for those needing dedicated workspace.

The family bathroom has been transformed into a modern shower room, with a large enclosed shower, vanity unit, heated towel rail, contemporary suite and recessed lighting.

And then there’s the practical side of family life — because having the space is one thing, but having somewhere to put everything is another.

The property offers parking for three vehicles, along with a detached single garage featuring an electric door, power, lighting, windows and a side door providing access from the garden.

Outside, the corner plot really comes into its own.

There’s a lawned rear garden, raised flowerbeds and a raised decked seating area — the ideal spot for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the garden.

There’s also additional storage and gated access from the driveway.

The property has already been extended and improved, yet the generous corner plot could offer the opportunity for further enlargement, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

Add in the benefit of solar panels providing a yearly income, this is a home that offers not just space for today, but exciting possibilities for tomorrow as a growing family.

Modernised, extended, incredibly practical and sitting on a generous corner plot — this is the kind of family home that gives you room to live, room to park and room to grow.
