About
Situated along the distinctive Hobbs Wick in Sileby, this well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home offers an unusual setting, generous accommodation and the added benefit of no upward chain.
The property is approached on foot via a pathway running alongside Sileby Brook and across a characterful bridge constructed in 1934 by local builder Arch Ward to serve the four homes he built beyond the stream.
This unique approach gives the property a sense of privacy and individuality rarely found within the village.
Inside, a small entrance hall leads into a spacious and modern lounge, featuring Karndean flooring and a large UPVC double-glazed window that fills the room with natural light.
To the rear is a recently refitted dining kitchen, fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, an inset sink, oven, hob and extractor.
There is also plumbing for a washing machine, space for a fridge freezer and ample room for a dining table and chairs.
The adjoining conservatory provides valuable additional living space, with Karndean flooring continuing through and windows overlooking the private rear garden.
Upstairs, the property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two generous doubles and a spacious single room.
The bathroom has also been refitted and includes a bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC, complemented by a distinctive circular window that adds further character.
Outside, the split-level rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and offers a private aspect, useful storage and gated side access.
The property does not have off-road parking; however, its peaceful pedestrian approach forms an important part of its unique appeal.
Further improvements include a full electrical rewire and the installation of a new combination boiler.
