REF- DA1155 Introduction Fully Renovated Two-Bedroom Bungalow | Turnkey Condition | South-Facing Garden | Off-Road Parking | No Onward Chain Brand new feel, single-storey living and a garden made for enjoying the sunshine!
If you’re looking for a home where the hard work has already been done, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom bungalow on Foston Gate, Wigston, deserves a closer look.
Recently completed to provide a fresh, modern feel throughout, the property offers the convenience of single-storey living alongside a landscaped south-facing garden, two rear parking spaces and further potential for additional hardstanding to the front and side.
Whether you’re downsizing, buying your first home or simply looking for a manageable property that’s ready to move straight into, this bungalow offers a great combination of practicality and outdoor space.
With no onward chain, you can focus on planning your next chapter without the added complication of an onward purchase.
Porch The property opens into a useful entrance porch, with double-glazed windows to the front and rear, a side-facing double-glazed window and a side double-glazed entrance door.
LVT flooring gives the space a smart, contemporary finish, while the glazing allows plenty of natural light to filter through.
A further double-glazed door leads into the main entrance hallway, creating a practical transition between the outside and the living accommodation.
Hallway The entrance hallway sets the tone for the home’s refreshed interior, with laminate flooring, ceiling spotlights and a radiator.
There is also a useful storage cupboard, loft access and doors leading to all the accommodation.
The central position of the hallway makes it easy to navigate the bungalow, with each room conveniently accessed from this space.
Lounge - 5.05m x 3.33m (16'7" x 10'11") The lounge is a comfortable, well-presented reception room, featuring a front-facing double-glazed window that brings in natural light.
Laminate flooring continues the modern finish, while a radiator provides warmth and ceiling spotlights complete the clean, contemporary look.
The room offers a versatile space to arrange your favourite furniture, whether you picture a comfortable sofa, a television area or a relaxing retreat at the end of the day.
With the renovation already completed, you can concentrate on furnishing the room to suit your own taste.
Kitchen - 3.38m x 2.67m (11'1" x 8'9") The kitchen has been thoughtfully fitted to provide a practical and stylish space for everyday cooking.
A front-facing double-glazed window sits directly above the sink, offering a lovely outlook over the green to the front — a pleasant feature when preparing meals or enjoying a morning coffee.
The kitchen includes a one-and-a-half-bowl sink with drainer, wall and base units, an AEG electric induction hob, AEG electric double oven, AEG stainless-steel cooker hood and integrated microwave.
There is also an integrated dishwasher, space and plumbing for a washing machine, and space for a fridge freezer. LVT flooring provides a smart finish, while tiled splashback areas add practicality.
A radiator provides warmth, and the Worcester Combi central heating boiler completes the essential fittings.
With its range of appliances, useful storage and attractive outlook, the kitchen is ready to serve the needs of its next owner without the immediate expense and disruption of a full refit.
Bedroom - 3.4m x 3.35m (11'2" x 11'0") The principal bedroom is a double room overlooking the rear garden through a double-glazed window.
Laminate flooring and a radiator continue the clean, refreshed presentation. There is space to create a comfortable bedroom retreat, with room for a double bed and additional furniture.
Its position at the rear of the bungalow also provides a pleasant connection with the garden.
Bedroom - 2.69m x 2.49m (8'10" x 8'2") The second bedroom is another double, offering a particularly appealing feature: rear-facing double-glazed French doors opening directly onto the garden.
These doors bring in natural light and provide direct access outside, creating a lovely connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Laminate flooring and a radiator complete the room.
This flexible space could work well as a guest bedroom, a second sleeping room, a hobby space or a home office, depending on your needs.
For those who enjoy having the garden close at hand, the French doors are a real bonus.
Bathroom The bathroom has been fitted with a double shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin set within a vanity unit.
Tiled walls provide a practical finish, while LVT flooring adds to the modern presentation.
A chrome towel rail provides warmth and a contemporary finishing touch, and a side-facing double-glazed window brings in natural light and ventilation.
The result is a smart, functional bathroom that complements the property’s freshly renovated interior.
South Facing Garden Step outside and discover one of the property’s biggest attractions: a landscaped, south-facing rear garden designed to be enjoyed.
The garden is enclosed by fencing and includes a lawn area alongside natural sandstone paving, creating an attractive balance between greenery and patio space.
Additional seating areas throughout the garden provide options for outdoor dining, relaxing in the sunshine or entertaining friends and family.
Side gated access adds practicality, while the layout offers different spots to enjoy throughout the day.
With its southerly aspect, the garden is particularly appealing for anyone who loves making the most of the warmer months.
Parking and External The property benefits from two parking spaces to the rear, providing valuable off-road parking close to the bungalow.
To the front and side, there is a further low-maintenance garden area, mainly gravelled and enclosed by fencing and hedging.
An outside tap adds convenience, and the space offers potential to investigate creating additional hardstanding for off-road parking or accommodating a larger vehicle, potentially including a motorhome, subject to access, suitability and any necessary permissions.
The opportunity to make further use of this area adds another layer of flexibility to the property, particularly for buyers with additional parking or storage needs.
Foston Gate With its recent renovation, two double bedrooms, modern kitchen and bathroom, landscaped south-facing garden and useful parking arrangements, this bungalow offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers seeking a home without a renovation project on their hands.
