This extended three bedroom terrace townhouse occupies a plot within a sought after residential area close to a wide variety of local amenities. Offered with no upward chain the home is within walking distance of large supermarkets, smaller shops and services as well as several eateries. Wigston's leisure and medical centres is also only a short drive or bus ride away. This home is the only one of the nearest neighbours to have been extended and many are only two bedrooms not three, adding further versatility to the living space. The property will require some cosmetic updating and some buyers may want to reconfigure the internal space, however the potential to add value and create a wonderful home is fantastic.
Access to the home is via a front door that opens to an entrance area with stairs rising to the first floor landing and a door through to the lounge.
The lounge is filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a large bay window to the front elevation. The main focal point of the room is a feature fireplace that is set onto a central chimney breast. A door from the lounge opens to a dining room.
The dining room, prior to extension, was where the kitchen would have been located. However, the extension, allowed the kitchen to be moved, creating a second reception room. Although best used as a dining space this room could be used to suit the needs of a buyer.
The kitchen sits open plan to the dining room via a large archway. The kitchen includes a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a Belfast style sink. There is space for a cooker and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher. If the dishwasher was not needed there would be under counter space for a fridge. Any additional appliances could be placed in the dining room. A back door from the kitchen opens to the garden.
The final room on the ground floor is a shower room/wet room, which is situated off the dining area. The wet room comprises a shower area, low flush WC and wash hand basin. Many neighbouring homes have chosen to reposition the bathroom to the first floor, which is why many of them, come to market as two bedroom homes.
To the first floor, there are three bedrooms. The largest bedroom of the three is situated toward the front of the home and does have a range of fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom also benefits from a built-in wardrobe/storage cupboard. The third bedroom is a single room and could be used to reposition the bathroom upstairs, if preferred, or equally it could be an office space or dressing room if not required as a bedroom day-to-day.
The property is set back from the road via a small front garden enclosed by a cast iron railing and a gate. There is also secure gated side access to the rear via a passage shared with the immediate neighbour. At the rear, is a private and low maintenance courtyard style garden with timber-built storage shed.
This charming home has wonderful potential and with a little cosmetic work could be a super home with wide ranging appeal. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
