South Avenue, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This remarkable five bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a particularly generous plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac within walking distance of Wigston's main high street. Conveniently located for a wide variety of local amenities and schools the home is in close proximity to a plethora of shops, services and eateries. Due to its position within South Avenue the plot fans out to the rear and therefore offers scope to extend if desired and subject to local planning. However, the need to extend is debatable as the current owners have already converted the loft to create two additional bedrooms and knocked through the old outhouses at the rear to accommodate a utility room and ground floor shower room.

The accommodation includes an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and a useful under stairs storage cupboard. There are two reception rooms with a lounge having a window to the front elevation and a feature fireplace with exposed brick surround. The second reception is currently used a sitting room but could equally be a formal dining room if required. The room has a set of patio doors that open to a conservatory which is plumbed into the central heating and has a further set of French doors that open to the garden.

The kitchen has a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll edge work surfaces and stainless steel sink drainer. There is space for a range cooker and fridge freezer. The kitchen then wraps around into, the previously mentioned utility room where there is space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A door from the utility room leads into a ground floor shower room which comprises a three piece white suite to include a walk-in shower, low flush WC and wash hand basin.

To the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a further versatile single bedroom. What is surprising is that the single bedroom has not been overly compromised by the addition of a staircase that rises to the loft conversion. The principal bedroom does benefit from a set of built-in wardrobes.

Also on the first floor is a family bathroom which has been refitted to include a bath with shower over, a WC and a wash hand basin that sits on top of a storage unit.

The loft conversion is split into two useable bedrooms both of which fit double beds. There are two skylight windows to both bedrooms.

To the front of the home a block paved driveway provides ample off-road parking and there is secure gated access to the rear. At the rear is an amazing family garden with extensive patio areas giving a fantastic space to entertain and a lawn for children to play. A plethora of mature trees add further interest and appeal.

This really is a wonderful family home that provides spacious and versatile living accommodation and the plot allows huge potential for future development. Internal viewing is essential to truly appreciate this deceptive property.
