Gloucester Crescent, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This extended and well presented three bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a low maintenance plot within a sought after residential area. Conveniently located for a variety of local shops and amenities both in Wigston Magna and South Wigston there superb access to schooling of all ages and commuter roads in and out of the city. This gives the home wide ranging appeal but perhaps best suited to young families with the local Primary school just around the corner.

The home has generally been well maintained and looked after but may need an updated kitchen at some stage although it is certainly a home that can be moved into and enjoyed with any improvements or decorative changes done on a room by room basis.

The accommodation and layout are typical of many of the similar semi-detached homes on the estate. There is an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and a useful under stair storage cupboard and doors leading through to a kitchen and an 'L' shaped lounge diner.

The lounge diner is duel aspect with a window to the front elevation and a set of sliding patio doors that open to the garden and creating a fantastic space to both relax and to entertain.

The kitchen has a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless steel sink drainer. There is space for a cooker with chimney extractor hood and space for a fridge freezer. There is plumbing for a washing machine, with the car port/garage providing an additional laundry option.

Beyond the kitchen is a versatile extra room created through extension. There is a set of French doors that open to the garden making it a useful extra sitting room, although it could equally be used as a playroom or even a work space if preferred.

To the first floor the principal bedroom is a generous double room with plenty of space for freestanding wardrobes and drawers and a window to the front elevation. The second bedroom is also a double and overlooks the garden. Bedroom Three is a single room but is the bedroom that has a good size built-in storage cupboard/wardrobe. Also on the first floor is a refitted family bathroom comprising a three piece suite including a bath with a shower.

To the front of the property a hard standing driveway that provides off-road parking and direct car access to a covered car port that runs down the side of the home. The home's kerb appeal is enhanced by a front garden with a lawn and surrounded on two sides with planted borders.

To the rear is a low maintenance paved garden with raised patio seating area, a patio immediately outside the lounge diner that currently accommodates a hot tub. (not included in the sale). There is a raised planted border giving the garden some greenery and a timber built storage shed. Also set back into the garden is a detached single garage.

This is already a superb family home but there is always scope to add further value and space through extension either to the side or rear and subject to planning. Internal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this wonderful home and the future potential that could be unlocked.
