Fernhurst Road, Leicester, Leicestershire, LE3

This property is offered for sale through the Modern Method of Auction which is operated by iamsold Limited. The auction will end on the 11th November at 2pm.

This three bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a generous plot within a sought after residential area. Offered with no upward chain the home is conveniently located for a plethora of local amenities including supermarkets and a wide array of independent shops and eateries. For commuters the home has excellent road links into the city of Leicester and is only a short drive away from Junction 21 of the M1/M69 for those travelling greater distances. The property itself does require extensive modernisation and refurbishment throughout but the potential for any buyer to add immediate and significant value through renovation is obvious. the plot would also allow scope for extension both to the side and to the rear of the home subject to local planning.

The accommodation itself includes an entrance hall, with stairs rising the first floor and a corner cupboard which houses the gas and electric meters. Doors from the entrance hall lead through to the lounge and into the kitchen.

The main lounge is spacious and has a bay window to the front elevation. A set of folding doors open to the dining room. The lounge and dining room can therefore be separated or the folding doors opened to create a large reception space for larger family gatherings and social events. The dining room has a window to the rear and a door that offers an alternative access point into the kitchen.

The kitchen will almost certainly be updated but it does have a window to the rear elevation that overlooks the garden and a back door that offers access to a covered car port at the side and in turn the rear garden. There is also a built-in pantry cupboard. Although the is ample scope to extend the kitchen could also be enlarged by removing the wall between the kitchen and dining room to form a more open plan kitchen diner.

To the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a versatile single third bedroom. The principle bedroom has a bay window to the front elevation whilst the second double room overlooks the garden at the rear. The second bedroom also has a built-in airing cupboard which accommodates the boiler and water tank. The third bedroom could be used as an office or even a dressing room if not required as a bedroom.

Finally, there is a first floor bathroom, which again will almost definitely be replaced but currently has a three piece suite to include a bath with electric shower over, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

To the front of the home a block paved driveway provides ample off-road parking and there is side access to the rear via a set of timber gates.

There is a covered car port to the side of the home and beyond that a detached single garage. At the rear is a good size and relatively low maintenance garden with paved patio seating area and a lawn enclosed by tall timber panel fencing.

There is no doubt that although significant work is required the potential this family home has to offer is enormous. Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciation the scope the property provides.
