This charming two bedroom terrace townhouse occupies a plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position on the popular Wigston Harcourt estate. The home is well presented and has been well maintained by the current owner during throughout their ownership which has spanned a decade. Originally a one bedroom home, it was the previous owners who cleverly created a small but very useful second bedroom and they were also responsible for the addition of the conservatory which again provides versatile extra space. The home is quirky and characterful and is perhaps best suited to a person living alone, professional couple or even a buy-to-let investor looking for a home to rent out.

The accommodation itself includes a porch, and on into an entrance area which includes a built-in storage cupboard. The home does have a ground floor bathroom that is situated on the left hand side of the hall. The bathroom includes a three piece suite to include a bath, with shower over, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

A second door from the hall opens to an open plan ground floor space, which includes both a kitchen area and a reception space that can be laid out in a variety of ways. The open plan nature of the room makes it a fantastic space for family gatherings and entertaining friends.

The kitchen area includes a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and composite sink and drainer. There is an integral ceramic hob, built-in electric oven and integral fridge/freezer. In addition, there is space and plumbing for a washing machine.

The reception area of the room has the stairs rising to the first floor and a feature wall mounted electric fire set onto an exposed brick section of the wall. The current owner has the remaining space set up with a small table and chairs for dining and an armchair for relaxing and enjoying some downtime either watching the television or reading a good book.

A set of sliding patio doors then open to the conservatory, which again could be used in a variety of ways, including simply extra storage space but at present is used as an additional seating area with two sofas. A further set of patio doors open to the garden.

To the first floor the principal bedroom is a double room with a window to the front elevation and a built-in storage cupboard with further space for a freestanding wardrobe. The second bedroom is a versatile space which can accommodate a single bed but could also be used as an office space or dressing room if preferred. There is a Velux skylight window in the sloping ceiling.

To the front of the property a pebbled driveway provides off-road parking and at the rear there is a relatively low maintenance garden, enclosed by tall timber panel fencing. The garden also benefits from a timber-built storage shed with light and power supply with the current owner using it as a utility space to accomodate the tumble dryer.

This delightful and individual home will appeal to a variety of potential buyers and internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate all it has to offer.
