Situated in Thurnby, just off the A47 that connects Leicester to Peterborough, the home is conveniently located for a wide range of local amenities. Supermarkets, medical and leisure centres as well as reputable schooling for all age groups can be found nearby. For commuters there are excellent road links to various districts of Leicester and out of the city toward Market Harborough and Uppingham. The home itself is spacious and versatile, however, it will require modernisation throughout.
The accommodation includes a porch and on into an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor dormer, an understairs storage cupboard and a further cupboard which houses the boiler.
The main lounge is situated toward the rear of the home and has a set of French patio doors that open to the garden. The room also enjoys a focal point of a fabulous feature fireplace.
The kitchen is likely to updated but it is in good working condition and includes a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and one and a half bowl composite sink drainer. There is space for a cooker and fridge freezer, as well as plumbing for a washing machine. There is a window to a front elevation and a back door that opens to a conservatory at the side of the home. A further door leads through to a versatile room that is currently used a sitting room or snug but could also be used as a dining area or even third bedroom if required. Another possibility would be to knock the kitchen and snug into one larger space creating a feature kitchen diner.
The conservatory to the side provides further seating and utility space and also acts as a covered side access from front to back.
Bedroom One is located of the other side of the bungalow to the kitchen and has a window overlooking the garden. A generous double room means there is ample room for a freestanding wardrobe and drawers. Bedroom Two is a single room with a window to the front elevation.
Finally, on the ground floor, is a shower room comprising a cubicle shower and a pedestal wash hand basin, which sits adjacent to a separate WC.
A set of stairs lead up to a dormer level with a landing space that has plenty of built-in storage cupboards including access into the eaves. There is then a loft room, which has been used as a double bedroom but has not been signed off by building control and can therefore only be described as a loft or attic room.
To the front of the home there is a garden and driveway There is then a rear garden that wraps around to the side of the home. Although, some taming is required the garden is a mixture of paved patio seating areas and paved pathways with planted beds containing a wealth of flora. As previously mentioned the grounds do offer scope for extension subject to local planning.
This much loved family home has massive potential to add significant and immediate value. Situated in a sought after residential area and with many of the neighbouring homes already extended and modified this home will especially appeal to those who enjoy making a property their own.
