Description

A beautifully refurbished one bedroom cottage ideally situated on the ever-popular South Knighton Road. Perfect for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize, this charming home offers character, modern updates, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

The property is considered an ideal investment opportunity having been rented until recently at £795 pcm, and also provides the potential for a future loft conversion (subject to the necessary planning consents).

Location - Egerton Houses are tucked away on a quiet, cobbled entrance in the heart of South Knighton, one of the most fashionable areas of Leicester, with convenient access to the nearby Allandale Road/Francis Street shopping parades and Leicester city centre with it's professional quarters and mainline rail access to London St Pancras in just over one hour.

Accommodation - A smart composite front door leads into the bright yet cosy sitting room, with a window to the front elevation, wood laminate flooring, an inglenook recess perfect for a decorative log burner into the chimneybreast with a bespoke fitted cupboard and shelving to the side. A step down leads into the inviting kitchen, boasting a good range of white eye and base level units and drawers, shelving, wood effect preparation surfaces and a stainless steel sink and drainer unit with a mixer tap. Integrated appliances include a Whirlpool washing machine and a Leisure double oven with hob and extractor unit above, all set against a stylish sage green metro tiled splashback. This generous space houses the wall-mounted boiler and has a window and a door directly onto the courtyard garden.

To the first floor a freshly carpeted landing leads to a spacious double bedroom with a front facing window, newly fitted carpet and a useful overstairs storage cupboard with access to the loft (thought suitable for conversion subject to the necessary planning consents). The beautifully finished bathroom provides a contemporary white three piece suite comprising a panelled bath with drench shower over, a pedestal wash hand basin with fixed mirror over and an enclosed WC. There is an obscure glazed window for natural light and privacy, a chrome heated towel rail, a built-in cupboard providing excellent storage, part tiled wall and tiled flooring.
