Parkdale Road, Thurmaston, LE4

Located on the sought-after Dales Estate in Thurmaston, this family home has been extended to provide four bedrooms, yet still offers plenty of scope to further enhance and create your forever home. The property occupies a stand-out plot with a larger-than-average rear garden, a driveway providing ample off-road parking, and access to an impressive 35ft garage. Inside, there are two reception rooms as well as three double bedrooms upstairs and a practical single bedroom, offering versatile living space throughout. Having been owned by the same family since 1961, this much-loved home is a rare opportunity on the market. While modernisation is required, the property is offered with no upward chain and presents exceptional potential to transform into a truly stunning family residence.

Welcome to Parkdale Road

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed into an entrance hallway featuring a staircase rising to the first floor and a useful under-stairs storage cupboard. The main reception room centres around a feature fireplace and enjoys an abundance of natural light from a large front-facing window. A door leads through to the formal dining room, ideally positioned adjacent to the kitchen and offering excellent potential to be reconfigured into an open-plan kitchen diner, as seen in many neighbouring homes (subject to the necessary consent).

The kitchen is currently fitted with a range of units, an inset sink and drainer, and provides ample space for appliances, along with a pantry and additional storage. A rear access door offers direct entry to the garden.

Moving Upstairs

Moving upstairs, you’ll find four well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which are doubles, perfect for growing families in need of extra space. The fourth bedroom is a versatile single, ideal for use as a nursery, home office, or guest room. The first floor is completed by a modern bathroom fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a bath with shower over, wash basin, and WC, complemented by tasteful tiling and dual access doors. The landing also provides access to useful loft space and an airing cupboard.

Outside

Outside, the rear of the property features a mainly laid to lawn garden, offering plenty of space for families to enjoy. The garden also benefits from two brick-built outbuildings providing additional storage, along with a larger-than-average garage fitted with an up-and-over door, power, and lighting, perfect for use as a workshop or secure parking. To the front, a block-paved driveway offers ample off-road parking, enhancing both practicality and kerb appeal.

Making an Offer

“We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £60 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.”
