Morleys Close, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This wonderfully designed three double bedroom townhouse occupies an attractive plot that is noticeably larger than the immediate neighbour. Offered in excellent decorative condition the home is situated within the sought after New Wigston Meadows estate and still has four years remaining on the NHBC warranty. The home is thoughtfully designed with a larger lounge and kitchen diner on the ground floor and a large principal suite on the second floor. This design differs from some on the estate which have a ground floor kitchen diner but a first floor lounge and two bedrooms on the top floor. This flow of the accommodation certainly works better with main reception room and kitchen diner both being on the same floor. The home is well positioned for a plethora of local amenities with supermarkets, homeware, smaller shops and eateries as well as leisure and medical centres all only a short drive or bus ride away. Commuters will find excellent road links into the city of Leicester, although there are plenty of options to create office space within the property for those who work from home.

Access to the home is via a composite front door which opens to an entrance area which provides cloakroom space and has a door that leads into a useful ground floor WC and wash hand basin. A further door opens to the lounge.

The lounge is spacious and smartly decorated. A bay window to the front elevation fills the room with plenty of natural light and there is ample room for an array of living room furniture. There is a door to a large under stairs storage cupboard and a door that opens to a lobby area which has the stairs rising to the first floor landing and provides access to the kitchen diner situated toward the rear of the property.

The kitchen diner is impressive and includes a contemporary range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with a high-gloss finish and roll-edge work surfaces. There is a stainless-steel sink and drainer and integral appliances that include a gas hob, with extractor over, built-in eye-level electric oven, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. In addition, there is also an integral washing machine. The dining area has space for a table and chairs with a set of French patio doors that open to the back garden. More light is provided with a further window to the rear elevation.

To the first floor, there are two double bedrooms, one that is situated toward the front of the home above the lounge and the other overlooking the rear garden. Although both double bedrooms, if one of them was not required as a bedroom day-to-day then one could be used as an office or even a dressing room. The two bedrooms share a family bathroom which comprises a three piece white suite to include a bath with shower over, low flush WC and wash hand basin.

A door on the first floor landing leads to the stairs that take you up to the second floor. However, there is a handy under stairs recess that does accommodate a small desk which is another office space option.

The second floor is dedicated to a large principal bedroom with en-suite. The room is a fantastic space with two skylight windows to the rear and a dormer style window to the front. The room also benefits from fitted wardrobes. The en-suite comprises a suite that includes a walk-in show cubicle, a low flush WC, meaning there are toilet facilities on every floor, and a wash hand basin.

A driveway to the side of the home provides ample off-road parking as well as direct car access to a detached single garage. The garage itself has light, power and an up and over door with a vaulted roof that offers useful extra storage. There is also secure gated access to the rear.

At the rear is a private and relatively low maintenance garden with a lawn and a path running down the side of the fence line that leads to a paved patio area which was done by the current owners since they have been there. An ideal spot the relax and enjoy a drink in the summer months and large enough to have a table and chairs to entertain family and friends.

This is a delightful and versatile family home that has wide ranging appeal. Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate all it has to offer.
