Lansdowne Grove, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This two bedroom terrace townhouse occupies a plot within a sought after residential area and within walking distance of a wide selection of local amenities. Offered to the market with no upward chain the home has been well maintained but would offer any potential buyer the opportunity to modernise and add further value to the property. The home is conveniently located for a large supermarket, a plethora of smaller shops, services and eateries and is also well placed for Wigston’s leisure and medical centres. For those who commute, there are excellent road links into the city of Leicester and to Junction 21 of the M1/M69. South Wigston train station is also close by for those travelling on rail. The home does require modernisation but will hold appeal for first time buyers with contacts to the trades or handy DIYers themselves. Buy-to-let investors and those developers who look to add immediate value to a home should also give this property serious consideration.

Access to the home is via a main front door that opens to a small entrance area with stairs rising to the first floor landing a door that opens to a lounge.

The lounge is well-proportioned and filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a large bay window to the front elevation. There is room for a range of living room furniture and a door that leads through to a kitchen diner.

The kitchen diner is again a generous room which would allow for a far more significant range of storage units than there are currently. The kitchen as seen has a base unit with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless-steel sink and drainer. There is space for a freestanding cooker and fridge/freezer as well as plumbing for a washing machine. Further storage is provided by a built-in pantry cupboard and under stairs storage cupboard. There is a window that overlooks the garden to the rear and a back door provides access.

To the first floor, there are two double bedrooms either of which could be used as the principal bedroom depending on preference. The slightly larger of the two is situated toward the rear of the property an enjoys views of the garden. There is ample room for a range of freestanding wardrobes and drawers.

Finally, on the first floor, there is a bathroom that comprises a three-piece suite to include a bath, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin. There is also an airing cupboard.

To the front, the home is set back from the road and given some privacy by a hedge that means passers by cannot gaze into the front window. At the rear is a relatively low maintenance garden with a paved patio seating area and a lawn that is bisected by a path running toward the back of the garden. There is than access to two further storage places. A store immediately to the rear and another down the side passage.
