Avenue Road Extension, Leicester, LE2

Situated on Avenue Road Extension, this charming period home offers a superb balance of character and modern living, having undergone an extensive programme of recent renovation and investment. The current owners have thoughtfully enhanced the property throughout, reconfiguring both the interior and exterior to maximise space while carefully retaining and celebrating original features such as high ceilings, picture rails, and a feature ceiling rose.

The ground floor in particular is a standout feature, now fully renovated to create a seamless and sociable living environment. The reception room flows effortlessly through to a generous dining area and into a newly fitted kitchen beyond, forming a well-considered open-plan layout. Large windows to both the front and rear elevations allow natural light to travel through the entire space, creating a bright and airy feel throughout the day. The continuity of hardwood flooring further enhances this sense of flow, while dual log burners introduce warmth and character, making the space equally suited to cosy evenings and entertaining. The open aspect to the rear draws the eye through to the garden, adding depth and an additional sense of openness.

Upstairs, the same level of care and attention is evident. Both double bedrooms have been thoughtfully upgraded, with built-in wardrobes installed to maximise space and practicality, while retaining the charm of original sash windows and strong natural light. The family bathroom has also been renovated to a high standard, offering a clean and contemporary finish in keeping with the rest of the home.

Overall, this is a property where significant recent improvements have been carried out with a clear focus on both design and functionality, resulting in a home that successfully blends period character with modern, practical living.
