Tythorn Drive, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This remarkable home is offered with no upward chain and provides spacious and versatile living accommodation ideally suited to families of varying numbers and age ranges. Substantially extended by the current owner, the home has witnessed a comprehensive program of refurbishment and modernisation. This includes a full re-wire, stunning refitted kitchen and shower rooms and redecoration throughout. The home is well placed for a wide variety of local amenities and there are excellent road links for commuters into the city of Leicester and a variety of smaller centres around the nearby ring road. Fosse Park and Junction 21 of the M1/M69 are also conveniently located. Those that work from home will find several rooms that could be used as office or study space.

Access to the home is impressive with composite, opaque glazed panel double doors opening to an impressive entrance hall with a beautiful marble effect tiled floor that runs along the hallway all the way to the kitchen situated toward the rear of the home.

Either side of the entrance hall, are a lounge and two ground floor double bedrooms. The lounge is situated to the front of the home and benefits from a large bay window to the front elevation. Bedroom Four is on the other side of the entrance hall and was created through the conversion of the original garage. This versatile room could be used as a play room for children, a large office space or second sitting room. Bedroom Five is situated behind the lounge and is part of what is an incredible full width rear extension. This room has the same flexibility as Bedroom Four and being adjacent to the kitchen could also be used as a formal dining room.

If the ground floor bedrooms are required as bedrooms, perhaps to accommodate extended family or older relatives, they are serviced by an opulent, fully tiled, ground floor shower room with large walk-in shower, low flush WC and wall mounted wash hand basin and vanity unit.

The feature space of the ground floor is the magnificent kitchen which has bi-fold doors that open to the garden and an island. There are an extensive range of base and wall-mounted fitted units, roll-edge work surfaces and stainless-steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a five-ring gas hob, built-in eye-level double oven and dishwasher. A pantry style storage unit accommodates an American style fridge/freezer and there is space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The kitchen area also enjoys underfloor heating.

The layout of the first floor remains in the style of the original property with two double bedrooms, the front one with the bay window and a second double bedroom that overlooks the garden to the rear. There is then a third box room, which again could be used as an office or dressing room, if not required as a bedroom day-to-day. These bedrooms benefit from refitted shower room.

The shower room is in keeping with the ground floor but has a darker colour scheme. Again, with fully tiled floor and walls there is another walk-in shower, low flush WC and a floating wash hand basin and vanity unit.

To the front of the home a pressed concrete driveway provides ample off-road parking. At the rear is a relatively low maintenance garden with patio seating area with the remaining area covered with newly turfed lawn.

This really is a stylish modern home with wide ranging appeal. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
