Secure building-entry systems add to the comfortable and safe environment at The Wheatsheaf Works and the apartment also benefits from access to a unique communal courtyard with well-maintained planters, decked flooring and plenty of seating options; providing an attractive, comfortable retreat from busy city life and a pleasant area to relax outdoors.

The Wheatsheaf Works development is ideally situated for easy access to local amenities, transport links, and the vibrant city centre, making it perfect for those seeking a dynamic urban lifestyle with the added bonus of a comfortable safe communal space. Whether you are looking for a stylish, safe and comfortable First Time Home or a Smart Buy-to-Let opportunity (with a potential gross yield of 8%), this property combines the best of contemporary living within the character and charm of a unique historic building in Leicester.
