Deveron Drive, Leicester, LE19

Some homes are simply easy to imagine yourself living in and this beautifully upgraded Davidson-built home in New Lubbesthorpe is exactly that.

Set tucked away in a quiet and friendly cul-de-sac, with open views towards neighbouring farmland, this is a home that offers far more than just attractive accommodation. It has been carefully improved by the current owners to create a comfortable, low-maintenance and energy-efficient home that works brilliantly for modern family life.

From the outside, the position immediately stands out. You are in a secluded cul-de-sac setting, surrounded by other family homes, with a genuine neighbourhood feel. The owners describe it as the kind of place where children play outside on scooters and bikes while the adults catch up, quiet, safe and community-minded, yet still close to everyday essentials including the school, doctors surgery, bus stop, Sainsbury’s Express, green spaces, ponds, playgrounds and local community events.

Step inside and the finish feels clean, considered and move-in ready. The entrance hall leads through to a bright dual-aspect lounge with Amtico flooring and French doors opening directly onto the garden. It is a lovely everyday living space, with a comfortable feel and a strong connection to the outside.

The kitchen has been upgraded and gives the home a more premium edge, with contemporary units, integrated appliances, an upgraded stove and a central island/breakfast bar area that makes it a practical and sociable space for busy mornings, family life or entertaining. There is also a separate utility room, keeping the day-to-day clutter nicely tucked away, along with a downstairs WC.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three proper full-sized bedrooms, not two bedrooms and a box room pretending to be a third. Each bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, giving excellent built-in storage and helping to keep the rooms neat and usable. The main bedroom also has its own en-suite shower room, with one of the owners’ favourite upgrades being the rainfall-style shower, plumbed directly from the boiler rather than relying on an electric shower. A well-presented family bathroom completes the first floor.

The home has also been designed with comfort in mind. Shutters have been fitted to the windows, giving the property a smart, sophisticated look while also helping with insulation keeping the house warmer in winter and cooler in summer. The loft has also been boarded and fitted with a loft ladder, providing useful additional storage.

One of the biggest standout features is the energy setup. The property benefits from solar panels, battery storage and two EV charging points on the driveway. The owners have advised that their monthly energy costs have been exceptionally low, even while charging two electric vehicles. For buyers who are conscious of running costs, future-proofing and everyday efficiency, this is a major advantage.

Outside, the rear garden has been professionally landscaped to create a smart, low-maintenance space that works for both children and adults. There is a porcelain tiled patio, easy-care lawn, covered seating area, brick side walls helping to shelter the garden from wind, and a children’s play area. It is the kind of garden that feels usable, practical and ready to enjoy without needing a long list of jobs.

At the rear of the garden is a substantial outdoor office/summer house with lighting, power and WiFi reach, making it ideal for working from home, running a business, hobbies, gaming, or simply creating a separate space away from the main house. With more buyers now looking for flexible home-working space, this adds real value to the overall package.

To the front and side, there is driveway parking, two EV charge points, a garage, automatic front bollard lighting and a Yale alarm system, adding further practicality and peace of mind.

This is an ideal home for a young family, professional couple, first-time family buyer or even someone looking to downsize into something modern, efficient and easy to maintain. It is quiet, comfortable, energy-conscious and beautifully presented with very little for the next owner to do other than move in and enjoy it.

The owners have also advised that they may be willing to part with a number of existing furniture items, which could make the move even easier for the right buyer.
