Description

This extended two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, situated in the popular residential area of South Wigston. Offered to the market with no upward chain, it represents a fantastic opportunity for those seeking single-storey living with the added benefit of generous internal proportions.

The property has been thoughtfully extended to the rear, creating a substantial kitchen and a separate dining/family room that overlooks the garden. The accommodation comprises an entrance lobby and hall with ample storage, a bright sitting room with a feature bay window, two bedrooms (with the master benefitting from fitted wardrobes), and a modern shower room with a double cubicle. While the property would benefit from a degree of cosmetic updating, it has been well-maintained and offers a versatile footprint that can be easily adapted to suit the new owner's needs.
