Turville Close, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This much loved and very well maintained two bedroom semi-detached home occupies an attractive plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position on the popular Wigston Harcourt estate. Offered with no upward chain the rear garden backs onto green space containing a drainage channel and spillways for the estate and is therefore protected and cannot be built on. The home is well presented and the gardens neatly tended and will appeal to first time buyers although those looking to downsize should also be very interested. The property is well placed for a plethora of local amenities with supermarkets, a range of shops and eateries, medical and leisure centres all a short drive or bus ride away. With the Harcourt estate being on the periphery of Wigston, open countryside and the Grand Union Canal towpath is also close by for dog walkers and runners.

Access to the home is via a front door that opens to an entrance area with hanging space for coats. Doors form the hall lead through to the kitchen and lounge diner.

The kitchen is situated toward the front of the home and includes a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a composite sink and drainer. There is space for a freestanding cooker, fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washer dryer.

The lounge diner is spacious and filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a set of French patio doors that open to the garden. A mirrored wall opposite reflects the light and further creates the illusion of even more space. The main focal point of the room is a feature fireplace in which sits a flame effect electric fire. The room provides space for sofas, armchairs and can also accommodate a table and chairs for dining. A flight of stairs rises from the lounge to the first floor landing.

The first floor comprises of two bedrooms and a bathroom. The principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double and enjoys views over the rear garden and benefits from an extensive range of fitted wardrobes and overhead storage. A built-in over stairs cupboard gives even more storage space. The second bedroom is a single but also has a built-in wardrobe. If the second bedroom was not required for its intended purpose it could easily be set up as a home office or a dressing room.

The bedrooms are serviced by a modern refitted bathroom which includes a bath with shower over, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

Its position within the Cul-de-Sac means the property is set well back from the street. A long driveway provides ample off-road parking and adjacent to the driveway is a lawn which serves to enhance the home's already pleasing kerb appeal. A set of double timber gates provide secure side access to the rear.

At the rear is a neatly presented garden with paved patio seating area, a lawn and a well-stocked planted border that contains a variety of shrubs and plants. The garden also has a summer house and timber-built shed. The garden backs out to green open space and is therefore private and creates a wonderful feeling of space around the home.

This lovely property gives a homely feel as soon as you enter the front door. Internal viewing is essential to truly appreciate its position, the plot and the quality of presentation.
