Hobill Close, Leicester Forest East, LE3

A three-bedroom semi-detached home in Leicester Forest East, offering a great opportunity for a first-time buyer, young family or anyone looking for a property they can modernise and put their own stamp on.

Hobill Close is a home with plenty of potential. It does require some updating and general TLC, but it is very liveable as it stands, making it ideal for someone who wants to move in and improve over time rather than take on a full renovation from day one.

As you arrive, you enter through a useful entrance porch, which is a great everyday space for coats, shoes, pushchairs or general storage before stepping through into the main hallway. From here, stairs rise to the first floor and there is access into the main living areas and kitchen.

The lounge sits to the front of the home and has a window overlooking the front, along with a gas fire set into the chimney breast. From the lounge, the room steps up into the dining area, where the floor level has been raised and finished with wooden floorboards. This creates a separate dining space with sliding patio doors leading out to the rear garden.

An archway leads through into the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of wall and base units, worktop space, sink, gas hob and built-in cooker. There is also a tiled floor, useful understairs storage and a door leading through to the garage.

Upstairs, the property has three bedrooms. The main bedroom sits to the rear of the home and is a double room with fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom is also a double, positioned to the front, and includes fitted wardrobes with mirrored sliding doors. Bedroom three also sits to the front and has fitted storage, making it suitable as a single bedroom, nursery or home office.

The bedrooms are served by the main bathroom, which includes a toilet, wash hand basin, bath, tiled walls and an electric shower over the bath.

Outside, the rear garden has a patio area and lawn, with fenced boundaries. One of the nice benefits of the garden is that the homes behind are bungalows, meaning the rear aspect feels more private and is not heavily overlooked.

Overall, this is a solid home in Leicester Forest East with plenty of potential. It may need some modernising, but for the right buyer, it offers a fantastic chance to create a home that suits their own style, in a popular and well-established location.
