Melton Avenue, Rushey Mead, Leicester

TWO BEDROOMS - CHARACTER PROPERTY - AMAZINGLY MAINTAINED - SEMI DETACHED - DRIVEWAY ***

Seths Estate Agents are pleased to bring to market this characterful two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow located on Melton Avenue in the popular residential area of Rushey Mead, Leicester. Full of charm and character, this unique property has been lovingly maintained and largely preserved in its original character, featuring exposed beams, a wood-burning fireplace, and a wealth of original features throughout. The property further benefits from parking for one vehicle, a large garden, a fully boarded loft, and potential to extend, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

To the rear, the property features a beautifully characterful garden finished with stone slabbing, a gravel area with a water feature, and is enclosed by a combination of wooden fencing, hedgerows, and a metal fence to the rear — a truly unique and tranquil outdoor space. A slabbed path with a wooden gate provides access to the front.

Internally, the property is full of surprises, comprising an entrance porch, entrance hall, a generous lounge with exposed beams and a wood-burning fireplace, a study with double doors opening directly onto the rear garden, an open-plan dining area and kitchen — which will include a range burner with plate warmer and double oven — a utility area, two bedrooms, and a family bathroom. The fully boarded loft with a drop-down ladder and double glazed window provides excellent additional storage space. Notably, the property benefits from asphalt flooring as a solid base throughout, with all finished floor coverings laid directly on top — providing exceptional durability and stability underfoot, a feature rarely found in a residential property of this type.
