Description

Sam Cable of Taylors Estate Agency, Rothley is delighted to bring to the market this substantial four-bedroom bay-fronted Victorian terrace, offering approximately 1,737 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged across three floors, with wonderfully generous room proportions, original character and a layout offering an exceptional degree of versatility.

From the outside, the handsome Victorian façade gives you an idea of what lies beyond, but it is only once you step inside that you begin to appreciate the sheer amount of space this house has to offer.

There is something wonderfully honest about a Victorian home. High ceilings, large rooms, bay windows and original details give these properties a personality that is incredibly difficult to recreate, and 38 Fosse Road North has retained plenty of that charm.

Ground Floor
The ground floor begins with a traditional entrance foyer and hallway, leading into an impressive bay-fronted reception room measuring approximately 15'9" x 11'3". A genuinely substantial room, it offers all the proportions you would hope to find in a house of this period.

Beyond is a second reception room, again particularly generous at approximately 13'3" x 12'2", where original details including traditional picture rails add to the character of the space.

Continue towards the rear and you'll find the fitted kitchen, extending to approximately 21'3" in length, providing plenty of workspace and storage. A ground-floor bathroom with shower, W.C. and wash hand basin completes the internal accommodation on this level.

First Floor
Head upstairs and the versatility of this house really begins to reveal itself.

Occupying the front of the first floor is a superb bay-fronted room measuring approximately 15'9" x 15'6". Currently lending itself beautifully as a family lounge, its size and proportions mean it could equally make a fantastic principal bedroom. Character features and the bay window give the room a wonderful sense of presence.

Centrally positioned is a substantial second fitted kitchen measuring approximately 12'3" x 12'2", finished with timeless shaker-style cabinetry and providing enough room for dining.

To the rear is a particularly attractive bathroom, generously sized at approximately 11'10" x 8'7" and featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, W.C. and wash hand basin. Tastefully designed and decorated, it feels entirely in keeping with the character of the property.

Second Floor
The sense of space continues onto the second floor, where you'll find two further excellent double bedrooms.

Both are particularly impressive in size, measuring approximately 15'5" x 12'1" and 15'6" x 12'10" respectively. These are proper double bedrooms, with the sort of proportions increasingly difficult to find in more modern homes.

Outside
Step outside and you'll discover a wonderfully quiet rear courtyard garden, creating a surprisingly peaceful retreat from the city surroundings.

Low maintenance and wonderfully private in feel, there is space to sit outside with a morning coffee, enjoy an evening drink or simply escape for a little while.

A covered patio area measuring approximately 9'0" x 8'0" adds another dimension, providing a sheltered outdoor space that can be enjoyed throughout more of the year. Beyond this is a useful separate storage area.

A Home With Possibilities
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of 38 Fosse Road North is just how adaptable it is.

With approximately 1,737 sq. ft. across three floors, two kitchens, two bathrooms and a collection of unusually generous rooms, there is considerable flexibility for its next owner to decide how the house should work for them.

Whether you're drawn to the character, the sheer amount of accommodation or the possibilities presented by the layout, this is a home that really does need to be walked through to appreciate its scale.

Location
Fosse Road North is brilliantly positioned for anyone wanting the convenience of city living while still having plenty on the doorstep. Everyday amenities, independent shops, cafés and restaurants can all be found nearby, while Leicester city centre is within easy reach for a wider choice of shopping, dining and entertainment.

The location is also particularly convenient for commuters, with excellent road links providing straightforward access across Leicester and towards the wider motorway network. Leicester Railway Station provides direct services to London St Pancras, Birmingham and Nottingham, making the property well placed for those travelling further afield.

For those wanting some greenery, Abbey Park is also within easy reach, offering riverside walks, open parkland and an attractive escape from the city.

Substantial, characterful and far larger than you might initially expect, 38 Fosse Road North offers the proportions of a Victorian home at its best — with approximately 1,737 sq. ft. of space and a layout ready to be shaped around its next chapter.
