Chellaston Road, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This delightful two bedroom detached bungalow is offered in excellent decorative condition having been very well maintained and cared for by the current owner. Occupying an attractive plot within a sought after residential area the bungalow is conveniently located for a plethora of local amenities which are arguably within walking distance but certainly are only a short drive or bus ride away. Not only is the property well positioned for a variety of shops, services and eateries but medical and leisure centres are also in close proximity. The bungalow was formally a three bedroom home but the owners decided to compromise the third bedroom with a stud wall to create an office room and a separate WC to the main shower room. This change could easily be reversed if a third bedroom is required or preferred. Another addition to the bungalow is a conservatory which provides further reception space.

Access to the bungalow is a via a porch which, in turn, leads through to a generous and welcoming entrance hall which has doors through to all the rooms except for the conservatory.

The lounge diner is situated toward the rear of the bungalow and is well proportioned and can comfortably accommodate sofas, armchairs, a dining table as well as freestanding storage and display furniture. The main focal point of the room is a contemporary living flame gas fire that is inset into a central chimney breast. Sliding glazed doors open to the conservatory which is presented as an additional sitting room where views of the garden can be enjoyed.

Adjacent to the lounge diner is a smart refitted kitchen. The kitchen is filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a large bay window that overlooks the garden. There is a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a composite sink and drainer with a mixer tap. Integral appliances include a gas hob, with extractor hood over and built-in mid-level double electric oven. There is also under counter space for a fridge, freezer and space and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher. A back door from the kitchen leads to the side and rear garden.

The principal bedroom is the largest of the two bedrooms and has a window to the front elevation. A well-proportioned double room means there is plenty of space for freestanding wardrobes and drawers. The second bedroom is also situated toward the front of the bungalow and although currently presented as a single bedroom it can accommodate a double bed. The third bedroom was reconfigured by the owners by erecting a stud wall to separate what is now a useful office/study space and a second separate WC. This arrangement may suit many potential buyers but if a third bedroom is needed the stud wall could readily be removed and the room returned to its original configuration.

Finally, there is a modern refitted shower room which comprises a three-piece suite to include a large walk-in shower with fixed screen, low flush WC and a wash hand basin that is set onto a floating wall-mounted vanity unit.

To the front of the bungalow a block paved driveway provides ample off-road parking as well as direct car access to a detached single garage. The garage has light and power and if not needed for parking provides useful additional storage and utility space.

At the rear is a neatly tended and private garden with paved patio seating areas ideal for outdoor furniture and to entertain family and friends in the warmer months. A lawn is surround by mature, well-stocked planted borders that contain a variety of trees, shrubs and flowering plants. patio areas are surrounded by well stocked planted borders and beds containing a variety of shrubs and flowering plants. There is also a timber-built storage shed and a greenhouse. The garden is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the summer sun.

This bungalow is ideal for those looking to downsize or looking for accommodation on one level. This is a fine example and worthy of serious consideration. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
