Cheshire Drive, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This beautifully presented and much loved three bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a superb corner plot that includes a detached double garage, a feature most of the neighbouring semi-detached houses does not possess. This feature may be of particular interest to those who perhaps run a pet or beauty business or mechanic enthusiasts. The plot would also allow scope for extension, subject to local planning. The home is conveniently located for a plethora of amenities both in Wigston Magna and in South Wigston. Supermarkets, smaller shops and services, a range of eateries as well as leisure and medical centres are all only a short drive or regularly serviced bus ride away. Commuters will find excellent road links into the city and toward Fosse Park and Junction 21 of the M1/M69. The home itself has been very well looked after and improved by the current owners including the addition of a conservatory and useful ground floor WC.

Access to the home is via a sliding patio door that opens to a porch and then through a front door which leads into an entrance hall. The hallway has stairs rising to the first floor landing, an under stairs storage cupboard and doors through to the lounge diner and kitchen.

The lounge diner is a generous room that is filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a large bay window to the front elevation. The room's main feature is an electric fire set into a feature fireplace. The room has ample space for a range of living room furniture, and the dining area can comfortably accommodate a table and chairs. A set of sliding patio doors open from the dining area into a conservatory.

The conservatory is a very functional space all year round with the owners having installed underfloor heating. The current owners have the conservatory set up as a second sitting or garden room providing extra reception space. However, the space could be used in a variety of ways, including a playroom for younger ones, a working space without having to compromise one of the bedrooms or even a play to exercise. Off the conservatory a ground floor WC has been added, which also has space and plumbing for a washer dryer.

Also, on the ground floor is a refitted kitchen which includes a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless-steel sink and drainer. There is an integral ceramic hob, with extractor over and built-in oven underneath. In addition, there is under counter space for both a fridge and freezer. The kitchen is a dual aspect room with windows to both side and rear elevations. A back door from the kitchen opens to the garden at the side of the home.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is the largest of three bedrooms and has a window to the front elevation and benefits from a wall of fitted wardrobes with sliding mirrored doors. The second bedroom is also a double room which overlooks the garden to the rear. Again, the room offers plenty of space for freestanding wardrobes and drawers. The third bedroom, although a single room, is still well-proportioned and provides the versatility to be used as a dressing room or office space if not required as a bedroom day-to-day. The third bedroom also has a built-in over stairs storage cupboard.

Finally. on the first floor is a refitted shower room comprising a three-piece white to include a large walk-in shower with fixed screen, low flush WC and wall-mounted wash hand basin.

To the outside, because the home occupies the corner plot there are three distinct areas garden areas, one to the front, a side garden and a garden to the rear. The is set well back from the pavement and road via a low walled frontage behind which is a lawn with a single tree that enhances the home's kerb appeal. There is secure gated side access to a further garden space with a lawn, a paved patio seating area, a raised border, greenhouse and steps up to the driveway.

The driveway provides off-road parking for at least two vehicles side-by-side as well as direct car access to the double garage. The double garage itself has light and power with two remote operated electric roller main doors.

The rear garden also has a lawn and a second patio seating area. The rear garden also accommodates a large timber-built storage shed.

This is a wonderful family home that will suit a wide range of potential buyers with families of varying ages and sizes. Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate both the quality of presentation and the space it offers.
