David Hobbs Rise, Market Harborough, Leicestershire, LE16

This very well presented two double bedroom semi-detached home occupies a plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position on the ever popular Ashley Way estate. Built by Charles Church in 2013 this part of the estate was a later addition and is therefore on the periphery of the main Ashley Way development that was largely built during the 1990s. The home is well positioned for a wide range of local amenities, including a very recently opened Aldi supermarket, Market Harborough train station and the highly regarded Meadowdale Primary School. Market Harborough's main High Street is a pleasant 10-15 minute walk away, which has a wide selection, of shops, services, public houses, restaurants and coffee shops. For those who commute, the nearby A6 takes you either toward Leicester, in one direction and toward the A14 and Kettering in the other. London is less than an hour away by train with Corby and Northampton also within easy reach. For those that work from home the second bedroom does provide scope to be used as an office.

Access to the home is via a composite front door that opens to a welcoming entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor landing, and doors through to the lounge, kitchen and a useful ground floor WC and wash hand basin.

The kitchen is situated toward the front of the home and includes a modern range of soft-close base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless-steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a gas hob with extractor over and built-in oven underneath. In addition, there is space for a tall freestanding fridge/freezer and space and plumbing for a washing machine. There is undercounter space for an additional appliance if desired.

The lounge is spacious with ample room for sofas and freestanding storage and display furniture. It could also accommodate a small table and chairs. A set of French patio doors open to the garden and fill the room with plenty of natural light. The lounge also benefits from a full height storage cupboard.

To the first floor, the current owners use the back bedroom as their principal bedroom. However, both bedrooms are double rooms and either could be used as the main bedroom depending on preference. The principal bedroom benefits from a built-in double wardrobe and has a window overlooking the garden. The second bedroom also enjoys a built-in storage cupboard/wardrobe with two windows to the front elevation. If not required as a bedroom day-to-day the second bedroom could be utilised as a dressing room, games room or office space if required.

Between the bedrooms is a contemporary bathroom that comprises a three-piece white suite to include a bath, with shower over, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

To the side of the home, a driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles. There is secure gated side access into the rear garden.

At the rear, is a relatively low maintenance garden with a lawn positioned between a timber decked seating area at the top of the garden and a paved patio area closer to the property. The lawn than has shingle and slate piece borders ideal for standing potted plants to add a splash of colour and structure. The garden also offers access to a handy timber-built storage shed.

This is a superb home ideally suited to first-time buyers, professional couples and those potentially looking to downsize whilst retaining easy access to local amenities. Internal viewing is highly recommended.




The town of Market Harborough lies on the Leicestershire and Northamptonshire border. Its position means it is a fantastic location for many commuters travelling in a variety of directions. London is less than an hour away on the train and Leicester is only a thirty-minute drive away. The thriving High Street has a superb range of shops and restaurants and the local schools are very highly regarded. In addition, there are a number of local places of interest in the vicinity.
