CASH BUYERS ONLY – APPROXIMATELY 50 YEARS REMAINING ON THE LEASE – TWO-BEDROOM APARTMENT WITH GARAGE – REFURBISHMENT OPPORTUNITY
Situated along the well-established London Road in Leicester, this two-bedroom apartment presents an excellent opportunity for CASH BUYERS looking to modernise a property to their own taste and requirements. Offering generously proportioned accommodation, a separate kitchen, family bathroom, useful built-in storage and the added benefit of a garage, the apartment provides considerable potential for improvement.
IMPORTANT LEASE INFORMATION: The property is being marketed to CASH BUYERS ONLY due to the short remaining lease term of approximately 50 years. Prospective purchasers should be aware of this when considering the property and are advised to seek independent legal advice regarding the lease and any potential extension. We not currently have full service charge details but believe it it be in the region of £300 per quarter including ground rent. WE ABSOLUTE ADVISE ON THIS FIGURE BEING CONFIRMED BY A SOLICITOR BEFORE PROCEEDING AND DO NOT IN ANY WAY CONFIRM THIS FIGURE TO BE 100% ACCURATE
The property forms part of Carlton Court, an established residential development approached via a driveway bordered by mature trees and greenery. The surrounding landscaping creates a pleasant approach to the building, while its position along London Road offers convenient access to Leicester's many amenities and transport connections.
Internally, the accommodation is arranged around a central hallway, providing independent access to the principal rooms. The layout is particularly practical, with the living accommodation and bedrooms positioned separately.
The main reception room is a generously proportioned space, offering ample room for comfortable seating and additional furnishings. A large window allows natural light to enter the room, creating a bright setting with plenty of potential to become an attractive living area. Although the room would benefit from redecoration and updating, its proportions provide an excellent foundation for creating a comfortable and welcoming space.
The separate kitchen is fitted with a range of light wood-effect wall and base units, complemented by contrasting dark work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. A window above the sink provides natural light, while the arrangement of the units offers practical preparation and storage space. The kitchen would benefit from refurbishment, presenting an opportunity for a purchaser to introduce their preferred finishes and fittings.
Both bedrooms are well proportioned and provide flexible accommodation. The principal bedroom offers generous floor space, making it suitable for a double bedroom arrangement with additional storage. The second bedroom is also a good size and could comfortably serve as another bedroom, guest room or dedicated home office. Both rooms benefit from windows providing natural light and offer excellent scope for cosmetic improvement.
The bathroom is fitted with a panelled bath with shower attachment and screen, wash hand basin and WC. Tiled walls, a heated towel rail and a frosted window complete the space. While functional in its current arrangement, the bathroom presents further potential for updating to suit the next owner's preferences.
A particularly useful feature of the apartment is the amount of built-in storage available. Several cupboards are positioned throughout the accommodation, including storage accessed from the hallway and principal bedroom, helping to maximise the usable living space.
GARAGE: The apartment also benefits from a garage, providing a valuable additional feature in this location. Whether used for parking a vehicle or additional storage, the garage offers further practicality and convenience.
The property requires a programme of cosmetic improvement and general refurbishment, with visible wear to the flooring and decorative finishes. However, its straightforward layout, generously sized rooms and desirable location provide an appealing opportunity for buyers looking to create a home or investment property tailored to their requirements.
London Road is a popular residential location offering convenient access to Leicester city centre, local shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and everyday services. The nearby Clarendon Park and Stoneygate areas provide additional independent shopping and dining opportunities, while Victoria Park and the University of Leicester are within the wider surrounding area.
The location also benefits from public transport connections along London Road, with Leicester railway station and the city centre accessible via local transport.
Overall, this two-bedroom apartment represents an opportunity for CASH PURCHASERS willing to undertake refurbishment and consider the implications of the short lease. With its generous reception room, two good-sized bedrooms, separate kitchen, bathroom, extensive storage and garage, the property offers a practical foundation for improvement in a convenient Leicester location.
PLEASE NOTE: CASH BUYERS ONLY. THE PROPERTY HAS APPROXIMATELY 50 YEARS REMAINING ON THE LEASE. Buyers should satisfy themselves regarding the exact lease term, associated costs and any lease extension options through their legal representative before committing to a purchase.
