Holbrook Road, South Knighton, Leicester, LE2 3LF

On the market for the first time in over fifty years, this characterful South Knighton home offers a rare chance to acquire a property that has clearly been loved, lived in and carefully maintained. The classic red-brick frontage with its bay window immediately creates a strong first impression, setting the tone for a house filled with original charm.

Inside, there are two well-defined reception rooms. The front reception room is bright and inviting, enhanced by the bay window, while the second reception room sits centrally within the house and provides a comfortable and versatile space for dining or everyday living. The kitchen is positioned to the rear and looks out over the garden, offering a practical and characterful environment with plenty of scope for future enhancement. Beyond the kitchen, additional areas including a study overlooking the garden and useful utility space add further flexibility and depth to the ground floor.

The bedroom living is arranged over the upper two floors. The first floor hosts three bedrooms, offering an excellent versatility, along with the family bathroom. The second floor is home to a further bedroom, ideal as a guest room or creative space. This vertical layout gives the home a sense of journey and individuality that is rarely found in newer properties.

To the rear, the garden is a true standout feature and one of the largest on the row. Deep, mature and full of established planting, it provides a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity, offering endless potential for outdoor living, entertaining or further landscaping.

This family home sits in the popular residential area of South Knighton, about a mile south of Leicester city centre. Local convenience stores, like Tesco Express and Sainsbury’s Local, are just a short distance away, as are a variety of other leisure amenities, restaurants, pubs and eateries, including, the botanical gardens, Goldhill Adventure Playground, McDonald’s, The Fairfield Inn, Delifrance II and Knighton Park.
