Main Street, Evington Village, Leicester, LE5 6DN

This beautifully presented Victorian mid terrace lies at the heart of historic Evington Village and offers an exceptional standard of finish throughout. The house has been thoughtfully updated to provide stylish, contemporary living while remaining true to its original form, with high ceilings, deep skirtings, and fireplaces creating a calm, established atmosphere from the moment you step inside.

The layout flows with ease from the front sitting room, where a bold, modern palette meets period detail, through to the central dining space with open stairs and built-in alcove storage. This leads into a well-appointed kitchen, which is both smart and highly practical. Wall and base cabinets offer ample storage, while sleek worktops and white tiled splashbacks give a clean finish. At its heart is a classic Belfast sink, set below one of two large windows that bring in natural light from both aspects. The stained glass in the rear door provides a gentle nod to the building’s heritage and adds a subtle decorative touch.

Upstairs, two double bedrooms are served by a full width bathroom finished in striking monochrome tones. Metro tiling, geometric flooring and contrasting cabinetry create a dramatic but functional space, while the window over the bath frames a leafy view of the rear. The second floor provides a large and versatile additional room, currently arranged as a child’s bedroom but ideal as an office, hobby space, or quiet retreat. Under eaves storage and three rooflights make this a particularly practical and inviting upper level.

The rear garden has been carefully landscaped to offer something for every season. Immediately outside the kitchen is a raised timber deck—an ideal spot for a barbecue or outdoor dining—followed by a lush, lawned section that feels almost springy underfoot. Right at the end, framed by greenery and fencing, is a painted summerhouse with glazed double doors: perfect for use as a workspace, reading room or simply as a quiet escape from the main house.

Parking is available on street to the side, there is a shared access passage at the rear, used only for bins and garden maintenance, which has no impact on the overall privacy of this delightfully tucked-away outside space.
