Pendene Road, Stoneygate, Leicester, LE2

This delightful property offers enviable scope for sympathetic redesign and modernisation, transforming the wealth of existing accommodation into a contemporary family home. Thanks to the convenience of its single storey and abundance of dual aspect rooms, this property feels bright, airy, and expansive.

An ornate, part glazed timber framed door grants access into the dining hall which doubles as the entrance hall and access corridor. The current accommodation comes in the form of an entrance hall with its striking terracotta floor tiling, the dining hall, a large living room, dual aspect kitchen with adjoining utility room, and shower room. The dining hall boasts an ornate ceiling rose and coving as well as double glazed doors into the garden. Double doors lead from the dining hall into the wonderful dual aspect living room which extends over 22 ft in length. Decorative coving adorns the walls and ceiling while a blue/grey marble fireplace with timber mantle over becomes the focal point of this welcoming room. The views from here are almost entirely leafy which amplifies the serenity this room provides. Elsewhere, the kitchen, with its warm toned flooring and complementing burnt orange tiled splashback, is fitted with a wide range of off white units with concealed handles. Appliances include a large gas hob and high level double oven. This home’s ample dimensions would allow for an open plan breakfast kitchen to be created, perhaps with bifolding doors flowing out into the wrap-around garden beyond.

The remaining portion of this magnificent residence is given over to the double bedrooms. The master bedroom, nestled to the far side and benefitting from a large bath ensuite, feels wonderfully private. The floor to ceiling mirrored wardrobes add to the brightness of the room while providing ample storage solutions. Of the three further bedrooms, two offer fitted wardrobes. A modern shower room, comprising a double walk-in shower, wash hand basin, and WC is shared by these bedrooms and guests alike.

Please note - owing to its inclusion in the Stoneygate Conservation Area, all improvements must be granted the appropriate permission.

This property’s external architecture is unique and intensifies the feeling of grandeur when entering the grounds. Gloriously leafy and therefore highly private, this home feels a world away from the suburban hustle and bustle found just minutes’ away. The large tarmac driveway offers parking for numerous vehicles while the double garage is accessed via the electric external door as well as an internal door leading off from the porch. The beautifully manicured wrap-around garden is mostly laid to lawn with an ample slabbed patio for outdoor furniture found to the rear. The property’s boundaries are defined by a mixture of timber fencing and well pruned evergreen hedging.
