Property Summary

We’re delighted to offer for sale this unique opportunity to purchase a well-proportioned bungalow that requires modernisation, ideal for creating your own family home.

Full Details

The property occupies a corner position with large garden space and a garage, within a popular residential road in the lovely village of Oadby. There is currently a large living space and kitchen, two good-sized bedrooms and a bathroom, while outside the garden extends on three sides of the property, allowing ample space for an extension (subject to planning permission). In addition, there is a detached single garage adjacent to the property and off-road parking for two cars.

This exciting property is approached via a paved front drive and path to the part-glazed door that opens into a handy porch while a further door leads you into the large living room. Overlooking the front garden, a big picture window lets plenty of light flood the room and there is a fireplace on a tiled hearth with a brick surround and mantel above.

A central hallway gives access to the double-aspect kitchen with a single drainer sink with twin taps below the window, fitted wall and base units with work surfaces above, and space for a washing machine as well as a fridge freezer. From the kitchen is a part-glazed door leading out to the side access.

Off the hall are the two bedrooms, both of which overlook the rear garden and have large picture windows. The part-tiled family bathroom has a light blue suite comprising a panelled bath with twin taps and a shower over, a low-level WC and a pedestal wash hand basin also with twin taps.

A particular feature of this superb opportunity to create your forever home is its gardens. Situated on a corner plot, the gardens extend around three sides of the property and are mainly laid to lawn. At the front, a paved driveway provides off-road parking for two cars and leads to the garage with an up-and-over door. Between the garage and the house, there is a paved path and wrought iron gate that gives access to side access and rear garden.

To the left of the driveway, the garden extends around the property to the rear and is bordered by wood panel fencing and mature hedges. Paved pathways run on both sides of the lawn and down the centre.

This spacious bungalow with no onward chain and in need of modernisation sits on the outskirts of Oadby village, popular with families. It is to a range of local shops as well as Uplands Park, the Nature Reserve and Oval Park training ground. There is a variety of excellent local public houses and restaurants, including The Black Dog, Domino’s Pizza, the Oadby Owl and Kake Temptations, while the Asda Superstore is just a short distance away. Severn Surgery is nearby and an array of high-quality primary and secondary schools within walking distance, such as Woodland Grange Primary School and The Beauchamp College, while Leicester Grammar and Leicester High are within a 15-minute drive.

Leicester and De Montfort universities, Leicester General Hospital, and Leicester Royal Infirmary are all within easy reach. There is good access to a local communication network with well-stocked convenience stores in nearby Allandale Road and major shopping facilities in central Oadby and Leicester City Centre. The city enjoys good communication links with the mainline railway station offering services in all directions including London St. Pancras. An outer and inner ring road system ensures the city has good road links with access to the M1 and M69 motorways.
