What this property offers
About this property
Properties like this have their roots in the working courtyards of Victorian England, built to serve the larger houses that lined London Road. This one has long since found its own identity. What greets you through the gate is a courtyard that has been planted and shaped over many years, enclosed by whitewashed walls with mature palms, bamboo, Japanese acers and climbing plants that give it a calm, sheltered character.
A timber pergola sits over an outdoor dining area, a double garage occupies on corner of the plot, this is currently fitted out as a business. However, it still retains the vehicle inspection pit.
Inside, the ground floor opens into an entrance hall with a ground floor WC off to one side. The kitchen features navy blue fitted units running along two walls, a Belfast sink, gas hob and integrated appliances; natural light comes in from the courtyard-facing window.
Beyond sits a separate dining room and a generous lounge, the latter retaining its original cast-iron fireplace and opening directly onto the courtyard through glazed doors.
On the first floor, three well-proportioned double bedrooms are served by a large four piece family bathroom fitted with both a bath and a walk-in shower enclosure.
The loft presents a genuine opportunity. Subject to planning permission, there is scope to create further bedrooms.
London Road sits on the southern approach into Leicester city centre, well placed for access to Victoria Park, the university quarter and the local shops and restaurants along Queens Road and Allandale Road. Leicester train station provides direct services to London St Pancras in just over an hour.
