Description

This deceptively spacious two bedroom terrace property occupies a plot within walking distance of Wigston's main high street and the extensive range of shops and services available. Large supermarkets, a plethora of eateries as well as leisure and medical facilities are all in very close proximity. The property itself does require refurbishment and modernisation throughout and as a consequence will be of particularly interest for any buyer that enjoys taking a project on and making a property their own or those who look to add immediate value through renovation and then look to re-sell or rent the property to tenants. The plot is surprisingly generous and does offer the potential to be extended subject to local planning.

The accommodation itself includes a useful porch area which in turn leads through to a reception room situated toward the front of the home. There is a large window to the front elevation with the focal point of the room being an open fire set into a feature fireplace. In addition, there are two built-in display cabinets either side of the central chimney breast. A door then leads through to a where the stairs rise to the first floor and then past the stairs a door opens to a second reception room toward the rear.

The second reception room would probably be best served as a dining area given the kitchen sits open plan to this room via a wide archway. However, the reception rooms are interchangeable and could be used to suit a particular buyers’ preference. The dining room also benefits from a feature open fireplace. There is also access to an under stairs storage cupboard.

The kitchen is well proportioned and is a dual aspect space with windows to both side and rear elevations. Although, most buyers will look to replace the existing kitchen within a relatively short period of time it is certainly functional in the short term. There is a range of base units with roll-edge work surfaces and stainless steel sink and drainer. There is also ample room for all essential appliances including a cooker, fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine. A back door does provide access from the kitchen to the back rear garden.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a generous double room with high ceilings and two windows looking out to the front elevation. There is an extensive range of fitted wardrobes, drawers and dressing table. The second bedroom is a single room but does benefit from a built-in over stairs storage cupboard.

Finally, the bathroom which again is likely to be updated does currently comprise a three piece suite to include a bath, low flush WC and wash hand basin.

To the front of the home a low walled frontage separates the property from the pavement and there is secure covered gated side access from front to rear. At the rear is a good size and mature garden with a paved patio seating area and on which stands a greenhouse. There is then a lawn which is surrounded on three sides by heavily planted borders containing a variety of flora that provide privacy and seclusion.

This property has superb potential to become a fabulous home. The room dimensions are good as is the plot as a whole. It just requires a buyer to breathe new life into it and make it their own. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
