This very well presented two double bedroom end townhouse occupies an attractive plot within a sought after Cul-de-Sac position. The home has been significantly improved by the current owners during their time there resulting in a property with wide ranging appeal but is perhaps best suited to first time buyers, young professionals and those considering a downsize. The property is conveniently located for a host of local amenities including the Beaumont Shopping Centre which has a wide selection of shops, services and eateries. Leisure and medical centres are also in close proximity. For commuters, there are excellent road links into the city of Leicester and the nearby A46 connects with the M1.
The accommodation itself includes an entrance porch which helps keep the heat inside during the colder winter months. A further door from the porch opens to the home's main living room. The living room is filled with plenty of natural light due to a window to the front elevation. The room is generous and can be configures in a variety of ways. The dominant feature of the room is a magnificent spiral staircase that rises to the first floor landing.
A door from the living room leads into the kitchen. The kitchen has a modern range of base and wall mounted fitted units, with newly wrapped roll-edge work surfaces and a one and a half bowl stainless-stell sink and drainer. There is an integral gas hob with extractor hood over and built-in electric oven underneath. There is ample space for a freestanding fridge freezer. Plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer.
The home also benefits from the addition of a large brick base conservatory which provides a versatile extra space and is plumbed into the central heating system making the room useable all year round. The conservatory could accommodate a dining table and chairs, it could also be used as a workspace and the current owners have the room set up as a play area.
To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double room with a window to the front elevation and plenty of space for a range of freestanding wardrobes and drawers.
The second bedroom is only very slightly smaller than the main bedroom and enjoys views over the garden to the rear. The room also has a built-in airing cupboard.
Between the two bedrooms is a family bathroom, which again has been updated and comprises a three piece white suite to include a bath with a panel that can be opened creating an under the bath storage place. There is a low flush WC and wash hand basin that sits on top of a vanity unit.
To the front of the home there is a lawned front garden with a path running up to the front porch. A shingle driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles and there is secure gated access to the rear.
At the rear is an attractively presented garden that, again the current owners have improved. The sheds have been repositioned toward the back of the garden creating a larger tiled patio seating area that now wraps around to the side of the home and is ideal for relaxing in the sunshine and entertaining family and friends. There are steps up to a area of lawn which is surrounded by shingle borders ideal for standing potted plants. Two timber-built storage sheds provide extra storage space and the garden is enclosed by recently replaced tall timber panel fencing.
This charming home represents and superb opportunity for a number of potential buyers. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
Beaumont Leys is a suburb of Leicester situated toward the North of the city between Thurmaston and Anstey. There are excellent road links into the city which can be accessed via car or by regularly serviced bus routes. For those travelling or commuting further afield the A46 is in close proximity which connects to the nearby M1. There is reputable schooling for all age groups including Heatherbrook Primary Academy and Beaumont Leys School. In addition, the Beaumont Shopping Centre provides a wide range of familiar shops and eateries.
