This property is offered for sale through the Modern Method of Auction which is operated by iamsold Limited.
This two double bedroom terrace townhouse occupies a plot in one of the wider Cul-de-Sac locations along Lansdowne Grove. The home does benefit from a driveway that provides off-road parking which can be a problem for many of the similar properties within the immediate area. The home is conveniently located for a wide range of local amenities with large supermarkets and a plethora of smaller shops and eateries all within walking distance. Wigston's leisure and medical centres are also close by. The accommodation itself does require modernisation and refurbishment throughout but would offer any buyer a huge opportunity to add significant value post purchase.
The accommodation itself includes a small entrance area with stairs that rise to the first floor landing and a door that opens to the lounge.
The lounge is generous and filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a window to the front elevation. There is an older style gas fire set onto a fireplace but many buyers may well look to modernise this feature or knock the fireplace out entirely. A door from the lounge opens to a spacious kitchen diner.
The kitchen is likely to be updated by most purchasers but does currently accommodate a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless steel sink and drainer. There is space for a cooker and fridge/freezer as well as plumbing for a washing machine. There are two useful storage areas, one being an under stairs cupboard whilst the other is a pantry cupboard. A door from the kitchen leads out to the garden.
To the first floor, there is an especially large principal bedroom that extends over the side access that is shared with the immediate neighbour. There are two windows to the front elevation and an over stairs cupboard. There is plenty of additional space for an extensive range of freestanding wardrobes and drawers.
The second bedroom is also a double room and overlooks the garden to the rear.
Finally, on the first floor, there is a bathroom which comprises a three piece suite to include a bath, low flush WC and wash hand basin. Like the kitchen, however, the bathroom does require renovation.
To the front of the home a hard standing driveway provides off-road parking for two vehicles and at the rear is a garden that will need some taming but could be made into a delightful spot to relax and enjoy a drink or entertain friends. Accessed from the garden is a ground floor WC and further storage cupboard.
Although, this home certainly requires some work, it would offer any buyer fantastic potential. First time buyers who are handy and have connections with the trades, professional developers and buy-to-let landlords should all give this opportunity serious consideration.
