Description

FULL OF CHARM & CHARACTER - This loving family home is sure to tick all your desired boxes. Originally a four-bedroom detached this three-bedroom property is generously sized throughout. Boastings a large front and rear garden and four reception rooms. The accommodation itself includes an entrance porch, which is accessed from the side of the home. It leads into an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and doors on either side of the hallway to both reception rooms and a utility room. The largest of the reception rooms is a living room situated toward the front of the home. This is a dual-aspect room with a bay window to the front elevation and a further window to the side. In addition, there is a wall-mounted contemporary electric fire. The other reception room is a more intimate sitting room with the focal point of the space being a wood-burning stove set into an exposed brick fireplace. An open archway leads through to a stunning kitchen diner. The kitchen diner was moved and refitted by the current owners to include an extensive range of shaker-style base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces including a small island. There is a one-and-a-half bowl porcelain sink drainer, integral gas hob, and built-in electric oven and microwave. There is ample room for an American-style fridge freezer and plumbing for a dishwasher. In the dining area there is room for a large table and chairs and a set of French patio doors open to the garden. The kitchen diner also benefits from underfloor heating. A door from the kitchen leads into a versatile office space. Where the kitchen used to be is now a separate utility room. Again, there is a range of base and wall-mounted units and a stainless steel sink drainer. Under the counter, there is space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. To the first floor the principal bedroom is a fantastic dual-aspect room with high ceilings and easily accommodating a super king-size bed. The room also benefits from built-in wardrobe/storage space. The second bedroom is also a double room and although smaller than the main bedroom is serviced by its own en-suite, which comprises a fabulous jacuzzi bath and wash hand basin. The third bedroom overlooks the garden and has its own dressing area. Finally, there is a wonderful refitted shower room which has a large walk-in shower, low flush WC and wash hand basin that sits on top of a storage unit. Like the kitchen downstairs this room also has underfloor heating. To the front of the home there is a huge driveway that is guarded by an electric and remote operated gate. The driveway provides off-road parking for numerous vehicles and is certainly generous enough to house a caravan or motorhome if needed. The driveway runs down the side of the home and gives access to a carport and a detached garage/workshop beyond. On the other side of the property there is further access to the rear and there is an outside WC, useful for gardeners and barbeques alike. At the rear is a very attractive and well tended garden with paved patio seating area, ideal for outside entertaining and a lawn which is surrounded by planted borders containing a variety of flora. The garden is private and a great family space. This really is a remarkable home and has obviously been much loved and cared for by the current owners. Internal viewing is highly advised to truly appreciate both the space and quality of finish it offers. Wigston is a suburb situated to the South of Leicester City Centre.
