This three-bedroom detached house on Irvine Crescent offers modern family living on the sought-after New Lubbesthorpe development. Built by Davidsons Homes and still covered by the remainder of its NHBC warranty, the layout includes a bright entrance hall, generous lounge with bay window, and a contemporary open-plan dining kitchen with integrated appliances and French doors onto the garden. The master bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room.
Practical everyday features include a boarded loft with light and power, a single garage, driveway parking for two cars with an EV charger, and a private low-maintenance rear garden. The home is tastefully decorated throughout and sized at approximately 980 sq ft, suited to families needing flexible living space and sensible storage.
Location advantages include nearby primary and secondary schools within the development, local shops, and good road links to Leicester and the M1/M69. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and connectivity. There is a small annual service charge of around £180 for communal upkeep.
Notable drawbacks are factual: the property sits on a relatively small plot, and local recorded crime levels are very high, which may concern some buyers. Council tax is described as moderate. These factors should be weighed alongside the home’s warranty, modern fittings, and family-friendly layout when deciding to view.
