Summary - Flat 9, 55, Watkin Road, LEICESTER LE2 7AZ
1 bed 1 bath House
Large balcony, close to city centre and transport links.
Allocated off-street parking space included
This bright one-bedroom apartment sits on the first floor of a modern 2007 development with lift access and allocated parking. The open-plan living area flows onto a large balcony, extending the living space and offering an outdoor spot for morning coffee or evening fresh air. At around 614 sq ft the layout is efficient for a single occupant or couple.
Built with double glazing and gas central heating, the property has an EPC rating of C and a long lease (approximately 132 years remaining). The communal garden provides some outdoor greenery, and the flat’s proximity to the city centre makes shops, dining and transport links easy to reach on foot.
This home will suit first-time buyers looking for a low-maintenance urban base or investors seeking a straightforward rental in a popular area. Note the wider neighbourhood is classified as a cosmopolitan student and terrace area — this can mean lively streets and potential tenant demand, but also some noise and transient occupancy. Council tax is affordable, broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold, so service charges and ground rent will apply (confirm amounts). School options close by range from Requires Improvement to Outstanding ratings, so check specific catchment boundaries if local schooling is a priority.
