A bay-fronted 1930s semi-detached home on a corner plot, offering three bedrooms, one bathroom and a long rear garden with garage accessed from The Parkway. The property has been extended to the rear in the past and now requires modernisation throughout — an ideal project for a family wanting to personalise a home or an investor seeking refurbishment potential.
The layout includes lounge, dining room and kitchen/breakfast room on the ground floor with three bedrooms upstairs. The decent plot size and corner position provide scope to extend to the side and rear, and potential to develop the rear garden, all subject to planning permission. The house has double glazing, mains gas central heating and an EPC rating of D.
Buyers should note the property will be sold at auction on 27 November 2025 with binding contracts exchanged on sale. Auction terms require a 5% deposit (minimum £5,000) and a buyers’ fee (4.8% of purchase price, minimum £6,000 inc. VAT) — review the Legal Pack carefully before bidding. The home needs renovation and upgrading, which is reflected in the guide price.
Located close to Scraptoft Lane and within reach of several well-rated primary and secondary schools, this freehold offers strong location appeal for growing families. For those prepared to invest time and budget, the house presents genuine scope to create a spacious, characterful family home in a popular Leicester neighbourhood.
