Summary - 39 THE BANKS SILEBY LOUGHBOROUGH LE12 7RD
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free village cottage with courtyard garden and parking, ideal for first-time buyers.
Village-centre character cottage, freehold and no upward chain
This characterful two-bedroom terraced cottage sits in the heart of Sileby village and is offered freehold with no upward chain. The layout includes two reception rooms, a modern breakfast kitchen and a re-fitted bathroom, making it immediately habitable for a single person or couple. A compact fore garden provides off-street parking and a gated courtyard garden gives private outdoor space.
The property is solid brick and retains period features such as exposed beams and a chimney breast with a gas fire. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators; double glazing is fitted though installation dates are unknown. The EPC is band D currently, with potential improvement to band B, indicating scope to raise efficiency and value.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the house is modest in footprint with small rooms and garden, and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated. The location has a medium flood risk and crime levels above average for the area. Some external decorative maintenance (render/paint) and further energy upgrades may be needed to modernise and reduce running costs.
Overall this cottage offers an affordable, chain-free entry to village living with clear upside for cosmetic and energy improvements. It will suit first-time buyers seeking a town-centre location or investors targeting steady rental demand in a well-served village.
