Set on Central Avenue in the heart of Wigston, this period semi-detached house offers two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a substantial rear garden. The property retains character features such as a chimney breast and coving while benefitting from double glazing and gas central heating. A sectional double garage and driveway deliver useful storage and off-street parking.
The layout works well for first-time buyers or small families seeking a practical home with scope. The separate living and dining rooms give flexible living space, and the dining room’s French doors open directly to the garden — good for summer entertaining. The house also presents clear potential for alteration or extension (subject to planning permission) if you want to increase living space or add value.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the area records higher crime levels and is relatively deprived, which may affect desirability. The property’s solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated and the EPC is D, so upgrading insulation and energy systems would improve comfort and running costs. The house is offered freehold with relatively low council tax, but some cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvements are recommended.
Overall this home suits a buyer looking for an affordable entry into Wigston with parking, a garden and scope to personalise. It’s a straightforward purchase for someone happy to invest modestly in modernisation to unlock better energy performance and long-term value.
