Separate lounge plus study/playroom provides flexible living space
Landscaped, fully enclosed rear garden; small overall plot

Local area records higher-than-average crime — consider security
This extended three-bedroom semi-detached home in Thorpe Astley is arranged for everyday family life and informal entertaining. The open-plan kitchen/dining/living extension plus separate lounge and a study/playroom give flexible living space for parents, children and home working. A landscaped, fully enclosed rear garden and off-street driveway add practical outdoor space and parking.
Practical benefits include a utility room, downstairs WC, a generous principal bedroom with dressing area/walk-in wardrobe, and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working and streaming. The property is freehold with low council tax band B and sits close to good primary and secondary schools, green spaces and commuter links to Leicester and the M1.
Be upfront about two important negatives: the plot is small and the area records higher-than-average crime levels. The house has only one main bathroom (with a downstairs WC), which may be a drawback for larger families. Despite these points, the sizeable internal footprint and move-in-ready condition present a strong option for families seeking space and connectivity in a suburban location.
Viewings will suit buyers prioritising flexible living layouts, good local schools and convenient transport — and who are comfortable with a smaller plot and wanting to consider security measures given local crime levels.
