Summary - 40 CHERRYLEAS DRIVE LEICESTER LE3 0LS
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Long lease, low charges and ready for modernization near city links.
First-floor 2-bedroom maisonette, approx. 700 sq ft
A 2-bedroom first-floor maisonette offered with NO UPWARD CHAIN, suitable for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a straightforward purchase. The flat includes double glazing, a front garden, and a practical layout of lounge, breakfast kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom across approximately 700 sq ft.
The property has a long lease (125 years remaining) and no service charge or ground rent, which simplifies running costs. Council Tax Band A and a modest energy rating (E) reflect lower ongoing costs but also indicate potential for energy improvements. Heating is by electric room heaters; there is no gas central heating installed.
The interior is dated and would benefit from modernization — for example, updating the kitchen, bathroom and heating will add comfort and value. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and has timber-frame sections with partial insulation (assumed), so prospective buyers should allow for typical mid‑20th century maintenance and upgrade work.
Location is practical for city access, local shops and bus links, with good broadband and mobile signal. Note the area records above-average crime; buyers should consider local safety measures and view the neighbourhood at different times. Viewing is recommended to assess condition and potential firsthand.
