Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Bramingham, this three-bedroom detached home offers straightforward family living with practical outdoor space. The ground floor features a generous lounge and a kitchen/diner opening to a lawned rear garden, while three good-sized bedrooms sit upstairs alongside a family bathroom. A driveway and single garage provide useful parking and storage.
The property is offered chain-free, set on a decent plot and built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, so it benefits from solid period construction and filled cavity walls. Gas central heating, a combi boiler and double glazing are already in place; the layout suits a young family or buyers wanting an accessible, well-located starter home.
There is some maintenance and updating required: the house shows mid-20th-century fittings and double glazing fitted before 2002. At about 726 sq ft the interior is compact for a three-bedroom detached, and there is a single bathroom serving all bedrooms. Buyers should note moderate council tax and the usual checks on services and measurements.
Positioned near local shops, schools and Leagrave station (around a mile), the home is convenient for daily commutes and family life. For purchasers seeking a practical, chain-free family house with scope to modernise, this property presents clear value on a pleasant cul-de-sac plot.
