A traditional bay-fronted semi-detached home on a generous plot, well placed in a quiet cul-de-sac near Knighton Park. The ground floor offers flexible living with three reception rooms and a kitchen, while the first floor provides three double bedrooms and a family bathroom — a straightforward layout for family living.
The large established rear garden is a key asset, offering scope for children’s play, entertaining, or a substantial rear extension (subject to necessary planning permission). The property is chain free and freehold, making it a practical purchase for buyers wanting a timely move and long-term ownership.
Practical considerations include an EPC rating of D, part secondary double glazing, and cavity walls assumed without insulation — sensible buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements and some modernization. There is a single family bathroom and moderate council tax.
Location is a strong selling point: easy walking distance to Overdale schools, good access to local shops on Queens Road, and proximity to Leicester city centre and hospitals. This house will suit families who value outdoor space and the potential to personalise an established, character property.
