Summary - 18 Central Road, Leicester LE3 5EJ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Characterful central home with conversion potential close to city amenities.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace with two reception rooms and two bedrooms
A compact Victorian mid-terrace on Central Road offering two reception rooms, two bedrooms and a small rear garden. Its central location — under a mile from Leicester city centre — is ideal for first-time buyers seeking easy access to shops, transport and local schools. The property is freehold and includes period features such as high ceilings and fireplaces that add character and appeal.
The house requires some updating: decor is dated, the living room shows signs of potential damp near front windows, and the kitchen and bathroom are basic. The loft is insulated and partially boarded, offering modest attic storage or conversion potential (subject to checks and consents). Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and council tax is very low, supporting affordable running costs.
Please note this sale is by Modern Auction. An undisclosed reserve price applies and buyers must pay a non-refundable reservation fee and other auction-related costs — see the buyer information pack and complete independent due diligence before bidding. The surrounding area scores high on crime and deprivation metrics and the property has a medium flood risk; these are important factors for financing, insurance and long-term plans.
For a first-time buyer willing to modernise, or an investor seeking a city-centre rental, this modest terrace offers clear value: traditional character, a garden, close amenities and good transport links. Expect straightforward refurbishment rather than structural overhaul, but verify services and obtain a survey before committing.
