Set well back from Leicester Road on a substantial, very large plot, this four-bedroom detached bungalow offers immediate liveability and clear potential. The single-storey accommodation (with a large first-floor bedroom) includes a sizeable lounge, separate dining room, kitchen with dining area, utility, and a ground-floor W.C., making it practical for family life or multigenerational living. The property is offered with no onward chain and benefits from a garage, driveway for two cars and a powered summerhouse in the garden.
Three double bedrooms on the ground floor are described in good condition and the bathroom contains both a bath and separate shower cubicle; the first-floor double bedroom and additional W.C. add flexibility. Services are strong for modern life (excellent mobile signal, fast broadband) and the location is close to well-rated primary and secondary schools, regular bus links and local conveniences in Groby.
The plot is the bungalow’s standout asset: extensive rear garden/orchard with development potential subject to planning permission (STPP). That presents options for extension, annex conversion or full redevelopment for those wanting to add value. Alternatively the garden will suit keen gardeners and families needing outside space.
Notable points to consider: the house is a mid-20th-century build and, while presented as functional, it will repay updating in places to bring kitchens, bathrooms and décor to contemporary standards. Any development would require planning permission and related costs. Council tax band D applies. These facts make the property attractive to buyers wanting space and scope to improve or develop rather than a turnkey, newly renovated home.
