Summary - 5 Oxford Street, Syston LE7 2AT
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Chain free and freehold on a large plot with extension potential
Set on a generous plot within easy walking distance of Syston centre, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers practical single-storey living and clear potential to personalise. The layout includes a lounge with bay window, separate dining room with patio doors, a fitted kitchen, bathroom plus separate WC, and useful garage and stores. The property is offered chain-free on freehold tenure.
This home will suit a buyer seeking downsizing ease or a renovation project. The large rear garden and overall plot provide scope to extend (subject to planning) and improve energy performance and finishes. The accommodation is comfortable but dated: carpets, wallpaper and some fixtures reflect mid‑20th‑century styling and will benefit from updating.
Buyers should note an EPC rating of E (47) and that the property requires modernisation to boost efficiency and contemporary comfort. The surrounding area records higher crime levels and indicators of local deprivation; consider this with the property’s strong transport links, nearby schools, and access to local shops, services and Syston train station.
Practical positives include UPVC double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, off‑street parking and a garage. For purchasers aiming to add value — whether by refurbishment or extension — this bungalow represents a rare single‑storey opportunity close to town amenities.
