A spacious extended three-bedroom semi-detached house on a large plot in Shelthorpe Road, Loughborough. The property offers generous living space including lounge/diner, a secondary reception room, a large kitchen/diner opening to a conservatory, and a full-width converted loft room currently used as additional accommodation. Off-road parking for several vehicles and a side garage add practical appeal for families and those with multiple cars.
The rear garden is private, low-maintenance and walled both sides, with additional brick outbuildings and a powered garage. Double glazing and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators provide basic comfort; broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent. The layout suits family living, entertaining or potential rental income if used as an investment.
Buyers should note several practical matters: the property dates from the 1930s–40s and will likely benefit from updating in places; services and appliances have not been tested and a survey is recommended. The converted loft room offers useful extra space but any change of use or permanent bedroom designation would require checking planning/building regulations. There is one family bathroom for three bedrooms.
The wider area shows signs of economic deprivation and crime is above average, which will be relevant to some buyers. Conversely, the location is close to a mix of state and well-regarded independent schools and local amenities, making this a practical family home with scope for improvement and added value through targeted refurbishment.
