This is a newly built, two-bedroom home (The Joiner) designed for efficient everyday living. The ground floor offers a light living room leading to an open-plan kitchen and dining area with French doors onto an enclosed rear garden — an easy-to-manage outdoor space for morning coffee or a small barbecue. Fitted kitchen appliances are included, and the overall finish is contemporary and neutral, suitable for a first home or a rental unit.
Upstairs provides two double bedrooms separated by the family bathroom, giving reasonable privacy for sharers or visiting family. At 668 sq ft the footprint is compact and rooms are modest in size; the layout prioritises usable living space over large rooms. The home is freehold and benefits from a 10-year NHBC Buildmark policy and a developer with recent industry awards, which may reassure buyers about build standards and early defect cover.
Practical considerations are straightforward: there is allocated off-street parking (marketing materials mention parking for two, while images show a single driveway), and a small landscaped front and rear garden requiring low maintenance. Broadband speeds are reported fast and mobile signal excellent, and the development sits in an affluent area close to primary schools and around 10 miles from Leicester city centre — convenient for commuters.
Buyers should note limitations: plot and garden sizes are small, internal rooms are compact, and estate/management charges of £390 apply (listed as below average). Council tax band is yet to be confirmed. This home suits first-time buyers, buy-to-let investors or downsizers seeking a low-maintenance, modern starter home rather than buyers wanting large family accommodation.
