Bay-fronted Victorian terrace with period features and high ceilings
Step into this bay-fronted Victorian terrace on Fosse Road South and find a practical, characterful home for a first move or buy-to-let. The original tiled hallway and high ceilings give immediate period charm, while two reception rooms and a spacious kitchen offer flexible living space for day-to-day family life or working from home.
Upstairs are three generous bedrooms and a modern family bathroom, so the layout suits small families or sharers. Practical features include a separate utility room and ground-floor WC, plus a low-maintenance paved rear garden with brick outbuildings for storage and a small forecourt that adds kerb appeal. Excellent access to Leicester city centre, Narborough Road, Fosse Park and the M1/M69 makes commuting and shopping straightforward.
Buyers should note the location is in a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with very high local crime and an area classification indicating deprivation; this may influence resale or rental demand. The house is solid-brick Victorian with double glazing installed before 2002 and assumed no wall insulation, so buyers should budget for potential energy-efficiency improvements. Overall, the property presents a characterful, well‑located home with sensible scope for upgrading to improve comfort and running costs.
