Summary - 7, Bushby Road, LEICESTER LE5 0DE
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free Victorian terrace with two receptions and a low-maintenance courtyard garden.
Three bedrooms and two reception rooms, traditional Victorian features
A well-presented three-bedroom mid-terrace offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation — ideal for first-time buyers seeking a manageable, period home in Humberstone. The house keeps original Victorian character with sash-style windows, high ceilings and a solid brick exterior, while internal spaces are practical: two reception rooms, a galley kitchen and a downstairs family bathroom accessed from the extended rear.
The main bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and there are two further good-sized bedrooms upstairs. A private courtyard-style garden at the rear is low maintenance and easy to manage. At around 863 sqft the layout suits a small family, couple or investor requiring straightforward rental accommodation.
There is clear scope to add value through targeted improvements: upgrading glazing, adding wall insulation, and modernising kitchens or bathrooms would reduce running costs and improve comfort. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and local primary schools and community amenities are within reach.
Buyers should note material negatives: the local area scores as deprived with above-average crime and a medium flooding risk. The house appears to have solid brick walls with no visible cavity insulation and some original single-glazed windows, so heating bills could be higher until improvements are made. The garden and plot are small and there is just one family bathroom.
Overall, this freehold, chain-free terrace represents a practical, affordable entry into the Leicester market for first-time buyers or a buy-to-let investor prepared to carry out modest upgrades.
