Summary - Ledwell Drive, Glenfield, Leicester, Leicestershire LE3 8BG
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free three-bed semi with garage, garden and strong renovation potential.
Bay-fronted three-bedroom semi with traditional layout
Located in the popular village of Glenfield, this bay-fronted three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a straightforward, spacious layout and strong scope for improvement. Recent external windows and doors have been fitted, while the property otherwise requires modernisation — ideal for buyers who want to add value through cosmetic and practical upgrades. The ground floor features an entrance porch, hallway, through lounge-diner with patio doors to the garden, and a kitchen. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Externally the home sits on a decent plot with a generous, well-maintained rear garden, paved patio and planted borders. Off-street parking is provided by a driveway and a detached single garage. The property is offered with no upward chain and freehold tenure, which simplifies moving and purchase timing.
Practical details suit everyday family life: mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing already installed, and an affordable Council Tax Band C. Local amenities, regular bus links and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are all close by, making this a convenient option for first-time buyers or young families.
Notable negatives are factual and important: the house requires renovation and cosmetic updating throughout, the glazing predates 2002 and may need replacement over time, and the area records higher crime levels than average — prospective buyers should factor refurbishment costs and security improvements into their budgets. Overall, this is a solid purchase for someone seeking a traditional, well-sited family home with clear potential to personalise and increase value.
