This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Little Hill, Wigston, offers an affordable entry to homeownership or a straightforward buy-to-let prospect. The layout is compact but well-proportioned for a single person or couple, with a private ground-floor position and communal outdoor space.
Practical points include mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing installed before 2002, and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal—useful for working from home or letting. The council tax band is very low, helping to keep running costs down.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold and additional leasehold-related costs (packs, ground rent, service charges) may apply; lease details are being compiled. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and external communal areas look in need of maintenance, and the cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, which could affect energy efficiency and future upgrade costs.
Set in a popular residential neighbourhood close to shops, primary and secondary schools (several rated Good by Ofsted) and regular bus links into Leicester city centre, the flat suits a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor seeking a manageable, low-tax home with clear potential for modest improvements.
