Quietly positioned on the outskirts of Barwell village, this bay-fronted Victorian terrace blends period charm with modern updates. The ground floor offers a through lounge-diner, modern kitchen and a rear lobby with utility and downstairs WC — practical for everyday living. Upstairs are two generously sized bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom.
Outside, the property benefits from a large rear garden and an outbuilding, creating scope for outdoor living, storage or a home-workshop. The house is chain free and freehold, with fast broadband and 4G coverage, making it suitable for remote working and connected family life. Council tax is very cheap and there is no flooding risk.
The location is especially attractive to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors: several local schools are rated Good or Outstanding, and Hinckley’s wider shops, transport links and amenities are only a short drive away. Note the plot is small and the overall internal size is average; the property will suit buyers seeking manageable living space rather than a large family home. EPC currently TBC.
There is clear scope for further improvement or conversion to increase value, but purchasers should expect typical maintenance associated with a period terrace. The local area is a transitional neighbourhood with an active community; crime levels are average and some streets house social renters, so buyers should consider local demographic context alongside the property’s strengths.
