Summary - 9, Church Lane, Thurmaston LE4 8DR
3 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Three-bedroom period semi with garden and driveway, ideal for first-time buyers wanting refurbishment potential.
Quiet cul-de-sac location overlooking local church
Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on Church Lane, this three-bedroom semi-detached home overlooks the local church and sits a short walk from Watermead Park. The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen/diner with garden access, a downstairs WC and a master bedroom with an en-suite — practical features for first-time buyers or young families.
The house is solid brick (circa 1900–1929) with double glazing fitted before 2002 and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. It benefits from a private rear garden, driveway parking for two cars and a manageable footprint (around 1,001 sq ft) that’s straightforward to maintain. Council Tax Band B and freehold tenure add to the affordability profile.
Important to note: the property needs renovation and some modernization throughout, with assumed solid brick walls lacking insulation. The glazing is older and there may be energy-efficiency improvements to consider. The area records above-average crime levels, so buyers should factor safety measures into any refurbishment plans.
This home offers clear scope for value-adding improvements: updating kitchens and bathrooms, improving insulation, and refreshing interiors could markedly increase comfort and resale potential. Its position near good primary schools and outstanding secondary provision, plus local shops and transport links, gives genuine everyday convenience while retaining characterful period charm.
