Summary - 30 St. Philips Road LE5 5TQ
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Large Edwardian detached house with loft conversion potential and no upward chain, ideal for families or developers.
Corner plot with large front, side and rear gardens
This distinctive Edwardian detached house sits on a prominent corner plot in Evington, offering exceptionally large living space across traditional rooms and high ceilings. The property keeps much original character — bay windows, parquet flooring and picture rails — while providing flexible accommodation that will suit a growing family or a conversion project.
Stand-out features include four reception rooms, a kitchen breakfast room and three bedrooms, plus eight boarded loft rooms with clear scope for alteration or conversion, subject to planning permission. There is ample off-street parking, a garage and mature front, side and rear gardens that enhance privacy and provide outdoor space for children or entertaining.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the EPC is rated F and the house has solid brick walls assumed to lack insulation, so energy upgrades will be needed. The property currently has one bathroom and some rooms previously served non-residential use (former clubhouse), so any change of use or alteration will require relevant approvals. Council tax is described as expensive.
Offered with no upward chain, this home represents a rare opportunity for purchasers seeking generous proportioned rooms, strong development potential and substantial external space in a well-connected Leicester neighbourhood. Whether you want a spacious family base now or a longer-term renovation/development project, the house’s scale and corner-plot position are significant advantages.
