Chain-free three-bedroom semi in Old Leake, offered freehold and ready for immediate occupation. The house sits on a larger-than-average plot with an enclosed rear garden and off-street parking plus a single garage — useful for families or buyers wanting storage and outside space. Interiors are tidy and modern in parts, with built-in wardrobes and a practical layout: entrance hall with WC, galley kitchen and a generous lounge-diner at the rear.
The property does need some external and likely internal updating to reach its full potential. The roof tiles contain asbestos and the exterior shows overgrown landscaping and worn curb appeal; basic works to windows, doors, landscaping and redecoration would add clear value. Heating is by an oil-fired boiler with radiators (not a community supply) and double glazing was installed before 2002 — sensible to check service history and running costs.
Practical advantages include low flood risk, excellent mobile signal and village location close to good local primary schools and community amenities. Broadband speeds are slow and some buyers may need to investigate upgrades. The home will suit first-time buyers or investors prepared to carry out modest improvement works, or a family seeking a spacious garden and convenient parking in a rural community.
Overall, this is a straightforward, chain-free purchase with genuine scope to increase value through targeted repairs and cosmetic updating. Readily habitable now, it offers a balance of immediate use and longer-term upside for buyers who can budget for external maintenance and slower broadband limitations.
