This substantial five-bedroom semi-detached period house sits opposite Queens Park and a short walk from Loughborough town centre and university — an area with strong rental demand. The property retains many original features: bay windows, stained glass, ornamental fireplaces and tiled floors, and benefits from gas central heating, a log burner and top-floor air conditioning. There is off-street parking, a walled rear garden and generous room volumes over three storeys.
The layout lends itself to multiple uses. As a single-family home it offers flexible reception space, a large fitted dining kitchen, utility, cloakroom and a garden room plus five bedrooms and two bathrooms. For investors there is clear potential to convert into flats or HMO (subject to necessary planning consents and licensing) given the building size and proximity to the university and town amenities.
Buyers should note a few material points: the building is solid-brick Victorian/Edwardian construction with assumed no wall insulation, the Energy Performance Rating is E, and there is a medium flood risk and very high local crime rate — factors that affect insurance, running costs and lettability. The property is offered chain free, but any conversion or change of use will require formal approvals. Overall, this is a characterful, well-located house with strong potential for an investor or a buyer prepared to update and manage period maintenance.
