Set on a quiet residential close in Loughborough, this three-bedroom semi-detached home offers an affordable entry into a popular area. The ground floor provides a front lounge and a kitchen/diner that opens out toward the private rear garden overlooking the canal — a calm outlook that adds real everyday appeal.
The property retains practical, basic finishes throughout and has an EPC rating of C. Bedrooms are carpeted and well-proportioned; the bathroom has a shower-over-bath and vinyl flooring. Services are good with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and local amenities include shops, bus links, a playground and leisure facilities.
This house is best for buyers ready to update and personalise: there is clear scope to modernise the kitchen, bathrooms and decor to add value. Important to note: the area is classified as deprived, local crime levels are high and the property lies in a high flood-risk zone. The plot is small and external maintenance will be needed.
Despite those issues, the property’s freehold tenure, canal-side garden and proximity to several well-regarded primary and secondary schools make it a sensible choice for families or first-time buyers prepared to invest in refurbishment. Council tax is low, which helps running costs while improvements are carried out.
