Set on a very large 0.43-acre plot, this substantial detached house offers nearly 3,000 sq ft of flexible family space in a convenient Syston location. The house currently provides five/five-plus bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a cloakroom, two reception rooms, a breakfast kitchen and a separate laundry/utility room — all arranged over two storeys and served by a double garage and generous off-street parking.
The property requires modernisation throughout: many internal fittings date from the 1970s, and the solid-brick walls are assumed to have no added insulation. The EPC is D and the house will benefit from updating of kitchens, bathrooms, heating controls and general decor to meet contemporary standards. Council Tax is Band G and should be factored into running costs.
For families the size, plot and layout are the key attractions: large reception rooms, a substantial rear garden, mature trees and a patio create scope for outdoor living and play. The home sits close to local shops, Syston train station, good road links and several primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted, making it practical for school runs and commuting.
This is a renovation opportunity rather than a move-in-ready house. Buyers seeking significant space with scope to reconfigure, extend or retrofit energy improvements will find genuine potential here. Internal inspection is recommended to appreciate the scale and configuration of rooms and the extensive garden.
