A well-presented two-bedroom mid-terrace offering straightforward, affordable homeownership or rental potential in South Wigston. The ground floor has two reception rooms, a modern-style kitchen with utility and a ground-floor WC — practical for everyday living and easy management. Two double bedrooms with built-in storage and a sizeable bathroom with both bath and separate shower make the upstairs layout comfortable and versatile.
The property is freehold, gas centrally heated with double glazing, and sits on a small, low-maintenance rear garden with slabbed patio and fenced sides. At c.849 sq ft, the accommodation is an average-sized, traditional Victorian terrace with period character externally and functional interior space. Council Tax Band A helps running costs remain low.
Important considerations: the area is in a deprived ward with higher-than-average local crime and a constrained renter profile, which may affect long-term capital growth and resale speed. The property is of solid-brick construction with no known wall insulation (as built) and the EPC rating is currently awaited — buyers should obtain up-to-date energy and insulation advice. Early internal viewings are recommended to judge condition and investment suitability.
This home will suit a first-time buyer seeking an affordable step onto the ladder or an investor looking for a straightforward let in a town location with good transport and local amenities. It balances period street appeal with practical, low-maintenance interiors, but buyers should factor in area dynamics and potential energy-improvement costs.
