Summary - 4 Elizabeth Drive, Oadby LE2 4RD
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Large-plot bungalow in Oadby with strong extension potential and excellent schools nearby.
Detached two-bedroom bungalow on a large, private plot
A well-proportioned two-bedroom detached bungalow on Elizabeth Drive, set on a large plot in desirable Oadby. The house retains period character with bay windows and a generous sitting room, and offers immediate parking, a single garage and an enclosed rear garden — rare for bungalow stock in this area.
The property is offered with full freehold and gas central heating but requires extensive upgrading and modernisation throughout. Current features include a fitted kitchen, bathroom with separate WC, fitted bedroom storage and uPVC double glazing; the EPC is rated D. For buyers prepared to renovate, there is planning potential to add a second storey (subject to consents), presenting clear value-add scope.
This bungalow will suit families seeking proximity to outstanding local schools, downsizers wanting single-storey living with scope to customise, or investors targeting refurbishment and extension potential. Practical benefits include low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus easy access to Oadby village amenities and Leicester city centre.
Material drawbacks are straightforward: the home needs comprehensive updating, there may be costs for replacement or modernisation of kitchens, bathrooms, fixtures and finishes, and any two-storey extension will require planning permission and further investment. Buyers should budget for refurbishment and obtain professional surveys prior to purchase.
