Summary - Wheatsheaf Court, Knighton Fields, Leicester LE2 6EY
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable city studio near university and hospitals, ideal single occupancy or investor.
Second-floor studio with open-plan living/kitchen/bedroom
A compact second-floor studio in the converted Wheatsheaf Works, this apartment suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking low-maintenance city living. The open-plan living/kitchen/bedroom benefits from high ceilings in parts, good natural light from dormer/skylight windows and modern fittings in the kitchen and bathroom. Communal decked area and off-street parking add useful external amenity in a city-centre location.
Practical running costs are reasonable: EPC rating C, council tax band A (very cheap) and a long lease of 116 years. Note heating is via a community scheme and the property is leasehold with a service charge (approx. 2,490pa) and ground rent ( 150pa). The flat’s overall footprint is small (approximately 366 sqft) and best suited to a single occupant or investor rather than a family.
Buyers should be aware of local drawbacks: the wider area records higher crime levels and the development sits in a deprived urban ward. The building’s converted character brings charm but also communal management obligations; internal viewing is recommended to confirm current condition and suitability. For someone prioritising location, light and efficient space, this is a straightforward, affordable entry into the Leicester market.
