Summary - 22 KEATS LANE EARL SHILTON LEICESTER LE9 7DQ
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
High-spec renovated cottage with large rear garden and countryside views, ideal first home.
Freehold two-bedroom semi-detached cottage, fully renovated
This recently renovated two-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers an attractive entry point for first-time buyers seeking character with modern comforts. The interior has been refurbished to a high standard: bespoke fittings, oak doors, wool carpeting, a feature 150‑year‑old slate fireplace and a high‑spec Gaddesby kitchen with built‑in Smeg appliances. A log burner in the lounge and replaced windows add comfort and efficiency, while the upgraded central heating boiler was fitted in 2019.
Externally the property benefits from a larger‑than‑average rear garden with countryside views — a rare and valuable outdoor asset for a home of this size. There is on‑plot/adjacent parking shown and a small front garden that suits the cottage setting. Tenure is freehold and council tax band is very cheap, which helps running costs for a new household.
Important practical points: the overall internal floor area is small (approximately 402 sq ft) so space is limited; the site and area show signs of deprivation and local crime is above average. The EPC rating is currently TBC and some external joinery and roof elements should be inspected closely. Viewings are strictly by appointment only.
For a buyer prioritising character, a ready-to-live-in finish and countryside outlook within easy reach of local amenities and schools, this cottage represents a compact, low-running-cost option. Buyers needing lots of living space or seeking a very secluded rural plot should note the modest footprint and nearby area constraints.
