An attractive and extended three-bedroom end terraced family home, occupying a generous corner plot with a substantial side garden and the added benefit of planning permission for further extensions. The property offers well-presented accommodation, including a spacious sitting room, an impressive contemporary dining kitchen and a stylishly refitted family bathroom, together with off-road parking.

Planning permission was granted by Leicester City Council on 23 September 2025 (reference 20250756) for the construction of single-storey extensions to the front and rear, together with alterations to the existing house, offering an exciting opportunity for purchasers wishing to further enhance the accommodation, subject to the conditions of the permission.

Location
Just three and a half miles east of Leicester city centre, the area provides excellent access into Leicester with its shopping facilities and mainline railway station, along with a range of local shopping amenities found along the nearby Uppingham Road.

Accommodation
The accommodation is entered via a entrance porch with wood-effect flooring and space for coats and shoes, with a glazed door leading into the sitting room. This generous reception room enjoys a continuation of the wood-effect flooring, a window to the front elevation fitted with plantation-style shutters and a feature tiled chimneybreast wall.

Undoubtedly a highlight of the property, the superb dining kitchen provides a spacious and contemporary environment for everyday family living and entertaining. Finished with attractive marble-effect tiled flooring, the kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of sleek white eye and base level units and drawers, complemented by marble-effect preparation surfaces and stylish gold detailing. A substantial central island provides additional preparation space and a sociable focal point to the room. Appliances include a gas hob with extractor above, integrated double ovens and a drinks fridge, together with space for an American-style fridge-freezer. The kitchen opens into a generous dining area, with recessed ceiling spotlights, a concealed wall-mounted gas boiler and glazed double doors providing direct access onto the rear garden.

To the first floor, the landing benefits from a shuttered window and a useful overstairs storage cupboard.

Bedroom two is a further well-proportioned double, currently accommodating bunk beds, and benefits from an additional storage cupboard. Bedroom three is a good-sized single with a shuttered window to the front elevation.

Completing the first-floor accommodation is the beautifully refitted family bathroom, finished with striking marble-effect wall panels and tiled flooring.
