3 bed town house for sale

Lansdowne Grove, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18

This wonderfully positioned three bedroom mid-townhouse is offered with no upward chain and occupies a generous plot with a garden that backs onto the Grand Union Canal at the rear. Although some updating is required throughout the home the property provides a fantastic opportunity for any potential buyer to add immediate and significant value to the home. The plot would also allow scope for extension to the rear with the home already having additional reception space in the form of a conservatory. The home is also superbly placed for a wide range of local amenities. Large supermarkets, a plethora of smaller shops and eateries are all within walking distance and Wigston's leisure and medical centres are also in close proximity.

The accommodation itself includes a large porch which has space to offload the weekly grocery shop in poor weather. There are two doors from the porch area, one which leads directly into the kitchen and another that leads into an entrance area with the stairs rising to the first floor landing and an opening into the lounge diner.

The lounge diner is a spacious dual aspect room with a window to the front elevation and sliding patio doors that open to the conservatory at the rear. The main focal point to the room is a feature fireplace that is set onto a central chimney breast. The space could be configured in a variety of ways with ample space for a range of lounge and dining room furniture.

The conservatory has a brick base and timber construction and is plumbed into the central heating system making is functional all year round. A set of French patio doors give access to the garden.

A door from the lounge diner opens to the kitchen. The kitchen is a good size with a window that overlooks the garden. Although many buyers will look to update the kitchen it is certainly functional and contains a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a composite sink and drainer. There is an integral electric hob and built-in double oven. The kitchen has ample space for a freestanding fridge/freezer and has space and plumbing for a washing machine.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double room with fitted wardrobes and overhead storage and a built-in storage cupboard. The second bedroom also enjoys a built-in wardrobe/cupboard and has a window that overlooks the garden and canal. The third bedroom could accommodate a double bed but does offer the versatility to be used as an office space if not required as a bedroom.

Like the kitchen the bathroom may well be updated but the space is fantastic and therefore the bathroom comfortably fits a four-piece suite to include bath and separate shower, low flush WC and wash hand basin that sits on top of a vanity unit.

To the front of the home a pebbled driveway provides off-road parking for at least two vehicles and if prepared to park over the path leading to the front door then four cars can be parked.

At the rear is a mature and private garden with a paved patio seating area and area of lawn and a well-stocked planted border containing a variety of small trees and shrubs. A path runs down to the end of the garden and past a couple of timber-built storage sheds taking you to the bank of the canal which is an ideal spot to sit, soak up the sun and enjoy a drink or two!

The boiler was only fitted in 2021 and is part of a modern system with a large water tank in the airing cupboard and heat exchangers on the roof to the rear.

This home has superb potential and could be transformed into something quite special. Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the space it provides and the future possibilities it holds.
