2 bed bungalow for sale

Gloucester Crescent, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18

This delightful two bedroom semi-detached bungalow occupies an attractive and private plot and is one of a select few neighbouring properties that back onto William Gunning Park situated between Sussex Road and Gloucester Crescent. Unlike many bungalows that come to the market requiring some updating, this particular home, is one that can be moved into and enjoyed immediately. The accommodation is very well presented and was obviously well maintained and improved by the previous owners. The home is also well placed for a range of local amenities. The Fairfield Inn and a parade of local shops that include a convenience store are within walking distance and a wider choice of services, eateries and supermarkets are available in both Wigston Magna and South Wigston both of which are a short drive or bus ride away.

Access to the bungalow is via a front door that opens to a small porch and in turn into a welcoming entrance hall, off which are two useful built-in storage/cloakroom cupboards, one of which houses the central heating system with the boiler having been replaced in 2019.

The lounge is generous and filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a large window to the front elevation and a second window to the side. The main focal point of the room is a feature fireplace which accommodates an electric fire.

The kitchen has been refitted to include a modern range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless-steel sink and drainer. There is integrated ceramic hob, built-in double electric oven, integrated frost free fridge/freezer and integrated washer/dryer. A back door from the kitchen opens to a conservatory.

The conservatory offers further reception space and has a brick base, uPVC windows and patio doors and an insulated and tiled roof. With a modern electric heater, it is a functional space all year round and could be used as a second sitting room but can also accommodate a large table and chairs and used as a dining area if preferred.

The largest of two double bedrooms lies adjacent to the lounge toward the front of the bungalow. With plenty of space for freestanding wardrobes and drawers the room also benefits from a built-in wardrobe and overhead storage. The second bedroom is versatile and also benefits from a built-in wardrobe. A set of French patio doors open to the garden.

The shower room comprises of a three-piece suite including a corner shower cubicle, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin. The shower room also has an airing cupboard.

To the front of the bungalow a hard standing driveway provides ample off-road parking and via a set of double gates to a detached single garage that is set back toward the rear. The garage provides useful additional storage/utility/workshop space.

At the rear is a mature and private garden with paved patio seating area, ideal for garden furniture and a lawn which is surrounded by well stocked planted borders that add both colour and structure to the garden.

This really is a fantastic bungalow with wide ranging appeal. It is light, spacious and welcoming and internal viewing is highly recommended.
