This two double bedroom first floor flat is part of a purpose-built development off the Leicester Road. Offered with no upward chain the flat is superbly positioned for a plethora of local amenities. Large supermarkets and Oadby's main parade of smaller shops, services and eateries are all within walking distance. In addition, the local leisure and medical centres are also readily accessible. Commuters will find excellent road links into the city centre via the A6, and Leicester train station is only a ten minute drive away (traffic depending). For those that work from home the flat provides options to create office space, whether that be utilising one of the bedrooms or the impressive lounge/diner. The flat itself is well presented and has recently seen significant improvement through the refitting of the kitchen and newly carpeted and decorated throughout. The home is an ideal purchase for a first-time buyer, professional singles and couples and even those looking to downsize whilst maintaining easy access to local facilities.
Access to the flat is via a shared main entrance and up a staircase to the front door of the home itself. The main front door opens to an 'L' shaped entrance hall, off which, is a large storage cupboard and doors that lead through to all the rooms.
The flats feature space is a generous lounge diner which has a large window to the front elevation that allows in plenty of natural light. The room is a large rectangular space that can be configured in a variety of ways depending on furniture type and size. The room will comfortably accommodate a range of sofas, a dining table and chairs as well as freestanding display and storage furniture. A door from the lounge provides an alternative access to the kitchen.
The kitchen has been refitted to include a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless-steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a gas hob with extractor over and a built-in electric oven underneath. There is space for a fridge and plumbing for a washing machine. A built-in storage cupboard houses the boiler.
There are two double bedrooms which have identical dimensions meaning either could be used as the principal bedroom. Again, both bedrooms have large windows to the front elevation. If only one bedroom is required day-to-day the second bedroom could be used as office space or even a dressing room.
Finally, there is a fully tiled bathroom that comprises a three-piece suite to include a bath with shower over, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.
To the outside there is resident parking and attractively planted and well-maintained communal gardens.
This is a wonderful, spacious and ideally located two bedroom flat with wide ranging appeal. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
