Set well back from the road behind a broad gravel frontage, this detached character bungalow sits in the heart of Glenfield. It combines period charm with a substantial modern extension and offers a rare mix of space, versatility and single-storey living.
The accommodation extends to approximately 1,521 sq ft, not counting the double garage and workshop. It is reached through an attractive octagonal entrance porch that opens into a central hallway, which gives access to the well-proportioned rooms.
The lounge is a warm and elegant main reception room. It keeps much of the home's original character, including an oak fire surround with a cast iron fireplace, exposed floorboards, deep coving and a built-in display cabinet, and glazed double doors connect it to the hallway.
The open-plan kitchen/diner measures almost 24' x 20' and is the real heart of the home. A comprehensive range of Shaker-style units sits alongside dark worktops, an integrated dishwasher and space for a range cooker. The tiered ceiling with inset spotlights, the arched feature windows and the bi-fold doors to the patio fill the room with natural light. There is ample space for a large dining table and a separate sitting area, which makes it ideal for everyday family life and entertaining alike.
There are two excellent double bedrooms, both with extensive fitted wardrobes and their own en-suite, one of which has twin basins, and one of which with French doors into the conservatory. This gives it real flexibility as a self-contained annexe-style space for an elderly relative or older child. A third bedroom and a separate guest WC complete the accommodation.
Outside, the private rear garden has been carefully maintained. It has a wide paved terrace, a level lawn, a summer house and an established selection of mature trees and shrubs, giving a secluded setting for relaxing and entertaining. The gravel driveway provides parking for several vehicles and leads to a substantial double garage and workshop at the rear, measuring 22'3" x 20'3".
Glenfield offers a good range of local shops, cafés, schools and green spaces. Regular bus services run into Leicester city centre, and the nearby A50 and A46 give convenient access across the county.
This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a spacious and characterful detached bungalow, with the flexibility to suit families, downsizers and multi-generational buyers alike.
