Location

Oadby remains one of the most established residential areas on the south-eastern side of Leicester, combining a good range of everyday amenities with convenient access into the city and towards the surrounding Leicestershire countryside. The centre of Oadby is focused around The Parade, where there is a varied selection of shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday services, while the wider area also offers a choice of supermarkets. For leisure and outdoor space, local landmarks include Brocks Hill Country Park, Leicester Racecourse and the University of Leicester Botanic Garden, all well-known features of the Oadby area.
Oadby is also well placed for travelling into Leicester, with regular bus connections into the city. The A6 provides one of the principal routes between Oadby and Leicester and continues south towards Market Harborough, while the A563 provides connections around the southern side of the city. The area has a good selection of schooling at both primary and secondary level. Given that school admissions and catchment areas can change, purchasers should make their own enquiries with the relevant schools and local authority if this is an important consideration.
