Features and description
- Freehold
This superb extended and very well presented three/four bedroom semi-detached family home occupies a generous South facing plot within a highly sought after residential area. Conveniently located for Oadby's parade of various shops, services and amenities the home is also within the catchment for a number of highly regarded local schools that facilitate the education of all age groups from Primary to Sixth Form. The home has been extended significantly on the ground floor with a fabulous wrap around extension that accommodates a stunning kitchen diner and utility area. This has left a space where the kitchen used to be which is now a versatile space that the current owner uses as an office but does offer the flexibility to be used as either a second reception room or fourth bedroom if required.
The accommodation includes a porch, which has also been created through an extension to the front and is big enough to provide a place to hang coats and store shoes. It is also offers a great space to drop of the weekly shop when the weather is poor. There are stairs to the first floor and sits open plan to the homes main living room.
The living room is generous and is a duel aspect space with a window to the front elevation and a set of sliding patio doors that open to the rear garden. The current owner has installed a feature wood burning stove that sits within a feature fireplace. A door from the lounge leads through to the study and a set of double doors opens to the highly impressive kitchen diner.
The study, as previous mentioned, was where the kitchen used to be prior to extension. It is now a great office space, but does open the possibility to be used as a ground floor bedroom, especially as is benefits from an en-suite ground floor WC and wash hand basin. It also could be a snug or extra sitting room.
The homes feature space is a stunning kitchen diner. It is large and light thanks to a set of bi-fold doors leading to the garden, a feature floor to almost ceiling window that overlooks the garden and two skylight windows. There is an extensive range of base and wall mounted fitted units, roll-edge work surfaces and porcelain sink drainer. There is an integral hob, built-in oven, extractor hood and integral dishwasher. One of the storage units also houses an American style fridge freezer. The part of the extension that is to the side of the original home is used as a utility area with further storage units and counter work surfaces with space and plumbing for a washer/dryer. A door from this area opens to the front driveway.
To the first floor the bedrooms are all good size double rooms, unusual for a semi-detached home as the third bedroom is often a single. The principal bedroom and the third bedroom have windows to the rear and enjoy views of the garden, whilst bedroom two has a window to the front elevation.
Also on the first floor is a fully tiled family shower room comprising a three piece white suite to include a large corner shower cubicle, low flush WC and pedestal was hand basin.
To the front of the home a driveway provides ample off-road parking. At the rear is a large family garden, which despite the size of the extension does not feel in any way compromised as a space. There is a paved patio seating area, a generous lawn and paved areas ideal for standing potted plants. It offers a space to entertain and for children to play and does offer the scope to extend the property even further if needed and subject to local planning.
This really is a stunning home with wide ranging appeal and could satisfy the needs of a plethora of potential buyers at various stages of family life. Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the size, quality and flexibility of this magnificent property.
