Beautifully Presented Two-Bedroom Bungalow with Modern Upgrades, Solar Panels, Garage and Excellent Potential
Family Home
A beautifully presented and thoughtfully updated two-bedroom bungalow, ideally suited to those looking for a comfortable, modern and versatile home. The property has been well maintained and benefits from a range of recent improvements, including a newly fitted roof with solar panels, a modern kitchen and a new boiler installed approximately three years ago. The radiators throughout the property were also replaced around three years ago, providing efficient and reliable heating.
The heart of the home is the stylish open-plan kitchen and dining area, creating a bright and sociable space that is ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The modern kitchen offers a contemporary finish with plenty of storage and workspace, while the adjoining dining area provides a welcoming space for family meals and gatherings.
The bungalow offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, with fitted wardrobes providing excellent built-in storage. The bathroom has been designed with accessibility in mind, making it practical and convenient for a range of needs.
Outside, the property continues to impress, with a spacious driveway providing parking for three or more vehicles, together with a garage offering additional parking, storage or potential for other uses. To the rear is a lovely decking area with a pleasant seating space, creating an ideal spot for relaxing, entertaining or enjoying the garden during the warmer months.
The loft has been insulated, helping with the property's energy efficiency, and there is also excellent potential to extend the property, with planning permission having previously been granted. This offers an exciting opportunity for future owners to further increase the living space, subject to any necessary permissions.
Further benefits include the recently fitted roof and solar panels, offering the potential for improved energy efficiency and reduced running costs. With its combination of modern upgrades, generous parking, useful storage, outdoor entertaining space and potential for future enlargement, this bungalow offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking for a comfortable home with scope to make it their own.
Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation, improvements and potential this property has to offer.

Rich in Victorian heritage and cultural history, the city blends historic architecture with modern regeneration, creating an attractive place to live for families, professionals and students alike.
Well-positioned close to the M1 motorway, Leicester benefits from strong transport connections across the Midlands and beyond. Direct rail services to London St Pancras International take around 1 hour 10 minutes, making it a viable option for commuters as well as those travelling for business.
The city is known for its green spaces and family-friendly neighbourhoods. Abbey Park, Bradgate Park and the River Soar provide attractive outdoor areas for walking, cycling and leisure activities.
Education is a key draw for the area. There are a number of well-regarded schools across the city, including Rushey Mead Academy, which has previously been rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted. Leicester is also home to two major universities, the University of Leicester and De Montfort University supporting a large and dynamic student population. Many graduates choose to remain in the city after completing their studies, sustaining strong demand for rental property and first-time buyer homes.
Leicester has a growing economy supported by a thriving creative and digital sector, alongside established industries in manufacturing, engineering and professional services. Major employers in and around the city include IBM and a range of national and international businesses.
