Nestling on the prestigious London Road in the heart of Stoneygate and round the corner from Knighton Road and walking distance to the Stoneygate boutiques, this property in Stoneygate is an extremely favoured location within Leicester. When it comes to education, the choice locally is second to none.

Leicester Racecourse, Knighton Park and Oadby Parade are close by, and the beautiful Botanical Gardens of the University of Leicester are a joy to visit. It sits in the most sought-after Leicestershire postcode and is surrounded by open green spaces making it perfect for family life - and with Leicester city centre & train station less than a three-mile commute, it really does have it all. Easy access to the A563 leading to the popular Fosse Park and motorway routes.

As you step through the original bullseye oak front door, you are greeted by a spacious entrance hall featuring beautifully restored oak flooring and London mosaic feature tiles. The first reception room sets the tone with its blend of modern living and period features, including a stunning ceiling rose, original oak flooring, and a stylish log-burner fireplace. The room is enhanced by bespoke shutter-blinds and newly refurbished double-glazed windows, offering both privacy and ample natural light.

The property features a well-appointed three-piece shower room, a living room with a gas feature fireplace, and an open-plan kitchen/dining area. The kitchen is a highlight, boasting a newly fitted design with integrated appliances, spotlights, and large double-glazed windows providing picturesque views of the extensive south-facing rear garden.

Ascending the restored pine staircase, the landing offers potential for further accommodation, with access to four generously sized bedrooms and a modern four-piece family bathroom. The master bedroom features a charming fireplace and views to the frontage. The bathroom is tastefully designed with contemporary features, including a roll-top bath and a separate shower cubicle.

Situated on a mature plot, the property's curb appeal is heightened by an in-and-out driveway and a superbly landscaped frontage. The rear garden, with its mature trees and flowerbeds, offers both privacy and the potential for extension, subject to necessary consent. The property also benefits from a recently refurbished driveway, providing parking space for several cars.
