Wistow Road, Wigston, Leicestershire, LE18

This deceptive two double bedroom detached bungalow occupies an attractive and generous plot within a sought after non-estate position. Offered in excellent decorative condition the home has been significantly improved by the current owners during their time there and has obviously been very well maintained. The bungalow is in close proximity to a wide range of local amenities with the majority of Wigston's shops, services and eateries all within walking distance. The local leisure and medical centres are also a short drive or bus ride away.

The accommodation itself includes a porch which in turn leads into a spacious entrance hall. The bungalow is double fronted so there are rooms either side of the entrance hall.

The home's lounge is situated toward the front of the home and is filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a large window. A generous rectangular room with no fireplaces or chimneys means the room can be configured in a number of ways to suit individual circumstances.

Behind the lounge is the superb kitchen diner with French patio doors that open to the garden. The kitchen has been refitted to a high standard with an extensive range of base and wall mounted fitted units with a white high gloss finish. There are square edge work surfaces including a large kitchen island which is a convivial feature for the family to sit around and enjoy a hot drink or a bite to eat. the kitchen includes a one and a half bowl porcelain sink and drainer, integral gas hob and built-in eye -level electric oven. In addition, there is ample space for all essential appliances. The current owners have a freestanding American style fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer.

The principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double room with a window that overlooks the garden. A range of wardrobes and drawers can easily be accommodated.

The second bedroom is toward the front of the bungalow, on the other side of the entrance hall to the lounge. Although, slightly smaller than the main bedroom it is still a good size double with plenty of room for freestanding furniture.

Between the two bedrooms is a fantastic refitted shower room which comprises a modern three piece suite to include a large walk-in shower with fixed screen, low flush WC and a wash hand basin that sits on top of a vanity/storage unit.

Two the front of the home a block paved driveway with dropped kerb provides off-road parking and there is secure gated side access to the rear.

At the rear is a very attractive garden which is large enough to be surprising but small enough to be still manageable. The garden has a covered paved patio seating area and a lawn that is bisected by a path leading up to one of two timber-built storage sheds. The lawn is flanked either side by well-stocked planted borders.

This really is a delightful bungalow that is worthy of serious consideration for anyone looking for this type of property and does not want a huge amount of updating to do following a purchase. Internal viewing is essential to truly appreciate the space and presentation.
