2 bed bungalow for sale

Brixham Drive, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18

This two double bedroom detached bungalow occupies a generous and wonderfully private plot within a sought after residential area on the Wigston/Knighton border. Offered with no upward chain the bungalow is neatly presented having been very well maintained and looked after by the current owners. The home is well positioned for a wide selection of local amenities with large supermarkets, an array of smaller shops and services as well as leisure and medical centres all within a short drive or bus ride away. The home will appeal to anyone looking to downsize as well as those who now require single storey living.

Access to the home is via a main front door that opens to a small porch area and in turn, through a further door, that leads into an entrance hall. The entrance hall has a built-in airing cupboard and doors that open to all rooms except for the conservatory.

The lounge is situated toward the rear of the bungalow and is spacious with plenty of room for a range of living room furniture. The room is filled with plenty of natural light thanks to a set of glazed sliding doors that open to the conservatory. The main focal point of the room is an electric fire that sits within a feature fireplace. The lounge has ample room for sofas as well as freestanding storage and display furniture.

The conservatory provides the bungalow with a further reception space with room for chairs and even a small table. The conservatory overlooks the delightful garden with a set of sliding patio doors that provide access.

The kitchen sits adjacent to the lounge toward the rear. The kitchen has a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work-surfaces and a stainless-steel sink and drainer. There is space for a freestanding cooker but there is a built-in extractor hood over. There is also undercounter space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is a window to the rear and a back door which leads into utility area and store.

The utility area has room for a tall freestanding fridge/freezer and has lots of useful storage and pantry space. A back door offers an alternative access point to the garden.

The bedrooms are toward the front of the bungalow. There are of almost identical size meaning either could be used as the principal bedroom with the other making a very comfortable guest bedroom. Bedroom One enjoys a bay window to whilst Bedroom Two benefits from a range of fitted wardrobes and overhead storage.

Finally, there is a fully tiled shower/wet room which comprises a three-piece suite to include a corner shower cubicle, low flush WC and wash hand basin that sits on top of a vanity unit.

To the front of the home a low maintenance paved garden is ideal for standing potted plants that result in a very pleasing kerb appeal. Adjacent to the front garden is a paved driveway that provides off-road parking and runs down the side of the bungalow to a detached single garage. The garage has light and power and if not used for parking provides useful additional storage and utility space.

At the rear is a well-proportioned, mature and very attractive garden. The garden has a paved patio seating area that can comfortably accommodate a range of outdoor furniture ideal for entertaining family and friends. There is a lawn that is interspersed with trees and conifers, including a particularly productive apple tree. The lawn is flanked by well-stocked planted borders. Toward the back of the garden there is a shingle area with raised vegetable plots. The garden is completed by a timber-built shed.

This delightful bungalow will hold wide ranging appeal, and internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the space and further potential the home has to offer.
