3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Dorchester Road, Western Park LE3

Set on Dorchester Road, this bay-fronted 1930s semi-detached home has two good reception rooms, three bedrooms, a 26ft garage and a long, leafy rear garden.

The house sits behind a low timber fence and a lawned front garden with established shrubs. A driveway runs alongside to the garage, with room for one or two cars. The front is classic of its period, with red brick, a rendered two-storey bay and an arched porch.

The hallway leads to the dining room at the front, where the curved bay window brings in plenty of light and there’s space for a family table. Double doors open into the living room behind, so the two rooms can be used together or kept separate. The living room has French doors straight out to the garden, giving it a bright, relaxed feel and making it easy to use the garden through the warmer months. The kitchen runs along the side of the house, fitted with white units, wood worktops, metro tiling and space for a range-style cooker. A door from the kitchen leads into the garage.

Upstairs, the landing has a leaded stained glass window, one of several period details that have been kept throughout. Rear double bedrooms has fitted wardrobes. The front bedroom has a deep bay window, and the rear bedroom looks out over the garden and the trees beyond. The third bedroom works well as a single room, a nursery or a home office but does fit a small double quite comfortably. The bathroom is fully tiled, with a bath and shower over, a pedestal basin and WC.

Outside, the rear garden is a real feature. It’s mainly lawn and stretches a good distance, with high hedging and mature trees along both sides, so it feels private and green. At 26ft, the garage is deep enough for a car as well as storage or a workshop. It has doors at both the front and the rear, so you can get from the driveway to the garden without going through the house.

Dorchester Road is in an established residential part of Western Park. Located close to Narborough Road and Fosse Park are nearby for everyday shopping, local schools are close by, and there are regular bus links into the city centre. Drivers can reach the M1 and M69 at Junction 21 easily, and Leicester station is a short drive away, with trains to London St Pancras in a little over an hour.
