House For Sale £240,000
College Avenue, Leicester LE2


Description
A rare visitor to the open market in the form of this three bedroom bay-fronted terraced house situated down a quiet cobbled street within Leicester city centre with the added benefit of being offered with No Upwards Chain.

Dating back to the early 1900's and approached via a no-through, quiet cobbled street with wrought iron gates to the entrance, a sense of peace and tranquillity is apparent from the moment you arrive to College Avenue. Despite being positioned just behind London Road with an array of local amenities, bars and restaurants, the location of College Avenue is both idyllic and incredibly private - perfect for those needing convenient access to Leicester train station/Leicester city centre but also wanting a sense of privacy.

Accommodation, in brief, comprises of a deceptively spacious entrance hall that opens to two generously proportioned reception rooms and a fitted kitchen to the rear. The first reception room boasts a feature gas-fireplace to the centre of the room whilst the front of the room boasts a large single-glazed wooden bay-window which lets a great source of natural light into the space on offer. With high ceilings and picture rails, the room includes an array of original features but has been modernised to accommodate twenty-first century living. The second reception room (currently configured as a bedroom) boasts a single-glazed sash-window to the rear elevation alongside a built-in storage cupboard. To the rear of the property, a well presented and recently re-painted fitted kitchen that boasts original sash-windows to both the side/rear elevation alongside a four-ring gas cylinder hob, concealed extractor fan and ample surface preparation area with uPVC doors leading to the courtyard garden. Ascend the stairs to find three double bedrooms and a recently fitted, modern three piece family bathroom. Retaining a wealth of charm and character to include high ceilings, picture rails and sash-windows, the property is presented in good decorative condition throughout. The loft has been boarded and offers an excellent opportunity for further extension (subject to all necessary consents) but if anything proves as an excellent use of storage. To the rear of the property, a North-West facing, low maintenance and private courtyard garden boasts an outbuilding and raised patio area. To the front of the property, a well presented garden with established trees and mature shrubbery offer the property excellent curb appeal. The property also benefits from a newly fitted Logic Plus 24 condensing boiler installed in 2017/2018.

The rarity of properties coming to the market on this particular street which is positioned only a stones throw away from Leicester city centre alongside being offered with No Upwards Chain, early interest comes with the agents highest recommendation.

Vendor comments:

" College Avenue is a lovely, warm spacious house on a quiet and peaceful street. Tucked away with wrought iron lampposts, the street has a special feeling about it. We were very happy there when working at the university. Less than half a mile from Sparkenhoe Community and Highfields Primary School - both rated outstanding - College Avenue would make a great family house. Close to all the amenities of London Rd, and with a two-minute secret short cut to the train station, commuting was made easy for us. "
