House For Sale £290,000
South Knighton Road is arguably one of South Knighton's most sought after suburban addresses and is characterised by its charming Victorian architecture, epitomised by broad bay windows punctuating each house. Situated in the tranquil lower section of South Knighton Road, adjacent to the exclusive Elms Road bordering Stoneygate, this property has been meticulously refurbished to embody a harmonious blend of contemporary design and traditional charm, creating an ideal modern haven for families.
A delightful introduction to the residence unveils a welcoming front reception room, illuminated by a generously proportioned double glazed bay window that bathes the entire ground floor in natural light. The central area boasts an inviting open-plan living/dining space adorned with stylish oak flooring, seamlessly extending into a thoughtfully extended shaker-style breakfast kitchen. The well-appointed kitchen features a suite of integrated appliances including a dishwasher, washing machine, double-oven, fridge-freezer, and a four-ring gas cylinder hob with a concealed extractor hood. A set of newly fitted uPVC French doors not only offer scenic views but also provide effortless access to the low-maintenance, well-established rear garden.
Ascending to the first floor, a spacious landing leads to two generously sized double bedrooms, each offering its own distinctive appeal. The master bedroom, graced with a captivating front bay window overlooking South Knighton Road, presents ample space for accommodating freestanding furniture. Meanwhile, the second double bedroom boasts an original Victorian fireplace, serving as a charming centre piece, alongside a double-glazed window providing serene views of the rear garden. The residence is further enhanced by a newly refurbished, luxurious four-piece family bathroom, featuring a captivating roll-top bath, a walk-in rainfall shower cubicle, a low flush w/c, and a separate basin. Additionally, the property's insulated and part-boarded loft space holds the potential for future expansion, subject to necessary consents, offering the possibility of incorporating a third bedroom with an en-suite, a prospect yet to be explored by the current homeowner.
At the rear, a meticulously maintained, predominantly laid-to-lawn South-facing garden with a raised patio area and an array of mature trees ensures a private and serene outdoor retreat, while the front of the property presents a charming shallow cobbled stone entry, adding to the property's undeniable curb appeal.
