56 Granby Street
Leicester
LE1 1DH
A traditional two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace home, offering well-proportioned accommodation and a good-sized rear garden, conveniently positioned for access into Leicester city centre.
Having previously been let, the property is now somewhat tired in places and would benefit from a programme of general updating, particularly to the kitchen and bathroom, but provides an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to improve and personalise the house to their own requirements.
Location
The property is located in Newfoundpool which provides excellent access into the city centre and with its professional quarters and mainline railway station as well as being within easy walking distance of the abundance of local facilities along Fosse Road North and a little further, the popular Narborough Road and Braunstone Gate.
Accommodation
The accommodation begins with a good-sized front sitting room, entered directly from the street in the traditional style of the property. Beyond is a second generous reception room, with useful understairs storage. To the rear is a galley-style kitchen fitted with a range of wood-effect eye and base level units and drawers with preparation surfaces over, together with a sink, oven and gas hob, and space and plumbing for a washing machine. The kitchen is functional but dated and offers clear scope for future refitting.
On the first floor are two good-sized double bedrooms, including a particularly spacious principal bedroom to the front. The accommodation is completed by a generously proportioned bathroom fitted with a bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC, together with a small airing cupboard. Again, the bathroom would benefit from modernisation.
Outside
The property enjoys a surprisingly good-sized rear garden, predominantly paved and planted and currently requiring some attention, with a covered patio area and two useful brick-built outbuildings. Shared pedestrian access with the neighbouring property provides a practical route to the rear for bins.
