Upstairs there are 2 good sized double bedrooms, a single room currently used as an office and a nicely re-fitted bathroom

THE ACCOMMODATION

.
Located on a desirable road close to the border with West Knighton in the popular South Leicestershire town of Wigston, 24 Bradgate Drive has been imaginatively re-modelled, extended and improved to create a beautifully presented family home convenient for local shops, schools and leisure facilities and being close to public transport routes.
The frontage is mainly of a tar-mac construction providing hard standing for 2 cars with a driveway leading down the side of the house providing access to the single, brick garage and the rear garden.

.

.
The hall has been extended forwards and has ample cupboard space for coats and shoes etc.
A door opens into the extremely spacious “L” shaped open plan living/dining room with wood flooring, a chimney breast with a wood burning stove, a bay window to the front and French doors leading into the garden room. The former conservatory has had a solid insulated roof installed, a radiator added for year round use and is used by the current owners as a dining room. The kitchen has been enlarged and fitted with a range of base and wall units with some integrated appliances and space for white goods. A door leads out of the kitchen and into the garden room.

.

.
The staircase rises to the first floor landing which has a useful over-stairs cupboard and provides access to the upstairs rooms.
Bedroom 1 has a bay window to the front and a range of fitted furniture. The second room is a similar size and also has a range of fitted furniture. Bedroom 3 is a generously sized single bedroom with a window to the front and is currently used as an office.
The re-fitted family bathroom with a modern white suite comprising a toilet, sink and bath with glass screen and shower over completes the accommodation.

OUTSIDE.

.
The gardens are an important feature of the property. Sitting on a very generous plot, the front provides standing for 2 cars with a driveway leading down the side of the house providing access to the garage and the rear garden.
The long, fenced rear garden has a patio area behind the house, a long lawn and a second decked area at the bottom.

THE AREA.

.
Bradgate Drive lies on a popular development built in approx. 1958, extremely convenient for local schools and amenities and very close to the border of West Knighton.
Wigston is a South Leicestershire town in the Borough of Oadby & Wigston standing approx. 5 miles south of Leicester city centre. With Knighton forming the northern border and Oadby to the east, the A5199 leaves Wigston to the south providing access to some of the county's most delightful countryside with a number of charming villages nearby. By the middle ages, the village of Wichingstone had become known as Wigston Two Steeples or Two Spires as it was unusually the home of 2 spired churches known today as All Saints & St. Wistans.

The village has grown into a thriving town in recent years with a number of housing developments spreading in all directions around the busy town centre with a choice of Banks, public houses and restaurants, and a comprehensive selection of shops.
Wigston is popular today with local buyers and those from further afield due in part to the extremely good variety of housing stock, varied leisure facilities, its proximity to Leicester, its ease of access to the motorway network and the choice of railway stations allowing travel to London in a little over an hour.
