INTRODUCTION

.
Conveniently located in a small cul-de-sac on the popular Meadows development, close to the centre of the desirable South Leicestershire town of Wigston, this skilfully extended, much improved 3 bedroom detached family bungalow stands on a generous plot with gardens to 3 sides, off road parking for 3 cars and a brick-built single garage..
Benefiting from uPVC double glazing and gas central heating the property briefly comprises: An entrance hallway with a guest wc off, a refitted kitchen, a small ante-room housing the boiler and leading to bedroom 3 which has been used as an office space, a large lounge/ dining room with sliding doors into the conservatory; an inner hallway leading to a further 2 double bedrooms and a re-fitted shower room.

THE ACCOMMODATION

.
This individually designed detached bungalow has been extended and improved to create a deceptively spacious 3 bedroom family home in an extremely popular location,
Standing behind a block paved frontage the bungalow is entered through a double glazed door to the side of the property, underneath the carport, into the entrance hall which provides access to the living accommodation. A guest w.c. to the right, comprising a toilet and wash hand basin and a small storage room/dressing room housing the central heating boiler leads to bedroom 3 which has more recently been used as a work from home space with a window overlooking the garden. To the left, the kitchen has been re-fitted with a range of base and wall units with modern shaker style fronts and built in appliances including an oven and microwave, and a gas hob.
At the end of the hall there is a large lounge/dining room measuring an enviable 24ft 9in by 16ft with almost full width French doors providing views of the garden and access into the conservatory. The double glazed conservatory has floor to ceiling windows to 2 sides with sliding doors providing views of the garden and access onto the decked patio area.

A door leads off the lounge into an inner hallway with doors into: bedroom 1, a large double room with a range of fitted furniture and windows to 2 sides, and bedroom 2, another double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a window to the front.
A re-fitted “wet room” style shower room comprising a toilet, sink and walk-in shower enclosure with a plate glass screen completes the accommodation.

OUTSIDE

.
The gardens have been designed with easy maintenance in mind and are arranged on 3 sides of the bungalow.
The frontage has been mainly block paved to provide hard standing for 2 vehicles and direct access to the brick-built detached garage with an electric up and over door, and to the adjacent drive-through carport which has a pedestrian door into the garage. There is a gravel border and mature shrubbery hedging screening the side garden from the street. A block-paved courtyard area behind the garage could be used for additional parking if required and has a pedestrian gate into the rear garden. The enclosed rear garden sweeps from the back, round to the side. There are decked and paved patio areas with a synthetic lawn for easy maintenance and has been fully fenced with mature well-stocked borders.

THE AREA

.
Brington Close is a small cul-de-sac on the popular Meadows development with local shops around the corner on Kelmarsh Avenue. Convenient for schools and town centre amenities and close to public transport links.
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.
