Boasting over 2000 square feet of accommodation, this distinctive and
traditional 1930's four bedroom detached house is positioned on Powys Avenue;
a highly sought after and wide road where very little comes onto the market.
The property has incredible potential to be further configured and extended
like it's surrounding properties to accommodate large families and multi -
generational living. The property provides a very rare opportunity for any
discerning individual looking to settle on a very quiet road which provides
highly convenient access to an extensive range of local amenities found in
nearby Oadby town centre and boutique bars, restaurants and independent shops
on Allendale Road in Stoneygate. There is also nearby access to landscaped
open spaces with enjoyable walks through the Leicestershire Gold Course and
adjacent Arboretum providing an excellent link to the wider countryside
beyond.
With instant kerb appeal in the form of a driveway to accommodate at three
vehicles with an integral garage, the property has a warm welcoming through a
deceptively spacious entrance hall with an original stain leaded double glazed
window to the front aspect. On the ground floor, there are two principle
reception rooms, open plan breakfast kitchen and downstairs w/c. To the right
hand side, a front reception room boasts a large double glazed window to the
front aspect with a feature gas fireplace to the centre of the room complete
with original wooden flooring. A further reception room boasts a stunning
feature gas fireplace with stone hearth and surround, a stain leaded double
glazed window to the side aspect and double glazed sliding doors providing
access to a substantial, bright and airy conservatory. To the rear of the
property, there is a well appointed open plan breakfast kitchen. The space is
well configured and boasts an extensive range of eye - level and base units
complete with roll edge laminate work surfaces, space for all relevant
appliances to include a Bosch dishwasher, free - standing stove and a
conveniently positioned utility room to the far right hand side. The utility
room houses the washing machine, further wash facilities and access to the
rear garden. A substantial conservatory provides delightful views onto the
rear garden whilst being a real sun trap all year round. The property is also
equipped with full fibre internet.
A dogleg staircase with stripped balustrades provides access to a spacious
landing with a stunning double glazed stain leaded glass window to the front
aspect that provides access to four well appointed double bedrooms and a three
piece family bathroom with separate w/c. The master bedroom is positioned to
the front of the first floor and includes a large double glazed leaded bay
window to the front aspect allowing an influx of natural light into the space.
Two further double bedrooms include fitted wardrobes whilst a fourth and final
bedroom could very easily accommodate a double bed and relevant free - standing
furniture. The three piece family bathroom comprises an inset sink with
cupboards and drawers under, bath with shower attachment over, walk - in
doorless shower cubicle, a separate airing cupboard with two uPVC double
glazed windows to side and rear elevations. A separate w/c completes the
upstairs accommodation with the added benefit of loft access which we are
informed is part boarded and fully insulated. Obtaining relevant planning
permission, there is potential to extend the property further utilising the
space in the loft.
Outside, a beautiful haven for keen gardeners. With an extensive range of
established trees to include a mature Willow, Silverbirch and flowering
Cherry. This West - facing space has been beautifully landscaped and offers
immense privacy from all the nearby properties. Mainly laid - to - lawn with a
paved patio area, two timber sheds and a shallow pond. The space in the garden
could very easily be utilised to extend the existing dwelling however this
option has not been explored by the current owners and would be subject to all
necessary consents.
Properties on this particular road are incredibly hard to come by. Early
viewing is essential to truly appreciate the charm, character and potential
the house has to offer.

Vendor comments:
" Our family have loved living here for the last 30 years with many cherished
memories created in a home where the layout brings us together whilst allowing
for privacy. I know future owners will enjoy it just as much as we have. We
love the quiet but central location and the nearby Allendale Road shopping
area is useful if we need to pop out for something, with a great selection of
independent café’s, bars and shops. Walking directly onto the golf course and
into the countryside beyond is a delight throughout the year. "
