Elegantly situated amidst a distinguished treelined residential address, this
property captivates with instant kerb appeal. Unassuming in its exterior, the
residence unfolds across three floors, boasting an expansive floorplan
exceeding 1800 square feet. Cleverly extended to cater to multi - generational
living, this home stands as a testament to thoughtful design. Recently
subjected to a comprehensive refurbishment programme, this property seamlessly
blends modern amenities with potential for further extension and
configuration. Notably, the home benefits from approved planning permission
for both single and two - storey rear extensions as of September 2023 (ref:

room.
Upon entry through the original wooden - frame door, the charm extends from the
entrance porch to the deceptively spacious hallway. To the left, an impressive
principle reception room bathed in natural light from double - glazed leaded
windows, featuring an Artel pellet fireplace, bespoke shelving, oak - hardwood
flooring, and French timber doors opening to the South - facing rear garden. To
the rear, a well - appointed fitted kitchen equipped with underfloor heating
boasts a five - ring gas cylinder hob, concealed extractor hood, large Belfast
sink and ample storage, leads seamlessly to a utility room and a creatively
repurposed double garage, now a fully equipped home gym and separate WC,
complete with underfloor heating presenting versatility and potential for
alteration to allow for multi - generational living.
Ascending to the first floor, the landing provides access to two double
bedrooms and a modern fitted family bathroom. The master bedroom, with dual
aspect windows, stylish pendant lighting, and a second Artel pellet fireplace,
includes a large walk - in dressing room with fitted wardrobes and a concealed
three piece en - suite, benefitting from underfloor heating also. The second
double bedroom boasts dual aspect double - glazed leaded windows complete with
bespoke shutter blinds and generous space for free - standing furniture. A
second flight of stairs with a large glass front and velux skylights
overlooking Shirley Avenue itself reveals two additional bedrooms, one with
three sets of velux skylights, exposed wooden beams, and plush wool carpets,
and the other configured as a home office with laminate flooring, complemented
by a three - piece family bathroom, again, featuring underfloor heating. To the
rear, an established and private South - facing garden includes an extensive
range of mature trees acting as a haven for wildlife, contrasts with the
driveway at the front, comfortably accommodating two vehicles.
Properties of such calibre in the immediate vicinity are consistently sought -
after, making early viewing imperative to fully appreciate the refined
finishes and lifestyle this home affords.

Vendor comments:
" This house has felt like home since I moved in. I made a few renovations
which have really improved the space and functionality of the house to include
a walk - in dressing room and en - suite, a further downstairs w. c and converted
the garage into a home gym. I have added underfloor heating to the kitchen,
utility, en - suite and top - floor bathroom as well as bespoke shutter - blinds
which feature throughout the whole house. Two Artel pellet fireplaces are very
useful in the winter months and I particularly like the bespoke fitted
shelving bookcase in the front living room. The road is quiet with friendly
neighbours whilst also providing really convenient access to Allendale Road
with it's extensive range of amenities alongside nearby Oadby town centre. "
