Following a meticulous back-to-brick renovation, this three-bedroom semi-detached house unfolds across two carefully considered storeys on Landseer Road, a short walk from Queens Road. The approach is quietly confident: off-street parking for two cars sits before a façade anchored by a reclaimed 1930s hardwood front door, a tactile reminder of the home’s origins and a prelude to the thoughtful reworking within.

Inside, a wide entrance hall establishes a sense of proportion and calm. From here the plan opens towards the rear, where the house has been reimagined as a generous open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. This is the architectural heart of the home, conceived with a strong emphasis on light and materiality. Carefully placed light wells draw daylight deep into the plan, illuminating bespoke oak cabinetry and quartz worktops. Integrated appliances by Neff sit discreetly within the joinery, while a palette of finishes by Farrow & Ball provides a muted backdrop that accentuates the natural textures of timber and stone.

The space is expansive yet composed, its proportions lending themselves equally to everyday living and entertaining. An open archway connects to a separate living room at the front of the plan, where a generous double-glazed bay window captures the changing daylight and frames views of the street.

To the rear, French doors extend the living space into the garden, offering a verdant outlook across an unusually large plot. The garden itself unfolds in layers: a paved terrace for dining and gathering gives way to a broad lawn, enclosed by mature shrubs and trees that provide an immediate sense of privacy. At the far end, a substantial outbuilding offers potential for further adaptation, whether as a studio, workspace or garden room.

A staircase rises to a wide first-floor landing, from which three bedrooms are arranged. The principal bedroom occupies a peaceful position at the rear, where a large picture window overlooks the garden and fitted wardrobes run along one wall. A second double bedroom sits at the front of the house, while the third room, equally suited as a study or nursery, is carefully proportioned and beautifully presented. These rooms are served by a finely detailed family bathroom, finished with a rainfall shower and a restrained palette of contemporary fittings.

The result is a house that balances architectural clarity with everyday comfort: an elegant reinterpretation of a 1930s home, executed with craftsmanship and a confident sense of design. Homes of this calibre rarely appear within this price bracket, and early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the quality of the renovation.

Location:

Landseer Road lies at the heart of Clarendon Park, one of Leicester’s most characterful residential neighbourhoods, defined by its tree-lined streets and late Victorian and early 20th-century houses. The area has long attracted those drawn to its strong sense of community and its proximity to both the city centre and open green space. Just a short walk from the house, Queens Road forms the social and commercial spine of the neighbourhood, where independent cafés, bakeries and restaurants sit alongside long-established local businesses. Among the most popular neighbourhood institutions are Northern Cobbler, St Martin’s Coffee Shop and Boo, while artisan grocers, bookshops and small boutiques give the street an atmosphere more akin to a village high street than a city suburb. Cultural life is equally close at hand: the leafy expanse of Victoria Park is a short stroll away, offering wide lawns, mature trees and walking routes that connect to the wider network of green space surrounding the city. Landseer Road is also well positioned for access to the academic and medical institutions that anchor this part of Leicester. Both the University of Leicester and De Montfort University are within easy reach, as is the Leicester Royal Infirmary. Leicester railway station lies around a mile to the north, providing regular direct services to London St Pancras in just over an hour, making the area particularly appealing for those seeking a balance between city living and connectivity.
