Silverwood Close
Leicester

A traditional 1960s three-bedroom detached home, positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac off the highly regarded Uppingham Road. Boasting uninterrupted field views to the rear, the property has been meticulously maintained for over 20 years, offering an exceptional standard of living while providing substantial scope for extension and reconfiguration, subject to the necessary consents. The property is well positioned with immediate access to the sought-after suburbs of Evington, Thurnby, and Scraptoft, as well as an array of local amenities.

The property’s kerb appeal is immediately evident, with its commanding position at the end of the cul-de-sac complemented by off-road parking for at least two vehicles and a garage, which could be adapted to suit contemporary needs. Upon entering, the wide and welcoming entrance porch leads into a generously proportioned hallway, featuring oak flooring and a neatly positioned WC for added convenience. To the rear of the home, the open-plan living and dining room is bathed in natural light, thanks to double-glazed sliding patio doors that frame a leafy aspect of the landscaped South-facing garden. The combination of stripped oak flooring and a coal-effect gas fire creates a sophisticated yet cosy ambience. The breakfast kitchen is thoughtfully designed, with an extensive range of wall and base units, ample worktop space, and plumbing provisions for essential appliances. A discreet pantry offers additional storage, while doors leading to the side passage and rear garden enhance the practicality of the layout. This area holds significant potential for extension or reconfiguration to create a larger, contemporary kitchen-diner.

The first floor is equally impressive, with a spacious landing providing access to three well-presented bedrooms. Two of these are generously sized doubles, both benefitting from unspoiled views over the adjoining fields. The third bedroom, a versatile single, is currently utilised as a home office. All bedrooms are serviced by a well maintained three-piece family bathroom, completing the accommodation.

Externally, the south-facing rear garden is a true highlight. Impeccably maintained, it features a manicured lawn bordered by mature trees and shrubs, offering a high degree of privacy. Two distinct patio areas provide idyllic settings for outdoor dining or relaxation. To the front, the driveway accommodates at least two vehicles, while a neatly tended lawn adds to the property’s overall charm.

This home represents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a home that combines timeless character with modern potential, situated in a highly desirable location. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the exceptional quality, setting, and potential this property has to offer. Priced competitively for an immediate sale.
