James Sellicks Estate Agents says ..

Positioned on a substantial plot totalling approximately 0.27 acres, a four bedroom, two bathroom detached bungalow thought suitable for further development (subject to the necessary planning consents). The property is located on a quiet cul-de-sac just off Knighton Rise, one of suburban Leicest...

Property Oracle says ..

This four-bedroom, two-bathroom detached property in Sycamore Close, Oadby, presents a mixed bag of attributes. Its location in Oadby is a key strength, given the area’s reputation for good schooling and desirable residential character. Proximity to Leicester provides access to a wider range of amenities and employment opportunities. The property benefits from a large garden, a rarity in more densely populated areas. However, the images reveal that the interior décor is outdated and could benefit significantly from modernisation. While the structure seems sound, potential buyers should factor in refurbishment costs into their overall budget. The absence of precise plot size data from nearby comparable properties presents a challenge when gauging the property’s overall value for money. While the list price of £850,000 appears reasonable in the context of the Oadby market, a thorough survey and updated valuation based on more detailed property information are recommended to ensure the purchase price reflects the specific condition and improvements required. The potential for future appreciation is positive, given the desirable location, but it is crucial to offset the cost of renovations against the current market value before making any purchase decision.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
