Spencers Estate Agency says ..

This substantially extended four double bedroom detached family home occupies a corner plot at the head of a sought after Cul-de-Sac position.

Property Oracle says ..

This four-bedroom, two-bathroom detached house located on Brailsford Road in Wigston Fields, Leicester presents a mixed bag of features and requires a balanced assessment. The property’s key strength lies in its location. Wigston Fields enjoys a good reputation, offering a blend of residential tranquility and convenient access to local amenities, schools, and transport links. The proximity to several well-regarded primary schools could be a significant drawcard for families. Commuting to Leicester city centre is facilitated by the relative closeness of South Wigston railway station. However, the specific street may have more limited immediate amenities.

Moving on to the house itself, it presents a reasonable size with four bedrooms, catering to the needs of a family. Although not a substantial plot, the house does benefit from a garden. The interior photographs suggest that some updating or modernisation would be beneficial. The décor is somewhat dated, and a renovation project could substantially enhance the property’s value and desirability. The kitchen and bathrooms appear functional but could be significantly improved. Overall the house is habitable but modernising would be recommended.

The provided list price of £325,000 requires careful consideration. While it appears reasonable given the property’s size and location within the context of the broader housing market in the area, a more precise evaluation is hampered by the absence of detailed plot size information and a lack of clarity about local prices per square foot for similar properties. The need for modernisation must also be factored into any appraisal of its value for money.

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