Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Mere Road, Wigston, Leicester, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges for prospective buyers. The property’s exterior is well-maintained, and the substantial garden is a definite asset. Its location in Wigston is advantageous, with excellent access to local primary schools, including the Outstanding Glenmere Community Primary School, making it attractive to families. The relative proximity to South Wigston and Leicester train stations provides good transport links. However, the interior of the house appears dated and would benefit significantly from modernisation. The wallpaper, fixtures, and fittings showcase an aesthetic that will likely require considerable upgrading. This should be factored into any purchase decision. The lack of precise plot size data and further details on the internal layout and condition of aspects like the kitchen and bathroom make a definitive assessment of value difficult. Overall, the property offers the potential for a comfortable family home but requires investment to bring it up to date. The asking price seems reasonable in the local context, however the need for modernization and absence of detailed information requires more information to establish it as exceptional value.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
