<p>Owned from new and beautifully presented throughout, this detached three-bedroom home is a genuinely turnkey opportunity in Scraptoft. With a fully landscaped garden, a versatile detached garage and tandem parking for two cars, it is an ideal next step for a first-time buyer looking for space to settle into without an immediate to-do list.</p><p>A central entrance hall creates an inviting first impression, with the living room positioned to the left and the kitchen/diner to the right. The living room is a generous, light-filled space with a relaxed feel, offering plenty of room to unwind or entertain. The ground-floor WC is conveniently positioned to the rear of the hall.</p><p>The kitchen/diner is a particularly sociable room, combining a fitted kitchen with a dedicated dining area and French doors leading out to the garden at the side of the property. The current owners specified upgraded ovens when purchasing the home new. Alongside the fitted dishwasher, there is space for a fridge/freezer and washing machine, making this a practical, well-equipped space for everyday living as well as entertaining.</p><p>Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a comfortable double room with its own en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is another well-proportioned double and currently has freestanding wardrobes, which the owners are happy to leave if required. The third bedroom is presently used as a dressing room, demonstrating its flexibility; it would also make an excellent third bedroom, nursery, home office or hobby room. A family bathroom completes the first floor, while the insulated loft provides useful potential storage space, accessed from the landing. Please note that the loft is not boarded.</p><p>One of the standout features is the sunny, fully landscaped garden. East-facing with an open southern aspect, it enjoys excellent natural light throughout the day. A large decked seating area creates an inviting setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, complemented by a further patio positioned behind the garage. The lawn has been relaid and returfed, while raised sleeper beds are planted with a variety of shrubs and trees, giving the garden an established yet easy-to-maintain feel.</p><p>The driveway provides tandem parking for two cars and leads to a detached single garage with a manual up-and-over door, power and lighting. A personnel door provides useful access directly from the garden. The garage is currently divided by a lightweight, removable partition: the front section remains useful for garage storage, while the rear has been styled as a bar and entertaining area. This is a flexible arrangement rather than a permanent conversion, allowing the buyer to retain the space as it is or easily return the garage to its full original use.</p><p>The owners particularly value the balance of countryside and convenience: local walks and footpaths are close by, with the area offering access to schools and links towards the city. Buyers should make their own enquiries regarding school catchment and admissions.</p><p>A stylish home with considered improvements, sunny outside space and practical everyday features, ready for its next owner to move in and make their own.</p><p><strong>Further details</strong></p><ul><li><p>Tenure: Freehold</p></li><li><p>EPC - Awaited</p></li><li><p>Council Tax: Band D, currently £2,433.56 per annum</p></li><li><p>Local authority: Harborough District Council</p></li><li><p>Heating: Mains gas central heating; boiler last serviced 7 April 2026</p></li><li><p>Broadband: Fibre to the property, currently served by Sky</p></li><li><p>Water: Mains water supply with water meter</p></li><li><p>No estate management charges</p></li></ul>
