Set at the quiet terminus of a private cul-de-sac of just five individually conceived homes, this four-bedroom detached bungalow unfolds across just under 1,500 sq ft and is organised around a central hall that acts as a calm spatial anchor. The plan is legible and composed, with a clear distinction between communal and private zones, lending the house a sense of quiet order and generosity. The property is offered chain-free and is presented in excellent decorative condition throughout. At the centre of the home, a newly refurbished kitchen and dining room forms the primary social space, arranged to accommodate both daily use and larger gatherings. Sightlines extend into the adjacent lounge, creating a gentle continuity between spaces, while a discreet utility room sits to the rear, keeping practical functions out of view. The lounge is well proportioned and opens directly into the conservatory, which extends across the rear elevation. This light-filled room mediates between house and garden, offering a flexible setting for dining, reading or cultivation. The bedrooms are positioned along the quieter edges of the plan. The principal bedroom sits to the lower left and is served by a contemporary three-piece en suite. A separate family bathroom is accessed from the central hall. Three further bedrooms are distributed across the footprint: two generous doubles to the right and lower right, and a smaller fourth bedroom close to the hall, suited to use as a study, guest room or nursery. A substantial store room occupies the right-hand side of the plan, offering potential for conversion (subject to the necessary consents) or use as a workshop, studio or further storage. A small lobby to the upper right provides a secondary entrance and a transitional threshold into the bedroom wing, reinforcing the house’s layered spatial sequence. Circulation throughout is intuitive, with doors radiating from the central hall and a clear flow between kitchen, living spaces and garden-facing rooms. The proportions are pragmatic yet generous, providing a flexible canvas for sensitive reconfiguration or contemporary enhancement. Externally, the house is wrapped by a private and well-established garden, with mature planting and shrubbery creating a strong sense of seclusion from neighbouring properties. A sweeping driveway leads to a garage, providing ample off-street parking and storage. Agent notice: The garage has been converted into an additional bedroom so it would not be suitable for storing a vehicle without necessary alterations. The Orchards occupies a quiet, residential position on Scraptoft Lane, on the eastern edge of Leicester. The property sits within a small, established enclave of homes, combining suburban convenience with a village-like atmosphere and easy access to open countryside. The surrounding streets are characterised by detached homes, bungalows, and mature landscaping, giving the area a settled and family-friendly character. Connectivity is strong, with Scraptoft Lane linking directly to Leicester’s Outer Ring Road (A563), providing straightforward access into the city and onward to the M1/M69 motorway network. Regular local bus services connect to the city centre, while Leicester railway station is nearby for national rail links, including London, Nottingham, and Birmingham. Local amenities are within easy reach, including shops, cafés, schools, and community facilities in Scraptoft and neighbouring suburbs such as Thurnby and Evington. The area also benefits from green spaces and nature reserves, offering outdoor leisure and walking opportunities. Overall, the location combines a sense of calm and privacy with practical access to Leicester’s urban conveniences and the wider Leicestershire countryside. Council tax band: E. Tenure: Freehold.
