A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Edwardian residence with annexe and development potential in one of Leicester’s most sought-after locations. Occupying a prominent position on Western Park Road, directly opposite the picturesque Western Park, this impressive and characterful home—historically known as “The Firs”—offers a unique blend of period elegance, versatile living accommodation, and exciting future potential. Dating back to the early 20th century, with origins recorded as early as 1910–1915 , the property retains a wealth of architectural charm while benefiting from thoughtful modernisation over the years. The principal five-bedroom home is an attractive double-fronted property, showcasing classic Edwardian design with striking red brickwork, decorative stone detailing, and an elegant arched central entrance. Symmetry and proportion are key features, with large bay-style windows allowing natural light to flood the interior. Inside, the accommodation is both generous and well-balanced, comprising:

• A welcoming central hallway with staircase rising to the first floor

• Three spacious reception rooms, each offering excellent proportions and period features including fireplaces and large windows

• A well-appointed kitchen leading through to a formal dining room—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining

• Additional ground floor spaces offering flexibility for modern family life

Upstairs, the property provides five well-sized bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, a second double bedroom, also with en-sutite alongside a family bathroom and additional WC. The layout lends itself perfectly to growing families, with good separation between bedrooms and ample natural light throughout. Over the years, the house has been sympathetically improved, including updated bathrooms, en-suite additions, a rewiring programme, and central heating upgrades —ensuring comfort while preserving its original charm. A standout feature of this property is the separate two-bedroom annexe, offering exceptional versatility. With its own reception space, kitchen, and bathroom facilities, it is ideal for:
