Highfields Drive, Loughborough

Occupying a generous and well-established plot on the highly sought-after Forest Side of Loughborough, this three-bedroom detached house represents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking for a home with plenty of space and scope to improve.

The ground floor is approached via an entrance hallway with useful understairs storage and access to the principal living accommodation. There are two separate reception rooms, providing flexibility for use as a lounge, dining room, family room or home office. To the rear is a good-sized dining kitchen, with plenty of scope for updating and potentially creating a more contemporary family kitchen and dining space.

The attached garage provides valuable storage and parking provision and, subject to the necessary works and permissions, there appears to be potential to create direct internal access from the house, potentially utilising the existing understairs area.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, together with a family bathroom and a separate WC, providing practical accommodation for a family. The bedrooms offer further scope for modernisation and improvement.

Externally, the property is particularly appealing. It occupies a large established plot with sizeable gardens to both the front and rear, offering considerably more outside space than many modern detached properties. The gardens provide excellent scope for landscaping, entertaining, children’s play space or simply enjoying the privacy and maturity of the surroundings.

The property provides an exciting opportunity for a new owner to modernise and update the accommodation to their own taste, potentially enhancing both the appearance and value of the property in the process. The house has a particularly attractive combination of good-sized accommodation, substantial gardens and an attached garage, making it an appealing proposition for families, downsizers or buyers looking for a project in an established residential location.

Location – Highfields Drive is situated on the popular Forest Side of Loughborough, an established residential area particularly well regarded for its family housing, proximity to Loughborough University and access to local amenities and open spaces. The area is close to a number of schools, including Mountfields Lodge, Holywell Primary and Mountfields County Junior School, while Loughborough University is also within the immediate locality.
Loughborough town centre provides a wide range of shopping, leisure, dining and everyday facilities. The town also benefits from excellent transport connections, with Loughborough railway station providing regular mainline services, including direct trains to London St Pancras, while the M1 is readily accessible via Junction 23. East Midlands Airport is approximately seven miles away.
The location therefore combines the benefits of an established and desirable residential setting with convenient access to the town centre, university, schools, road and rail networks.

Overall, this is a property with excellent potential: a detached three-bedroom home, a substantial established plot, generous gardens and useful garage accommodation, all in one of Loughborough’s most sought-after residential areas.
