With pedestrian access to both sides, an iron security gate leads down the left hand side, past the main entrance and round to a charming south facing and extremely private patio style rear garden. There is a brick store and a gardeners wc behind the garage and a timber storage shed.

THE AREA

.
Fir Tree Close is a highly desirable cul-de-sac just off Leicester Road, close to the border with Knighton and a short walk from Knighton Park. Being very convenient for a number of local shops including a Sainsbury’s supermarket as well as a full range of amenities in Wigston Town Centre. There is a regular bus route to both Wigston and Leicester and the A563 outer ring road is just a short drive away giving access to Fosse Retail Park and the motorway network.
Wigston is a South Leicestershire town in the Borough of Oadby & Wigston standing approx. 5 miles south of Leicester city centre. With Knighton forming the northern border and Oadby to the east, the A5199 leaves Wigston to the south providing access to some of the county's most delightful countryside with a number of charming villages nearby. By the middle ages, the village of Wichingstone had become known as Wigston Two Steeples or Two Spires as it was unusually the home of 2 spired churches known today as All Saints & St. Wistans.

The village has grown into a thriving town in recent years with a number of housing developments spreading in all directions around the busy town centre with a choice of Banks, public houses and restaurants, and a comprehensive selection of shops.
Wigston is popular today with local buyers and those from further afield due in part to the extremely good variety of housing stock, varied leisure facilities, its proximity to Leicester, its ease of access to the motorway network and the choice of railway stations allowing travel to London in a little over an hour.
