Description

Situated within the iconic Wheatsheaf Works Building, this beautifully presented second-floor apartment seamlessly blends original character features with modern convenience, creating a unique and stylish home in the heart of Leicester.

Accessed via a secure fob entry and intercom system, the building also benefits from lift access to the second floor. The apartment itself offers deceptively spacious accommodation and briefly comprises an inviting entrance hall with useful storage cupboard, leading through to an impressive open-plan living and dining area. Multiple large windows and skylights flood the space with natural light while also providing excellent ventilation, enhancing the bright and airy atmosphere throughout. The kitchen area is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, offering ample storage and workspace.

The generous double bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and additional windows, while a contemporary bathroom suite serves the accommodation.

The property forms part of the prominent Grade II Listed Wheatsheaf Works Building, dating back to 1891. This iconic red-brick industrial landmark played a pivotal role in Britain's shoe manufacturing industry during the early 20th century and was sympathetically converted into a collection of modern apartments in 2015, carefully preserving its rich heritage and distinctive architectural character.

Residents also enjoy access to a communal courtyard on the same level as the apartment, featuring a well-maintained decked seating area with attractive planters, providing a unique outdoor space to relax and socialise.

An ideal opportunity for first-time buyers, professionals, or investors seeking a characterful home within one of Leicester's most historic and sought-after developments.
