Vendor comments:

“ The flat is in the perfect location - close to Victoria Park, Allandale Road and Queens Road shopping areas. It is is a pleasant 35 minute (approximately) walk to the centre of Leicester. It was a very happy home for me for 10 years before I relocated for work and family. The development has a happy and helpful community feel and is quietly tucked away from the main roads. “
