Location
Leicester is a major East Midland's city lying to the east of the M1 Motorway at Junctions 21 & 22 with Junction 21 being the link with the M69 Motorway accessing easily into the West Midlands. The city has, historically, been known for the hosiery and footwear industries although, more recently, warehousing and distribution has become a major employer alongside the motorway junction. The property occupies a frontage position to the south eastern side of Equity Road just off Narborough Road (A46) in an established residential area made up predominantly of Victorian terraced housing. Equity Road is a one-way street with traffic travelling in an easterly direction incorporating residents' priority car parking and lying approximately 1½ miles south-west of Leicester City Centre. The location is highly accessible as Narborough Road is a major arterial route and has good public transport facilities. The Narborough Road frontage is also made up of retail units interspersed with bars and restaurants which serve this extensive and densely populated residential area. Many of the properties in the vicinity have been converted to flats particularly targeted at the student market because of the proximity to the De Montfort University campus. It is also convenient for Leicester Royal Infirmary and both the King Power Stadium and Welford Road Rugby ground.
