About our Oadby branch
The Sheldon Bosley Knight business expanded into Leicestershire with the acquisition of Andrew Granger & Co in 2023.

Why move to Oadby?
Oadby sits on the outskirts of the city of Leicester. With a thriving house market, parks, sports facilities and schools, Oadby – and the area around it – is a firm favourite with young people and families alike.
Featured in the Domesday Book, Oadby has a rich heritage and was once a fashionable district of Leicester amongst factory owners. As well as all its amenities and parks, it is now home to the University of Leicester’s Botanical Garden.
Oadby is highly accessible, thanks to its close proximity to the M1, M6, M42, and major road networks connecting both the north and south. This makes cities like Birmingham, Coventry, London, and Leeds easily reachable. East Midlands airport is also conveniently close, opening up access to overseas destinations whether you travel regularly for work or you’re planning a holiday.
Leicester is on the main train route to Kings Cross St Pancras as well as stations further north. Leicester also offers regular bus services and an extensive cycle network, making travel within the city straightforward.
From primary through to secondary education, there are a range of well-renowned options, both state and private in Oadby and nearby Leicester.
Leicester is also home to colleges of further education and two universities.
Those who love sport will love Oadby. Football, rugby, cricket, tennis and basketball are all important sports activities in and around Oadby and Leicester. Elsewhere there are facilities for sports such as netball and hockey, an athletics track as well as a swimming pool.
Oadby is a predominantly residential area and a lovely place to live with a wide range of housing options available including Edwardian properties, terraced homes, flats and new builds.
Although there are sporting activities in Oadby, for those who want theatres, bars, restaurants and clubs, Leicester is four miles away and easily accessible. As well as museums and galleries, Leicester boast the Curve Theatre, Highcross Leicester and the National Space Centre.
Oadby has a parade of shops and local businesses in the centre of the town including three supermarkets.
Nearby Leicester has a shopping district, home to the 800-year-old market, one of the largest in Europe.
Leicester has a mix of independent boutiques, arcades and numerous places to eat and drink in The Lanes, alongside popular high street stores in the Highcross shopping centre.
