Summary - Carrington Street, Derby DE1 2BS
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Well-presented apartment with long lease and parking permits ideal for new buyers.
Two double bedrooms with master en suite
Open-plan living area with Juliet balcony
Long lease: 245 years remaining
Off-street parking via two council permits
616 sq ft — average-sized apartment
Very high local crime levels
Area classed as very deprived; amenity-rich city centre
This first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a practical city-centre base for first-time buyers or a straightforward buy-to-let. The open-plan living/kitchen leads to a Juliet balcony that brings light into the 616 sq ft layout, while the master bedroom benefits from an en suite and there is a separate family bathroom.
Practical points add to the appeal: a long lease of 245 years, off-street parking available via two council permits, and mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators. The property sits on a quiet street yet remains within easy walking distance of Derby’s shops, restaurants and transport links — useful for commuters or renters.
Buyers should note material neighbourhood factors: recorded crime levels are very high and the wider area is classified as very deprived. Parking is by council permit rather than dedicated private bays, and additional leasehold-related fees (lease packs, admin) may apply. Lease details are still being compiled, so expect standard leasehold costs.
Overall this is a sensible, well-presented starter home or rental opportunity that combines modern apartment living with long-lease security. Those prioritising low local crime or a more affluent neighbourhood should look elsewhere, but buyers seeking affordable city-centre access and rental potential will find genuine value here.
