A compact two-bedroom mid-terraced house offering a straightforward, low-maintenance starter home close to local shops and regular bus routes to Nottingham and Derby. The ground floor has a front lounge and a rear kitchen-diner with practical storage beneath the stairs; upstairs are two bedrooms and a shower room. The property is sold freehold and chain free, so it suits buyers wanting a quick, uncomplicated move.
Outside, the property benefits from a small, enclosed rear yard with paved seating, two timber stores and a tarmac driveway with an additional allocated parking space nearby. These practical external features reduce upkeep and add useful storage for everyday family or commuter life.
The house is serviceable but will reward modest investment: period solid-brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, internal finishes show wear and some updating would modernise the layout and improve comfort. The local area has higher crime and relative deprivation, which buyers should consider alongside the property’s commuter links and low council tax. Overall, this is a sensible option for first-time buyers or small-scale investors seeking an affordable, ready-to-occupy home with clear potential to add value.
