The lounge and kitchen-diner provide a straightforward layout for modern living, while the enclosed rear patio and driveway deliver low-maintenance outdoor space and convenient off-street parking. The property is freehold and presented as a practical starter home or buy-to-let with immediate occupation possible.
There is clear potential to add value through cosmetic updating and modest improvements. Room sizes are small-to-average across the 840 sqft footprint, and fitted storage in the main bedroom helps practicality. Energy performance is reasonable (listing indicates EPC around C), and the home benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown).
Buyers should note material local and property factors factually: the area records higher crime and relative deprivation, and the solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation which may limit thermal performance until improved. Internally the property shows dated finishes and will suit someone prepared to modernise or maintain as a simple, low-cost home. Overall this is a sensible, low-maintenance option for first-time purchasers or investors seeking a compact town house near transport links to Nottingham and Derby.
