A traditional two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Downing Street offering an affordable entry into South Normanton. The house is vacant and chain-free, with a large open-plan lounge/diner, separate kitchen and two double bedrooms upstairs. Its size (approx. 749 sq ft) and layout suit first-time buyers or landlords seeking a straightforward buy-to-let with immediate let potential.
The property does require modernization: the EPC is currently E (potential C), the solid brick walls appear to have no insulation (assumed), and general cosmetic updating is needed throughout. These are realistic refurbishment tasks that will improve comfort and running costs and could increase value and rental income once completed.
Outside is a good-sized rear patio and garden — a useful private outdoor space for the size of the plot — while parking is on-street only. The location has good transport links (close to the M1 and local train station) and local shops and amenities within walking distance, but the wider area is classified as deprived, which may affect resale speed and tenant demand.
For investors the advert states an estimated rent of £695 pcm (approx. 8.3% gross yield at the current price), making the house potentially income-generating after refurbishment. First-time buyers will find a manageable, low council-tax home in need of sensible updating to personalise and improve energy performance.
