A traditional two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace in Chester Green, offered with no upward chain and vacant possession. The house sits close to Derby city centre and public transport, making it an easy choice for first-time buyers or landlords seeking a straightforward rental in a well-connected area. The property is freehold, gas central heated with a compact rear garden and comfortable room sizes across two storeys.
Internally you'll find a lounge/diner, galley kitchen and rear garden on the ground floor, with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom above. The kitchen is functional but dated and would benefit from modernization; overall the house presents clear scope to add value through cosmetic refurbishment and improved insulation. Double glazing is fitted but predates 2002 and external walls are solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the area records higher crime levels and the property sits in a medium flood-risk zone. Council tax is very low, broadband and mobile signals are good, and local schools include several rated Good and one Outstanding. This is a pragmatic purchase for someone prioritising location and rental or resale potential over a turnkey finish.
