Set back from Nottingham Road, this 1930s bay-fronted detached house offers solid bones and clear potential for a growing family. The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen with adjoining garden room and three bedrooms (two doubles), all arranged over approximately 936 sq ft. A south-facing rear garden and ample off-street parking add practical family appeal.
The property is chain-free and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating, but it would benefit from a scheme of modernisation throughout. Walls are original solid brick (likely uninsulated) and the Energy Performance Certificate is grade F, so upgrading insulation, heating efficiency and finishes will substantially improve comfort and running costs.
Practical extras include a carport/garage suitable for storage or motorcycles and a decent sized plot. The location is convenient for local amenities, supermarkets and several well-rated primary and secondary schools, with good road links to the A52 and M1.
Important negatives are clear: the house needs renovation and updating, the EPC is low, and the immediate area records higher crime levels than average. Buyers should allow budget for thermal improvements, internal refurbishment and cosmetic updating to realise the property’s potential.
