Set close to Derby city centre and within walking distance of Derby University, this mid-terrace Victorian house offers straightforward, affordable entry to the local market. The layout includes two larger-than-average double bedrooms, two reception rooms and an extended kitchen/diner — a practical plan for first-time buyers or landlords seeking a reliable rental layout. The property is freehold and offered with no upward chain, so completion can be simpler than newer builds.
The interior is functional but dated: the mid-20th-century galley kitchen will need modernization to meet contemporary standards, and the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated. These points mean some targeted investment will improve comfort and energy efficiency, but they also present clear refurbishment potential and scope to add value. Heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators and windows are UPVC double glazing.
Externally the rear garden is low-maintenance and enclosed, ideal for simple upkeep or small landscaping projects. The plot is small and the house is a mid-terrace, so outdoor space is limited. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting modern working-from-home needs. Council tax is very cheap, and the property has a history of successful lettings, making it suitable for buy-to-let investors as well as first-time purchasers.
Buyers should note the local area has above-average crime and the neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan mix of students and professionals; this underpins rental demand but may not suit everyone. Overall, the house is a practical, budget-friendly opportunity for someone prepared to modernise or continue as a steady rental asset.
