Summary - 9 THE SCHOOL YARD DERBY DE1 3BL
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bedroom apartment with garage, close to Darley Park and city amenities.
Open-plan living kitchen with integrated appliances
A well-presented two-bedroom first / top-floor apartment in a secure gated development, conveniently placed for Derby city centre and Darley Park. The open-plan living kitchen maximises the property’s footprint and benefits from integrated appliances, natural light and modern finishes. Bedroom one includes fitted wardrobes and an en-suite; bedroom two has direct access to a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. A single garage with light and power is included — useful for storage or parking in the city.
This flat is compact (approximately 608 sq ft) and suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking central convenience and low council tax. The long lease (c. 979 years) and chain-free status simplify purchase logistics. Building fabric and services are modern (built c.2003–2006) with double glazing, gas central heating and fast broadband/mobile signals.
Buyers should note material negatives: the wider area is classed as deprived with very high recorded crime levels — important for those prioritising security or family needs. The overall apartment size is small for a two-bedroom and internal room dimensions should be checked before committing. As a leasehold property, additional fees for lease packs or management may apply.
For the right buyer this is a pragmatic, well-equipped city-centre home or rental unit offering immediate occupation, convenient transport links and nearby green space. Viewing is advised to judge space, condition and suitability against personal priorities.
