This neat three-bedroom semi-detached home in Spondon offers compact, practical living with a larger-than-expected rear garden — ideal for first-time buyers or young families wanting outdoor space. The property is freehold, built in the 2003–2006 period, and benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and a C EPC rating, keeping running costs reasonable.
Inside, a dual-aspect lounge with a central fireplace and a fitted kitchen/diner provide comfortable day-to-day living; the ground-floor bathroom and three well-proportioned bedrooms suit a growing household. The front yard is low-maintenance, while the rear garden features an elevated patio and lawn for children or entertaining.
There is scope to create off-road parking by removing the front fence, and a drop kerb is already in place. Practical positives include very low council tax (Band A) and good local transport links to the A52, M1 and Derby city centre.
Be realistic about the location: the area records above-average crime and is classified as very deprived, which may concern some buyers and could affect resale. The home is small at about 656 sq ft, so space is limited compared with larger family houses. Overall, this is a sensible, affordable entry-level home with outdoor potential but situational drawbacks to weigh carefully.
