A substantial four-bedroom semi-detached home with strong period character, offered chain free and ready for updating to modern tastes. The house extends to about 1,300 sq ft across three floors and retains original features such as a Minton-tiled entrance and beamed living room ceiling, giving scope to create a striking family home.
Located close to Castle Donington town centre, the property sits within easy walking distance of shops, schools and regular transport links including the Skylink bus to Nottingham, Derby and East Midlands Parkway. A mature rear garden and off-street parking add practical family appeal, while double glazing and a modern Worcester boiler provide a base level of comfort.
The house does require some modernization and improvement to reach its full potential. Walls are solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation and cosmetic updating has been started only to a basic standard. The driveway width is limited (maximum 6'6") and the rear garden boundary is defined by a greenhouse; the photo shows additional land that is not included in the sale.
This home will suit buyers seeking character and space in a small town setting — families wanting proximity to good local schools, or buyers keen to add value through sympathetic refurbishment. Council Tax Band C, freehold tenure and no onward chain simplify purchase for a committed buyer.
