Affordable entry-level home with garden and driveway close to employment hubs.
Chain-free two-bedroom semi-detached house
A chain-free, two double bedroom semi-detached house offering an affordable entry into Derby’s housing market. The property has a driveway, private rear garden and straightforward layout across two floors — ideal for a first-time buyer wanting a manageable project close to local employment at the Sinfin Rolls-Royce site.
The home includes a lounge/diner, compact kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and two generous first-floor bedrooms. Double glazing and a mains-gas boiler with radiators are in place, and there is scope to enlarge the rear subject to planning permission (STNPP). The plot is small but private, and the property’s mid-20th-century solid-brick build gives a sound base for cosmetic updating.
Buyers should note the surrounding area scores high for crime and is in a very deprived ward — this affects resale potential and suitability for some purchasers. The home may need modernisation to meet contemporary standards (kitchen, bathroom, decorative work), and some services/appliances have not been tested. Council tax costs are very low, and excellent mobile signal and fast broadband are positives for commuters.
