Summary - 62 MARKEATON STREET, DERBY DE1 1DW
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Compact period property with courtyard garden and strong rental potential.
No onward chain, freehold three-bedroom mid-terrace
A freehold three-bedroom mid-terrace offered with no onward chain, positioned minutes from Derby city centre and the One Friar Gate Campus. The house has two reception rooms, an extended open-plan kitchen/diner with skylight and patio doors, plus a dry cellar—features that suit both first-time buyers seeking space and investors wanting a rental-ready layout. The private courtyard garden overlooks Markeaton Leisure Garden, providing an unexpected outside aspect for an inner-city property.
Practical points are clear: the property is solid-brick Victorian construction (c.1900–1929) with double glazing and gas central heating. The accommodation is compact overall (approx. 808 sq ft) but well laid out across five principal rooms and benefits from modern bathroom fittings and kitchen extensions. It currently has tenants in situ, which may suit investors wanting immediate income but will affect vacant possession timing for owner-occupiers.
Known drawbacks are stated plainly. The immediate area is classified as very deprived with a higher local crime level; buyers should consider local services and security. The house may need updating in places—there are period elements and signs suggesting modernization or damp-management could be required, and walls are likely uninsulated. Buyers should verify measurements, services, and check for any required remedial work before committing.
