A three-bedroom semi-detached house set on a large corner plot in the sought-after village of Rolleston on Dove. The property offers two reception rooms, kitchen, first-floor bathroom and an outhouse/utility, with gardens wrapping around the front and side and a single prefab garage. It is sold with vacant possession and freehold tenure.
This is a project opportunity for investors or homebuyers willing to modernise. The mid-20th-century build (c.1950–66) has double glazing installed before 2002, cavity walls likely without insulation and a mains-gas boiler and radiators; the EPC is rated G. Readily achievable improvements include upgrading insulation, replacing older glazing, and cosmetic modernisation to add value — there is also scope to extend, subject to planning.
Important sale terms: the property will be sold at auction on the stated date. Buyers should allow for an auction deposit (5%, minimum £5,000) and a buyer's fee (see legal pack for full amounts and special conditions). Prospective purchasers must review the legal pack and budgets for renovation works before bidding.
Local conveniences enhance appeal: the house is within walking distance of village shops, pubs, primary schools judged Good by Ofsted, and pleasant countryside walks. Good road links via the A38 and A50 provide easy access to Burton-on-Trent, Derby and regional employment centres.
