Extended kitchen-diner offering flexible family living and garden access

This extended three-bedroom semi-detached house sits on a generous corner plot in sought-after Risley, offering particularly spacious outside space and off-street parking with a detached garage. The ground floor has two reception rooms and a large open-plan kitchen-diner that opens to the garden — a practical layout for family life and entertaining.
The home retains traditional features such as a front bay window and period fireplaces, while the kitchen-diner provides a more modern, flexible family hub. Broadband and mobile signal are strong locally, and road and rail links (including J25 of the M1) give easy access to Nottingham, Derby and East Midlands transport hubs.
There is clear potential to personalise and upgrade: the property was built 1950–66 with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation, so loft and wall insulation or other energy improvements may be needed. The house has a single family bathroom and dated elements in parts, so buyers should plan for potential modernisation to suit current standards.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, mains drainage, no recent flood history, and affordable council tax (Band C). Suited to families wanting space and a good village location, it also appeals to buyers seeking a renovation project with scope to add value.
