This chain-free, mid-terraced two-storey home on Ray Street offers straightforward living close to Heanor town centre. The ground floor provides two reception rooms and a modern galley kitchen, while the first floor has two double bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. A good-sized, enclosed rear garden extends the living space outdoors.
Recent practical checks are already in place: a new EICR and gas safety certificate make the house a convenient move-in or rental option. The interior appears recently refreshed with neutral finishes and some new flooring, so minimal immediate work is needed to occupy or let the property.
Notable considerations include an EPC rating of E and the local area’s higher crime level; these are important for buyer budgeting and insurance. Plot and room sizes are typical for an early 20th-century town terrace, and the small front yard offers limited kerb appeal. The property is freehold and council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs.
For first-time buyers this is a manageable, low-entry purchase with straightforward local amenities and schools within walking distance. For investors it's a ready-to-go let with safety checks completed, though the EPC band and area profile should factor into yield and tenant demand assessments.
Overall, the house presents real value through location, a usable garden and recent safety certs, balanced by energy efficiency and neighbourhood considerations that may need addressing over time.
