This modest semi-detached house offers an accessible entry point to homeownership in NG3. The layout includes a bright front living room, a rear kitchen opening to a private garden, and three bedrooms upstairs — all set on a decent plot with off-street parking. The property is freehold and sits close to green spaces such as Colwick Woods, with good public transport and easy road access to Nottingham city centre.
The home is a practical canvas for a first-time buyer or investor. Period features remain, including a fireplace and cornicing, while double glazing and a gas boiler provide basic comfort. The single bathroom and compact overall size mean living space is limited but functional; the dining area and built-in storage help maximise usable rooms.
Buyers should note material drawbacks honestly: the neighbourhood records very high crime and the wider area is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale and security needs. Walls are solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, and double-glazing install dates are unknown — further energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. The property will suit purchasers prepared to undertake cosmetic updating and targeted improvements to add value.
On balance this house presents an affordable, well-located foundation for personalising a long-term home or creating rental income. Local schools rated Good, nearby amenities, and fast broadband make it practical for families and commuters. Council tax is very low, which helps running costs while renovation plans proceed.
