Small overall size (~395 sq ft) — compact rooms

This compact two-bedroom mid-terrace on Drewry Lane has been modernised and is offered freehold with no upward chain — a straightforward purchase for investors or first-time buyers seeking rental potential. The property sits in a well-connected part of Derby close to the city centre and Royal Derby Hospital, and benefits from a refitted kitchen, modern bathroom and uPVC double glazing.
Internally the layout is linear and efficient: entrance hall, open-plan lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, two first-floor bedrooms and a newly refitted bathroom. An enclosed rear garden with patio and recent lawn provides an outdoor space that’s rare at this price and size. The EPC C rating and recent updates reduce immediate capital expenditure.
Notable practical points: the home is small (about 395 sq ft) and built as a solid-brick Victorian terrace with assumed lack of cavity insulation — further insulation or energy upgrades may be needed. Local area data indicates very high crime levels and a largely private-renting, student-populated neighbourhood, which affects long-term owner-occupier appeal but supports rental demand. Parking is on-street permit only.
Buyers should also clarify heating fuel and system details: listing references updated central heating, yet separate data records electric room heaters as the main heating source. This should be confirmed before purchase. Overall, this is a low-cost entry or buy-to-let prospect with modern fittings and immediate rental appeal, but expect modest living space and neighbourhood-related drawbacks.
