A newly modernised two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage tucked on Church Lane, Horsley Woodhouse. The house has been updated throughout — new kitchen, bathroom, flooring, windows and heating — so it’s ready to move into with vacant possession and no onward chain. The open-plan ground floor feels larger than the footprint suggests thanks to an extended layout and split-level dining/kitchen arrangement.
Practical day-to-day living is straightforward: off-street parking to the front, a low-maintenance rear courtyard with useful store/garage, and fast broadband plus excellent mobile signal. The property sits on the village fringe with attractive front views over greenery and easy access to local amenities, primary schools and short road links to Belper, Derby and Nottingham.
Know the limitations: room sizes and ceiling heights are modest — Bedroom Two and some rooms are small and ceiling heights are lower than modern new-builds. The plot is compact and the garden is a paved, low-maintenance courtyard rather than a larger lawned garden. As a terraced cottage the layout is characterful but unconventional, so buyers should view to ensure the plan meets their needs.
This is a strong proposition for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance starter home or rental with minimal immediate works. It combines cottage character (exposed beams, rustic features) with modern fixtures and a council tax band that is very cheap, making running costs favourable.
