This mid-terrace Victorian home on Harrison Street offers a straightforward, affordable route into Derby’s housing market. With two double bedrooms, an open-plan lounge/diner and a low-maintenance rear garden, the property suits a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking immediate rental potential. No upward chain makes a quick sale possible.
Built around 1900–1929, the house benefits from gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and an EPC rating of C. At about 679 sq ft the rooms are compact but useable; the open-plan living area provides a flexible social hub with stairs to the first floor. Practical local amenities, strong public transport links and proximity to Derby University, the hospital and city centre add everyday convenience.
There are clear improvement opportunities: the property likely has solid brick walls with no installed insulation and would benefit from upgrades to improve energy efficiency and long-term running costs. On-street parking only and the property’s location in a higher-crime, more deprived area are material considerations for buyers. Overall this is an affordable, conventional terrace with good rental and first-home potential, provided buyers factor in modest modernisation and security measures.
