Quiet cul‑de‑sac three-bed with south‑westerly garden and renovation potential.
Three bedrooms with traditional layout and period features
This traditional 1930s semi-detached house on a quiet Borrowash cul-de-sac offers a ready-to-personalise three-bedroom layout and immediate vacant possession with no upward chain. Rooms are well proportioned for the size, with a generous dining kitchen and an Edwardian-style lounge with period features and hardwood flooring. The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating, a block‑paved driveway and a private south‑westerly rear garden that catches afternoon sun.
The house does need updating in areas and is presented as a renovation opportunity — ideal for buyers who want to add value by modernising kitchens, bathrooms and energy performance. The construction is solid brick with no known cavity insulation, so improving insulation and replacing dated fittings are sensible projects to reduce running costs and increase comfort.
Practical positives include off‑street parking, low local crime, excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, and easy access to local shops, schools and transport links (M1, stations and East Midlands Airport within reach). Council Tax band A keeps ongoing costs low. The layout will suit first‑time buyers or small families seeking a character home they can adapt over time, provided they accept some renovation work is required.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the garden privacy, room proportions and scope to upgrade. Buyers looking for a turnkey move should note the property is not fully modernised and will require investment to achieve a contemporary finish.
