Summary - 17 Gilcroft Street, SUTTON-IN-ASHFIELD, Nottinghamshire, NG17 NG17 3EL
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Low-maintenance starter with parking and excellent connectivity for first-time buyers.
65% shared ownership with option to buy 100% share
A newly built two-bedroom semi-detached home finished in 2024, offered as 65% shared ownership with the option to buy a 100% share. The house sits on a decent plot with off-street parking and a low-maintenance astroturf rear garden, making it a practical choice for a first-time buyer seeking manageable running costs and minimal exterior upkeep.
Inside, accommodation is straightforward and contemporary: entrance hall with downstairs WC, a medium living room, and a kitchen with space and plumbing for appliances. Two well-proportioned first-floor bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom serve simple family needs. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal are strong practical advantages.
Be clear about the location: the property is in an area of high crime and very high deprivation, and the wider neighbourhood is described as industrious hardship. Local primary schools have Good Ofsted ratings, but the nearest secondary school currently Requires Improvement. Chain-free sale and shared ownership terms suit buyers who need a lower entry price but should factor in long-term costs if purchasing the remaining share.
This home suits a buyer looking for an affordable, low-maintenance starter home with modern fittings and easy transport links. It’s not a quiet, low-crime enclave, so buyers should weigh security and long-term neighbourhood prospects alongside the benefit of an immediate, move-in-ready property.
