Summary - 60 RIDDINGS STREET DERBY DE22 3US
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable project near Royal Derby Hospital, ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
No onward chain — quick sale potential
This two-bedroom mid-terrace offers an affordable, chain-free entry into Derby’s housing market. The property’s Victorian brick shell and simple layout—lounge, dining room, compact kitchen and first-floor bathroom—give a clear canvas for a first-time buyer or investor to add value.
Positioned close to the Royal Derby Hospital and Derby city centre, the house benefits from excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and local amenities within walking distance. The low-maintenance rear garden and small plot reduce outdoor upkeep while keeping running costs low; council tax is described as very cheap.
The house is structurally straightforward (solid brick construction) but requires modernization throughout: dated interiors, worn doors and flooring, and likely limited wall insulation. These are common for properties of this era and present an opportunity to modernise for improved comfort and energy efficiency. There is no chain, so a quick purchase and refurbishment programme is possible.
Be candid: the immediate area scores as deprived with a high local crime level. That affects resale and rental desirability and should be weighed against the low purchase price and strong rental demand near the hospital. A buyer seeking a project or an investor targeting lettings will find clear potential, but budgeting for updates and security improvements is essential.
