This chain-free, two-bedroom semi delivers a straightforward entry into the local market — well suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking a rentable property. The house offers two double bedrooms, a light lounge flowing to a dining room, and an enclosed rear garden. Gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/strong mobile signal make the home comfortable and connected from day one.
The property is a period-built semi (circa 1900–1929) with solid brick walls; this gives character but also means loft and wall insulation may be limited. The kitchen and some finishes show age and would benefit from modernization to unlock greater value. EPC band D reflects the current efficiency and is an area for improvement if intending long-term occupation or to raise rental yield.
Location is a clear strength: handy for local shops, bus routes and walkable to Swadlincote town centre, with nearby schools and very good transport links. Council tax band A and freehold tenure keep ongoing costs low. The small plot and modest external space suit buyers wanting low-maintenance outside areas but may disappoint those seeking larger gardens.
Overall this is a practical, affordable home with immediate occupation potential and scope to add value through targeted updating (kitchen, insulation, decorative refresh). Note the mixed local school Ofsted results and the property’s older construction when assessing long-term suitability.
