This Victorian semi-detached house on Market Street, Draycott, offers a straightforward, affordable entry into village living. With gas central heating, double glazing and a newly fitted kitchen, the property is ready for immediate occupation while retaining period charm such as high ceilings and an original fireplace. Sold with no upward chain, it suits first-time buyers and investors seeking a manageable project with rental or resale potential.
Accommodation includes a lounge, separate dining room, two first-floor bedrooms, a large bathroom and a useful attic room on the second floor. The layout provides practical living space across approximately 883 sq ft, and the loft room adds flexible space for storage or occasional use. Council Tax is low (Band A). Broadband speeds are fast and transport links to Long Eaton, Derby and the M1 are convenient.
The rear garden is enclosed but currently un-landscaped and will require work to become a usable outdoor space. The property is of solid brick construction with no confirmed cavity insulation, so buyers should consider potential heating and insulation improvements. Some rooms show evidence of needing updating beyond the new kitchen — this is reflected in the guide price and offers scope to add value.
Overall this freehold home is a practical, characterful option for buyers wanting village life with easy regional access. It is particularly appealing to first-time buyers or investors prepared to carry out modest cosmetic improvements and garden landscaping to maximise its potential.
