Compact starter home with garage and courtyard garden near shops and university.
Two-bedroom semi-detached freehold, approx 512 sq ft
A compact two-bedroom semi-detached home in the heart of Derby city centre, offered for sale by the Modern Method of Auction. The property benefits from a garage, courtyard garden, gas central heating and double glazing, making it a practical starter home or buy-to-let in a well-connected, student-and-professional neighbourhood.
This small property (approximately 512 sq ft) provides a ground-floor lounge, separate kitchen and cloakroom, with two bedrooms and a shower room upstairs. Its freehold tenure and city-centre location deliver convenience and rental appeal, while a shared driveway gives direct access to the garage.
Buyers should note material auction terms: completion is via a 56-day Reservation Period, a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600 inc VAT) applies, and a Buyer Information Pack fee is payable. The area shows higher-than-average crime and local deprivation indicators, which may influence families or long-term buyers. The property’s small size and modest plot mean limited expansion potential, though it suits first-time purchasers or investors seeking low-maintenance central accommodation.
An early inspection is recommended to assess condition and rental potential. Prospective buyers considering a mortgage should verify suitability with their lender before bidding and review the full Buyer Information Pack prior to purchase.
