This two-bedroom mid-terraced house offers a straightforward, affordable entry into Ilkeston with chain-free freehold tenure and immediate possession potential. At around 807 sq ft, the layout includes a ground-floor WC, upstairs bathroom and a rear garden — practical features for a first home or buy-to-let.
Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the property has double glazing and a mains gas combi boiler serving radiators. The construction includes filled cavity walls, and services such as mobile signal and broadband are strong — useful for home working or tenants. Local primary and secondary schools with Good Ofsted ratings are within reach and everyday shops and bus links are nearby.
The house requires some modernisation and improvement to reach its potential: cosmetic updating is needed throughout and there is limited curb appeal. The plot is small and the area is in a more deprived locality, which may affect long-term resale values. Council tax and running costs are low, making this a budget-friendly ownership option.
Overall this is a pragmatic purchase for first-time buyers seeking an affordable, chain-free starter home or for investors looking for a straightforward rental opportunity. Viewings and the available video tour are recommended to assess scope for refurbishment and layout suitability.
