Summary - 198 DERBY ROAD ILKESTON DE7 5FB
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Extended ground floor, driveway, carport and private rear garden with far reaching views.
Double height bay front typical 1930s character and proportions
A traditional 1930s bay‑fronted semi with extended ground floor living, generous driveway and covered carport — practical for a first home or young family. The layout offers a bright bay sitting room, separate dining and a rear sitting area that opens onto a private, tiered garden with patio, lawn and raised deck for entertaining.
The property benefits from gas central heating via a combi boiler, double glazing and a partially boarded loft. Off‑street parking for several cars and a covered carport are strong everyday conveniences, while first‑floor windows deliver far reaching views across the surrounding area.
There are some areas to consider: the house is solid brick (typical of its age) and likely lacks modern wall insulation, so thermal upgrades would improve comfort and running costs. Local crime is reported above average for the area, and while the accommodation is roomy, there is one main bathroom serving three bedrooms which may be limiting for some buyers.
Overall this is a well‑proportioned, characterful family home in an accessible Ilkeston location close to shops, transport links and good primary and secondary schools. It suits buyers seeking a practical, character property with potential to modernise energy performance and personalise the interior.
