This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached house sits in a semi-rural pocket of Grassmoor, close to the Five Pits Trail and convenient for Chesterfield, Clay Cross and M1 J29. The layout works for everyday family life: a front reception room, kitchen/diner, ground-floor cloakroom and three bedrooms upstairs. Off-street parking, a decent rear garden and an EV charging point add practical value for modern family living.
Energy features are a standout: seven vendor-owned solar panels plus a 10kWh battery system reduce running costs and help manage bills in this area where council tax is very low. The Worcester Bosch boiler was installed in 2016 and the property benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing (pre-2002 uPVC). The internal floor area is modest (around 731 sq ft) and suits a small family or a buyer seeking a commuter base with low ongoing costs.
The house is in a neighbourhood with higher-than-average crime and local area deprivation; that may influence some buyers’ long-term plans. The property is also small by modern standards and some rooms, notably the third bedroom, are best suited to a child or home office rather than a double bedroom. The living room and kitchen are tidy but would benefit from cosmetic updating for buyers wanting a contemporary finish.
Overall this is a practical, commuter-friendly family home with strong energy credentials and outdoor space for entertaining. Buyers should factor in the modest internal footprint, the area’s social profile, and potential cosmetic updates when considering this offering.
