A spacious period semi-detached house in central Chesterfield, offered chain free following repossession. The property retains many Victorian features — high ceilings, bay window and a fireplace — and includes a cellar and a low-maintenance rear garden. At about 1,447 sq ft, the overall footprint is unusually large for a town property and sits close to the town centre and local schools.
The house requires renovation throughout; the listing notes it "needs renovation" and internal photos show dated decor. This presents clear potential for value-add refurbishment but means buyers should budget for works and confirm the condition of services and structure. Note: there is a public Notice of Offer and the sale is by order of the mortgagees in possession.
Practical positives include double glazing (fitted since 2002 or later), mains gas central heating and freehold tenure. The small plot and low-maintenance garden suit buyers wanting minimal external upkeep, while the cellar adds useful storage or scope for conversion subject to checks and approvals. Be aware the wider area records higher crime levels and the local classification indicates communal-retirement and terraced/flat housing nearby.
Important: the marketing text describes three generous bedrooms and multiple reception rooms, but a supplied data field lists one bedroom. Prospective purchasers should verify the exact layout and accommodation at viewing and in legal searches before offer.
