This mid-terrace Victorian cottage offers practical two-bedroom living in Selston, presented in good decorative order throughout. The ground floor has a cosy lounge with an open fireplace, a kitchen-diner and a useful utility area, plus a downstairs bathroom — layouts that suit first-time buyers or investors seeking a straightforward rental. Council tax is very low, and mobile signal and broadband speeds are strong.
Outside, the rear garden is larger than is typical for a mid-cottage and benefits from open views, giving room for children, pets or a vegetable plot. There is off-street parking for one car to the front, a useful convenience in this area close to parks and local amenities. Local schools include an Outstanding-rated infant school and several Good-rated primaries and a secondary, which adds appeal for young families.
Buyers should note the property’s age and construction: built before 1900 with solid brick walls (no known cavity insulation) and traditional glazing of unknown install date. The internal floor area is modest — typical for a two-bed cottage — and any buyer wanting more space would need to consider extension or loft conversion subject to permissions. Maintenance on older properties can be higher; the home is presented well now but retains period construction considerations.
Overall this is a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer wanting a characterful home with a generous garden, or an investor after a straightforward tenancy opportunity in an affluent, low-deprivation area with good connectivity.
