Set on Latimer Street, this three-bedroom semi-detached home combines period character with practical modern updates. The bright lounge and versatile conservatory extend living space, while a fitted kitchen and modern ground-floor bathroom make day-to-day life straightforward. At around 761 sq ft, the layout suits first-time buyers seeking a manageable home with scope to personalise.
Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms provide family flexibility or room for a home office. The enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden is private and easy to care for. On-street parking is available and there appears to be potential for off-road parking subject to permissions.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing and very low council tax. The property is well placed for local shops, bus links and commuter routes into Derby, with several Ofsted-rated “Good” primary and secondary schools nearby.
Be realistic about investment needs: the house sits in a very deprived area with above-average recorded crime, and the solid brick walls likely lack modern insulation — further works may be needed to improve energy efficiency. Overall, this is an affordable, compact family home or starter purchase with clear potential for improvement and personalisation.
