Summary - 86 BIRCHWOOD LANE SOMERCOTES ALFRETON DE55 4ND
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Single-floor living with large garden, workshops and easy motorway access.
Detached single-storey bungalow on large plot with off-street parking
This two-bedroom detached bungalow on Birchwood Lane offers easy single-floor living with a large private plot and off-street parking. Built in the late 1970s and extending to about 819 sq ft, the home combines low-maintenance exterior space with versatile outbuildings — two workshops and a sun room — suited to hobbies, storage or a home gym.
Inside, a contemporary galley-style kitchen with integrated appliances opens to a dining area; a separate lounge features a focal fireplace and an adjoining conservatory that adds extra living space. Both bedrooms include fitted wardrobes; the property is served by a single shower room. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators, and windows are double glazed (installation date unknown).
Practical positives include freehold tenure, fast broadband, easy motorway access (M1/A38 nearby) and cheap council tax. Local schools and daily amenities are within walking distance, making the location convenient for local errands and family life.
Notable negatives are the single shower room, the property’s location within a deprived area and above-average local crime rates. The house dates from 1976–82 so some buyers may want to budget for future modernisation or updating of mechanicals and finishes. Mobile signal is average.
