Summary - 6 POTTER STREET MELBOURNE DERBY DE73 8DW
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Chain-free period residence with large kitchen and private courtyard garden.
Five double bedrooms across three floors, including two en-suites
A rare, substantial period home in the heart of Melbourne, originally built in 1896 as the town bakehouse. The house offers generous, flexible living across three floors with five bedrooms, a high-spec fitted kitchen, two en-suites and a characterful basement lounge — ideal for a growing family looking for space and historic charm. The courtyard-style rear garden with decking provides a private outdoor spot for entertaining without the maintenance of a large plot.
Practical comforts include gas central heating, electric underfloor heating in parts and secondary glazing. The kitchen is a particular selling point, with an island, granite worktops and integrated Bosch appliances. The property is freehold and offered chain free, so a swift move is possible for the right buyer.
Buyers should be aware this is a solid-brick period building with assumed no wall insulation, so upgrading thermal efficiency may be needed. The property is in Council Tax Band F, which will be a material running cost. The basement is a feature but may need inspection for long-term waterproofing or damp-proofing solutions.
Viewing is essential to appreciate the scale, original features and layout quirks — including a second staircase that gives bedroom two direct kitchen access. This house suits a family wanting a distinctive, spacious home to modernise and personalise while retaining strong period character.
