This handsome Victorian semi-detached house on Parkside offers a flexible three-bedroom family layout across three storeys, with period detail and far-reaching countryside views. Rooms feel bright and well-proportioned; a living room with multi-fuel stove, a slate fireplace and original Minton-tiled porch add character and warmth. The lower-ground dining kitchen, utility and workshop give practical space for daily family life and hobbies.
Outdoor space is a clear strength: a south-facing rear garden with patio and lawn captures sun and open aspect, ideal for alfresco dining and for children to play. Off-street parking at the front and good broadband and mobile signal make the home convenient for commuters and home-workers. The property is near Belper town centre with shops, rail links and good primary schools.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is solid-brick and likely lacks cavity wall insulation, which can affect running costs and will be relevant if planning energy upgrades. The location has a medium flood risk and local crime levels are reported as high; prospective purchasers should investigate insurance and local safety measures. The plot is modest in size and there is a single shower room, which may influence growing families.
Overall this is a sizeable, characterful family home in a convenient town-centre position with countryside outlooks and strong potential for energy improvements. It will suit families or professionals seeking period features, good living space and outdoor access, while buyers mindful of running costs and local safety should factor those into their decision.
