This three-bedroom semi-detached home in Whitwell offers practical family living on a decent plot with driveway parking. The lounge centres on a solid fuel stove and the dining kitchen provides roomy, everyday space with an integrated hob and oven and a Baxi combi boiler serving central heating and hot water.
The property is freehold, extends to around 948 sq ft and sits in a town-fringe location with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for home working or commuting to nearby business parks and the M1. The consumer unit has been recently upgraded, and the garden is a low-maintenance area that can be left as-is or developed into a more ambitious outdoor space.
There is potential to extend or develop the land, but any planning permission is not confirmed and would need to be sought. Practical considerations include older double glazing (installed before 2002) and the house’s 1930–49 construction, which may mean some elements need updating. The local area scores high on deprivation metrics and has average crime levels — factors to weigh alongside the property’s affordability and practical benefits.
This home suits a growing family or first-time buyers seeking a solid starter house with scope to improve and add value. Viewings will suit buyers comfortable assessing upgrade costs and pursuing planning advice if they wish to expand the footprint.
