Summary - 71 Boatmans Close, Ilkeston, Derbyshire DE7 8LT
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Small single-storey home with driveway and garage, ideal for renovation projects.
Chain-free two-bedroom detached bungalow in quiet cul-de-sac
A compact two-bedroom detached bungalow set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, offered chain-free and ready for renovation. The plot is modest but practical, with a driveway, detached garage and a small garden — ideal for someone looking to downsize or create a low-maintenance home.
The property was built in the early 1990s, has double glazing (installation date unknown) and a mains-gas combi boiler serving radiators. The living room has good natural light from a large front window; overall internal space is limited at around 527 sq ft, so the layout suits uncomplicated single-storey living rather than large-family use.
Important practical notes: the bungalow requires updating throughout, with visible cracks in plasterwork and dated fixtures; buyers should budget for renovation works. The area records higher-than-average crime and local deprivation indicators, which may concern some purchasers. On balance, the low asking price, freehold tenure, no onward chain and parking/garage make this a realistic project for downsizers or investors seeking value-add potential.
A video tour is available for an initial view. Buyers who prioritise a single-level home and are prepared to invest in modernisation will find clear potential here; those wanting a move-in-ready property should note the renovation needs.
