Summary - 12, Central Drive, Blackwell, ALFRETON DE55 5JS
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable freehold home with parking and strong transport links.
Three bedrooms across two storeys, traditional interwar layout
A three-bedroom semi-detached home on Central Drive offering straightforward space and strong transport links. The traditional interwar build provides reliable proportions across two floors, with a kitchen, lounge, conservatory, and a single family bathroom. At 824 sq ft on a decent plot with off-street parking, the layout suits a first-time buyer or an investor seeking rental income.
The property is freehold and benefits from mains gas central heating, filled cavity walls and double glazing (install date unknown). Broadband speeds are reported fast, and the location offers easy access to the A38 and M1, plus a range of nearby amenities and several well-rated primary and secondary schools.
Buyers should note material negatives: the local area is classified as deprived with average crime levels, and there is no mobile signal recorded at the property. The exterior shows signs of maintenance needs consistent with an interwar home, and the single bathroom may be limiting for some households. These factors, alongside the property’s modest internal size, are reflected in the price and present scope for improvement or refurbishment.
Overall, this is a pragmatic purchase for someone wanting a reasonably priced, freehold house with good connectivity and clear potential to add value through updating and minor repairs. Investors can expect straightforward lettings demand; first-time buyers will find manageable running costs, including very cheap council tax.
