About
Offered for sale with no onward chain, this larger-than-average traditional mid-terraced property provides spacious and versatile accommodation over two floors, together with a useful attic room and enclosed rear garden.
The property would make an excellent family home, while the generous room proportions and additional attic space also make it an appealing proposition for investors, including those considering an HMO or buy-to-let opportunity, subject to any necessary permissions and consents.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall featuring attractive Minton tiled flooring, stairs rising to the first floor and useful understairs storage.
From here, the ground floor provides two separate reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and a useful utility room.
The lounge is a well-proportioned reception room with a double glazed bow window to the front elevation, central heating radiator, decorative coving and an open chimney breast recess.
The separate dining room sits to the rear and provides another generous reception space, with a double glazed window overlooking the garden, chimney breast and decorative coving.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units with solid wood work surfaces, stainless steel sink, integrated electric oven, gas hob and extractor.
There is also a double glazed rear window and access into the separate utility room.
The utility room provides further practical space, with fitted base units, stainless steel sink, appliance spaces, wall-mounted Worcester gas-fired boiler, double glazed rear window and a door giving direct access to the garden.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a particularly generous family bathroom.
Bedrooms one and two are both genuine double bedrooms, while bedroom three is a good-sized third bedroom.
The bathroom is considerably larger than might normally be expected and includes a low-flush WC, pedestal wash hand basin and bath with shower over, together with a rear-facing double glazed window and central heating radiator.
The first-floor landing also provides access to the loft space, which is currently accessed via a pull-down ladder.
The loft is fully boarded and benefits from power and lighting, while the property also has a useful attic room offering potential for a further bedroom or additional living space, subject to the necessary permissions and building regulations.
Outside, the property is set back from the road with a small front courtyard area and boundary wall.
To the rear is an enclosed garden incorporating a lawned area, concrete seating area and timber shed.
The property occupies a popular and convenient Derby location, with a good range of local amenities close by.
There is easy access towards Osmaston Park Road, nearby retail facilities and the wider Derby area, while the city centre, railway station and ring road are also readily accessible.
Overall, this is a spacious traditional property with excellent versatility, offering three well-proportioned bedrooms, two reception rooms, a separate utility, large bathroom, useful attic accommodation and an enclosed rear garden.
Offered with no onward chain, it represents an appealing opportunity for both owner-occupiers and investors.
The property also benefits from a boiler and cooker, both approximately one year old, which the seller advises are still under guarantee.
Gas and electrical check certificates are also advised to be available, subject to confirmation of the documentation and its validity.
The seller further advises that damp-proofing works were carried out at the property in the past. Any available paperwork relating to these works can be provided for prospective purchasers to review.
Buyers are encouraged to make their own enquiries and satisfy themselves as to the property's condition through the usual survey and inspection process.
