Property Description

A truly superb opportunity to acquire a particularly attractive bay fronted 1937 built traditional three bedroomed semi-detached house situated within literally yards of Ridgeway Infant and Gayton Junior Schools. Internally the property is mostly uPVC double glazed, gas centrally heated and requires some improvement and upgrading. A recommended internal inspection will reveal a generous sized entrance hall with staircase to first floor, front sitting room with bay window, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, rear hall with two adjoining outbuildings that could be converted or extended subject to usual planning consents. To the first floor landing there are three bedrooms and bathroom with a separate wc. The property is set nicely back from the road with a neat fore garden and an adjacent driveway provides ample car standing space and leads to the single detached garage. A particular feature of the sale is the extremely well kept south-west facing garden which offers a certain degree of privacy. The property occupies an exceedingly popular location situated in the sought after district of Littleover which has an excellent range of primary and secondary schools, shops, amenities and superb road network connections providing swift access onto Derbys inner ringroad and the city centre.
