Having provided many happy years of family life, this traditional and generously proportioned three-bedroom semi-detached home now offers a wonderful opportunity for its next owners to create a home perfectly suited to their own tastes and lifestyle. Occupying a good size plot in the popular area of Shelton Lock, the property offers spacious, versatile accommodation, excellent outdoor space and plenty of scope for thoughtful modernisation and improvement. Equally appealing to growing families or those looking to downsize without compromising on space, this much loved home is ready to begin its next chapter.
A spacious L-shaped entrance hall provides an inviting introduction to the property, with useful understairs storage and access to the principal living spaces. The generous front facing lounge enjoys plenty of natural light courtesy of a charming bay window and features a traditional fireplace, creating a welcoming focal point. To the rear, the formal dining room provides an excellent space for family meals and entertaining and has a feature fireplace, twin French doors opening out onto the rear garden, and open access through to the kitchen, offering an appealing connection between the living areas. The fitted kitchen provides a good amount of cupboard and worktop space and is complemented by a separate utility room, which also presents the potential to create a convenient ground floor WC, subject to the necessary works and regulations. From the kitchen, a sliding patio door leads into the good size conservatory, which enjoys pleasant garden views and direct access outside. The spacious first floor landing is a particularly versatile feature, offering scope for the new owners to explore a number of possibilities, subject to the necessary permissions and regulations. With its generous proportions, there may be potential to create a compact home office or study area, incorporate an en suite facility or investigate access to the loft space. The spacious principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and an attractive bay window, ensuring the room is filled with natural light. A second double bedroom overlooks the rear garden and also benefits from built-in storage, while a further well proportioned third bedroom provides useful flexibility for children, guests or home working. All three bedrooms are served by the existing fitted family shower room with convenient storage cupboard.
Outside, the property is set back from the road behind a low stone wall, with a tarmac driveway providing useful off road parking; established shrubbery adds a mature and established feel, while gated side access leads through to the enclosed rear garden, which is a generous and private outdoor space, predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by a patio seating area together with mature flower and shrub borders. A detached storage garage provides valuable additional storage space and practicality, while the overall garden offers plenty of scope for the new owners to enhance and personalise the space over time.
Shelton Lock is a popular residential neighbourhood offering a convenient balance of everyday amenities, green spaces and excellent transport connections. Local shops, schools and recreational areas are all within easy reach, while Derby city centre is readily accessible for a wider range of shopping, dining and leisure facilities. For commuters, the nearby A50 provides excellent links towards the M1 motorway and the wider East Midlands, making the location particularly well placed for those travelling by road. The setting combines the convenience of suburban living with a peaceful residential atmosphere.
With its spacious accommodation, generous plot, off road parking, detached storage garage and adaptable layout, this much loved family home represents an exciting opportunity for its new owners. While it would now benefit from modernisation throughout, the property has been clearly cherished over the years and provides a wonderful foundation from which to create a home for the future. Whether you’re a growing family seeking space to make your own or looking to downsize while retaining generous accommodation, this Shelton Lock property offers tremendous potential and is certainly worthy of a closer look.
