BOOK DIRECTLY – https://www.sdlauctions.co.uk/property/46405/semi-detached-house-for-auction-derby/

Tucked away in a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac location, is an extended traditionally built, rendered three bedroomed semi-detached property, requiring a scheme of improvement and upgrading.

The well proportioned living accommodation has the benefit of being uPVC double glazed and mostly gas centrally heated and in brief comprises:- porch, entrance lobby with stairs, lounge separate dining room, breakfast kitchen with rear porch, bathroom and a small lobby providing access to the separate W.C. To the first floor landing, there are three nicely sized bedrooms and W.C. with the old airing cupboard.

Outside the property is approached via a recently laid tarmacadam shared private road which serves a small number of similar style properties from off Chain Lane. There is a fore garden and driveway providing car standing space leading a single detached garage. To the rear there is an enclosed overgrown garden enjoying a westerly aspect and offering a certain degree of privacy.

In our opinion there is further scope to extend the property subject to obtaining the necessary planning and building regulations.

The well regarded and highly convenient suburb of Mickleover is positioned on the west side of Derby and has an excellent range of amenities with superb road network connections providing swift access onto the Royal Derby Hospital, Derby City Centre, A38, A50 and Toyota.

Offered for sale with immediate vacant possession.
