House For Sale £235,000
No chain - A most spacious late Victorian, semi-detached property of style and character, offering over 1900 square feet of accommodation and benefitting from many period features and a private rear garden, the property is situated off Burton Road and offers easy access to excellent local amenities including regular bus services and the Royal Derby Hospital.
We believe the property was built circa 1900, of brick beneath a slate roof, with the front elevation having an attractive appearance revealed by ground floor bay window, sash-style windows, stone lintels/sills and is nicely set back from the pavement edge, behind a low maintenance foregarden.

The first floor landing offers access to three double bedrooms, box room and bathroom with three piece suite. There is loft ladder access to a large attic space which offers excellent potential for an attic conversion (subject to necessary planning consent)
Immediately to the rear of the property, is a delightful private walled garden which enjoys a shaped lawn, paved patio and outside wc.
