Semi-Detached House
DRAFT DETAILS ONLY.
A rare opportunity to acquire a Victorian double fronted semi detached residence which still retains much of its inherent character, occupying a delightful location, well set back from the road and having extensive southerly views to the front, and bordering open fields to the rear.
The property stands in extensive gardens and has a footpath approach to the front entrance but there is also a separate driveway, now substantially overgrown. Space permits for significant extensions or other buildings (subject to planning permission).
The house which retains several original fixtures and fittings, requires a thorough scheme of renovation and refurbishment but there is huge potential with the property coupled with the fact that it is situated in one of Derby's premier residential areas, but a little distance out of the village and therefore enjoying essentially rural peace and quiet.
