Detached House
FOR SALE BY AUCTION - THURSDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER 2014
AT IPRO STADIUM, DERBY
COMMENCING AT 11.30 AM
A spacious, versatile Victorian residence arranged over three floors (plus cellar) together with a linked annexe, which together offer enormous flexibility and opportunity – either as a large single family residence, or for dependent relative, associated business use, or separate rental income. Formerly it has been used as an art studio but we are given to understand that the whole property is rated as one residential unit for council tax purposes.
As might be expected, the accommodation retains considerable inherent character, with cornices, centre ceiling mouldings, picture rails, paneled doors, Minton tiled floor and coloured figured glass arched windows. At the same time the specification is modern and the property has the benefit of two gas fired central heating systems. Complementing the house is a lovely secluded rear garden, full of specimen trees and flowering shrubs, and having pedestrian access from Drewry Lane.
An internal inspection is essential and indeed, recommended. In more detail it comprises the following
