Freehold 3 Bed Semi FOR SALE Derbyshire £145 000

Recently refurbished property in fantastic location overlooking Bolsover Castle. Double glazing, Gas central heating from new combi boiler, Garage and off road parking, Large workshop. Potential for extension.

The property is in a quiet residential area and a 5 minute walk away from all the amenities of Bolsover, including restaurants and supermarkets. Across the road is the former home of John Fiddler the explorer who discovered the Hudson Bay. It is now a pub serving excellent food and is said to have the best view in Derbyshire.

The house would be suitable for holiday letting due to the close proximity of the Peak District, Hardwick Hall, Chatsworth House and Sherwood Forest as well as East Midlands Airport and Doncaster Robin Hood Airport all being within 20 minutes drive. It is ideally placed for events at the English Heritage owned Bolsover Castle such as the Derbyshire Food Fair, Weddings, TV filmings, the firework display and various plays and Music concerts.

The house has recently been let for £525 per month and is ready to move into.

At present, there is a new M1 motorway junction (J29a) under construction less than 5 minutes drive away. This is due to be completed in Feb '08 and will make Bolsover an excellent base for commuting to Nottingham, Derby, Sheffield, Chesterfield, Mansfield, Rotherham and Doncaster (all within 30 miles) and property values in the area are set to increase as a result.

The property is stamp Duty exempt.

Development potential

Plans have been drawn for a pitched roof extension to replace the existing garage and a loft conversion. This would create a 4 bed house with a seperate self contained 1 bed studio flat or a spacious 5 bed/ 3 reception room family house. A full set of plans and survey drawings are included in the sale.

I had planned to develop the property myself but am no longer able due to other commitments. This would make a great opportunity for someone either to build the extension then let this out as a holiday apartment to pay the mortgage, or just to move straight in.
