Property description
* UPGRADED and REDECORATED THROUGHOUT. This late-Victorian terraced home has two bedrooms, and a converted loft room offering potential to become a third bedroom - subject to the necessary building regulations. The house benefits from newly-laid carpets, a refitted modern kitchen and a lawned rear garden, and is handy for the town centre shops and facilities. A look inside reveals: a lounge, inner lobby, a cellar, separate dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom and a converted loft room. The property was re-roofed about two years ago, and at the same time, a new gas central heating boiler was installed. Viewing is highly recommended! NO UPWARD CHAIN.
THE LOCATION
MELBOURNE (the name means 'mill on the brook' or 'a mill stream') is a small attractive Georgian market town in a delightful part of South Derbyshire set in rolling countryside and is situated midway between the major city of Derby in the north and the bustling town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch in the south. The town contains a wide range of shops, pubs and restaurants and there are several good schools in the area. The property has good access to the A50, the M1 and M42 motorways, making it within easy reach of many Midland towns and cities.
