Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Clipstone is offered with a substantial rear plot and planning permission for a separate two-bedroom dwelling, with independent access proposed from Clipstone Drive. The existing house has a reception room, kitchen with access to the rear garden, three bedrooms and a shower room. The reception room is arranged as a generous open space with scope to divide it into separate areas, while the kitchen could potentially be enlarged into the dining area, subject to any necessary checks and approvals. At the front, a driveway provides off-road parking. The long rear plot is currently largely hard surfaced, with a further garden area, and could be retained as outdoor space or considered in connection with the approved development. The listing states an EPC rating of C. Planning application reference 2026/0270/FUL relates to a detached dwelling at the rear. Buyers should verify the current status and conditions of the permission, approved drawings, access arrangements and any associated obligations.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At £235,000, this three-bedroom semi has a clean, usable interior, driveway parking and a substantial rear plot. The kitchen and some finishes are older in style, making this a light cosmetic-refresh project rather than a major renovation. The rear hardstanding could also be cleared or reworked, and the listing says planning permission has been granted for a separate two-bedroom dwelling; verify the permission, conditions and feasibility before relying on that potential. The visible standing water also makes it worth checking the cause and drainage.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen and selected interior finishes while keeping the existing clean, usable rooms.
  • Improve the substantial rear plot by clearing or maintaining the mossy, mostly hard-surfaced areas.
  • Investigate the stated planning permission for a detached two-bedroom home at the rear, subject to verifying its current status and conditions.
