The list price of £275,000 for a three-bedroom house in Mickleover seems reasonable considering comparable properties listed nearby. While we lack sqft information in the local listings, the price appears competitive given the general desirability of the location and the average prices of nearby streets, even accounting for the property needing some modernizing.

The property appears generally well-maintained from the photos provided, though some rooms show their age in their decor and style. The kitchen and bathrooms seem reasonably modern but other areas such as bedrooms could benefit from some modernisation or updating. It’s not in need of major repairs but some cosmetic improvements would enhance its overall appeal.

Mickleover is a popular residential area in Derby, known for its good schools and amenities. The proximity to Mickleover Primary School and Silverhill Primary School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, is a significant plus for families. While train stations are a bit further out (6-9km), the area itself seems well-connected and offers convenient access to local services. This makes the location desirable, though not perfect, given the slight distance to larger transport hubs.

The property has a garden, which is a positive feature, but it appears relatively small and requires some landscaping. The size is not explicitly stated, but based on the photos, it’s not overly spacious. The inclusion of a garage adds value.
