About This Property

Discover what makes this home special

The Thornton is a spacious detached family home located in the Swadlincote area of South Derbyshire, offering five generous bedrooms and a versatile living space. Despite its surprisingly low asking price of £10,000, the property presents a unique opportunity for buyers willing to undertake renovation or redevelopment. The ground floor features a large kitchen/dining area, family room, lounge, snug, utility, and a downstairs WC, providing ample space for family living and entertaining. The generous plot size and detached nature of the property offer potential for extension or redevelopment subject to planning consent.

Situated in a semi-rural setting, this property benefits from a peaceful environment while remaining within reasonable commuting distance to Derby and Birmingham. The local area is undergoing regeneration, which promises to improve amenities and infrastructure in the near future. This home is ideal for investors, developers, or buyers seeking a project in a location with good growth potential.

Property Features

The Thornton boasts a flexible layout with five bedrooms, making it suitable for large families or those needing extra space for home offices or hobbies. The inclusion of a utility room and downstairs WC adds convenience, while the multiple reception rooms provide options for formal and informal living. The large plot size is a significant asset, offering scope for garden landscaping or future extensions. Although the property requires updating, its structural layout is sound, providing a solid foundation for customization.
