Set on a generous 2,025m² block in Herrick, this two bedroom home is a chance to enjoy a bit of country life and put your own ideas into a property.
The home gets plenty of sunshine through the large windows across the front and has a wood heater to keep things warm and cosy through the cooler North East winters. The kitchen and dining area are open plan, with two bedrooms and the usual comforts of a simple country home.
Outside, there is plenty of room to spread out. The yard has a number of established fruit trees, space for a veggie patch and plenty of room for the chickens to wander. There is also a garage, woodshed and a double carport attached to the house, so there is no shortage of space for cars, tools, firewood and all the other things that come with country living.
The home is comfortable as it stands, with plenty of scope for some updating and a little personal touch over time. It is the sort of property where you can make changes as you go, put your own stamp on it and create something that suits you.
Herrick is a peaceful spot in the North East, with Derby around 40 minutes away and its famous Blue Derby mountain bike trails an easy drive for riders. Scottsdale is also around 40 to 45 minutes away, with Lilydale and the surrounding country towns within reach.
If you are looking for a big block without a huge price tag, somewhere to keep a few chooks, grow some fruit and vegetables, enjoy a wood fire and have a bit of space around you, this one is worth a look.
It is not polished, but it has potential, and sometimes that is exactly what you are looking for.
