Town House
Edward Street is located off Duffield Road and runs through to North Parade, in a popular residential district within comfortable walking distance of the City centre, and close to the riverside walk leading to Darley Park.
The property is an end one of four or five town houses set back above the roadway and approached by a flight of steps to the front entrance door but giving the basement area natural daylight. It is believed to be Grade II Listed (subject to verification) and provides very spacious three bedroomed accommodation, plus basement rooms, arranged in all over four floors. The property would make a very desirable town house as a single residence, or alternatively as with one or two of the adjoining properties, conversion into flats (subject to any necessary planning approvals). It does however have considerable potential and retains much of the original character. In more detail it comprises
