Summary - FOUR LANES COTTAGE CHESTERFIELD ROAD OAKERTHORPE ALFRETON DE55 7LN
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Chain-free rural retreat with parking, modern kitchen and easy commuting links.
Characterful beams and feature fireplace with log burning stove
Set on the edge of the Derbyshire Dales, this semi‑detached period cottage combines traditional character with practical modern updates. Exposed beams, a feature fireplace with log burner and a compact, contemporary kitchen create a comfortable living space for one or two occupants.
Sold freehold and chain‑free, the cottage is well placed for commuting to Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield and Chesterfield. It benefits from double glazing (fitted post‑2002), a mains‑gas boiler with radiators, two off‑street parking spaces and an enclosed terraced garden—suitable for low‑maintenance outdoor enjoyment.
Buyers should note the property lies in a high flood‑risk area and sits on historic sandstone/limestone walls that are assumed uninsulated. The plot is small and the cottage’s pre‑1900 construction may mean further energy improvements or maintenance work are needed to meet modern standards. Council tax is inexpensive.
This home will suit downsizers or those seeking a characterful rural base with good mobile signal and reasonable broadband. It offers immediate move‑in potential with scope to improve energy performance and flood resilience over time.
