A distinguished 1640 detached with large garden, garage, five bedrooms and family potential.
Five spacious bedrooms across three floors
Set on a very large plot on historic Alfreton Road, this substantial 17th‑century detached house blends enduring period character with practical family living. Five spacious bedrooms across three floors, three bathrooms (including an en‑suite), two reception rooms and a double garage provide genuine room to grow for a family that needs space and flexibility. Mature gardens and patios create a private outdoor retreat for children and entertaining.
The property already benefits from some modern upgrades — a contemporary kitchen, modern bathrooms, mains gas central heating and solar panels — but it remains a character home with exposed beams, stone fireplace and original masonry. Large sash‑style windows and multiple rooflights deliver good natural light throughout the principal rooms. The substantial basement and generous outbuildings offer scope for storage, hobby space or conversion subject to consent.
Buyers should be aware this is a historic stone-built house: external walls are likely uninsulated and double glazing pre-dates 2002, so further energy improvements will be needed to reduce running costs. The basement has exposed concrete flooring and ceiling insulation; some internal areas will benefit from updating. Council tax is described as expensive. Those seeking a low-maintenance, modern townhouse may prefer elsewhere, but families wanting space, period character and long-term potential will find strong appeal and opportunities to add value.
