Set back on a large plot in Pleasley, this detached stone cottage blends authentic period features with practical family space. Ground floor reception rooms include two cosy living areas and a beamed dining room anchored by brick fireplaces and a wood-burning stove — ideal for winter evenings and sociable living. The kitchen and adjoining utility provide generous work and storage space, plus a handy home office and downstairs WC.
Upstairs offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms, a smaller fourth bedroom and a large family bathroom with both a claw-foot bath and walk-in shower. The house benefits from a long drive, large garage and allotment-style rear garden with established borders — plenty of room for parking, storage and outdoor hobbies. Location is a selling point: easy access to Sherwood Forest, the Peak District and the M1 for commuting.
Important factual points: the property was constructed before 1900 and the external stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so heating costs may be higher than modern builds. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, and there is only one family bathroom for four bedrooms. Council tax sits above average and local crime rates are high for the wider area; buyers should factor these into long-term running and insurance costs.
This chain-free, freehold home will suit buyers seeking a character cottage with space to personalise rather than a fully modern turnkey property. It offers strong potential for sympathetic energy improvements and cosmetic updates while delivering immediate family accommodation and excellent outdoor space.
