This detached four-bedroom house on Rykneld Road sits on a substantial plot just under one-fifth of an acre, offering generous indoor space and a private, mature garden with an impressive willow. Arranged over two floors, the home is presented in a neutral, well-maintained style with a long landing, two bathrooms, and an L-shaped open-plan living kitchen ideal for family life and social gatherings.
Practical benefits include a U-shaped horseshoe driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, a detached garage, security lighting and an alarm, and proximity to strong local schools including Littleover Community School. The location provides easy access to local shops, supermarkets and the A38/A50 commuter routes — convenient for school runs and daily travel.
There is scope to personalise and extend: the property had previously lapsed planning consent for a side extension, and the large plot offers obvious potential for enlargement or significant landscaping. Buyers should note some fabric and efficiency considerations: the property appears to have solid-brick walls with no cavity insulation assumed, and the double glazing was installed before 2002, so thermally upgrading could be worthwhile.
Other factual points: the home is freehold and offered with no upward chain, council tax is in Band E, and broadband speeds in the area are average. Overall, this is a roomy, well-located family home with a rare plot size for the area, suited to buyers seeking immediate liveability plus scope to improve and extend.
