A skilfully extended 1930s detached house arranged over three floors, this home suits a growing family seeking flexible living and generous outdoor space. The top-floor main suite provides privacy and comfort, while two double bedrooms and a large family bathroom occupy the first floor. Ground-floor accommodation includes a lounge with log-burning stove, dining room, sun room opening to the garden and a versatile office that could serve as a fourth bedroom or home workspace.
The property's large side-and-rear plot is a genuine selling point: mature, enclosed gardens, patios for entertaining, greenhouse, summerhouse, substantial workshop/shed, utility outbuilding with WC and two garages plus parking for several cars. Modern practicalities include double glazing, a gas-fired boiler and plentiful storage, making day-to-day living straightforward.
Practical notes and constraints are set out plainly: the house is set in an area with above-average crime rates, and its three-storey layout may be unsuitable for buyers who require single-floor living. Council Tax is band D. The property was constructed in the 1930–1949 period, so prospective buyers may wish to budget for age-related maintenance despite many recent updates.
Positioned close to local amenities, good primary and secondary schools and with convenient road and rail links to Derby, Nottingham and the M1, this home balances country-adjacent living with commuter accessibility. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the scale, layout flexibility and extensive gardens.
