Character-filled five-bedroom family home with field views and large private garden.
Five double bedrooms with substantial floor area (approx. 1,667 sq ft)
Set on the edge of Allestree with open-field views towards Kedleston Estate, this extended 1930s semi-detached home offers spacious living across more than 1,600 sq ft. The property suits families seeking generous bedroom space—five double bedrooms—and generous reception rooms that retain period character such as bay windows and original oak flooring. The plot is a major asset: a wide frontage, block-paved driveway, integral garage with electric door and a mature, fully enclosed rear garden with a timber-framed home office/store.
Living spaces are comfortable and practical: a lounge and extended dining room both feature log burners and the kitchen is fitted with granite worktops and a Rangemaster cooker. Ground-floor convenience includes an understairs utility area and a wet room, while the upstairs bathroom retains period styling with a roll-top bath and Victorian-style fittings. The location is family-friendly, near well-regarded schools, Markeaton Park and local amenities at Park Farm, with good commuter links to the A38 and Derby city centre.
Important practical points: the house dates from 1930 and has solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) so buyers should consider thermal upgrade costs. Council tax is above average. While the property is chain free and well maintained in many areas, parts of the home will benefit from modernisation to improve energy performance and personalise finishes.
Overall, this is a character-filled family home in a desirable Allestree position offering immediate liveability and clear scope to add value through insulation and cosmetic updating. The large garden and separate office make it well suited to families needing flexible space or buyers seeking an attractive long-term family home close to green open spaces.
