Spacious detached house on a large, private plot close to good schools..
- Approximately one fifth of an acre plot with high privacy
Set well back from the road at the end of Rectory Lane, this detached, three-bedroom house sits on approximately one fifth of an acre and offers exceptional privacy behind remote-control gates. The plot is a standout feature: sweeping, well-stocked front borders, an extensive driveway to an integral garage and a secluded, mature rear garden with terraces, summerhouse and ornamental pond – ideal for family outdoor life and entertaining.
Internally the home provides generous, flexible living space including a large L-shaped lounge/dining room, breakfast kitchen with granite worktops and integrated appliances, utility and ground-floor cloakroom. The principal bedroom is a particularly large suite (formerly two rooms) with en-suite shower and could be reconfigured back to provide an additional bedroom if required. Overall accommodation is spacious and characterful, with original oak flooring and contemporary finishes in key rooms.
Practical considerations are clear: the house is understood to date from around the 1950s (some records note a later construction date), it is gas central heated with underfloor heating served by a boiler, double glazed throughout and offered freehold. Council Tax Band F applies and broadband speeds in the area are slow, which may matter for home workers. The property suits families seeking privacy, sizeable gardens and easy access to local amenities and good schools in Breadsall and nearby Derby.
This home combines a rare plot and privacy with flexible accommodation. It will particularly appeal to buyers wanting generous outdoor space and the option to adapt the principal bedroom back to two rooms. Any purchaser should note the higher council tax band and limited broadband speed when considering overall running costs and connectivity.
