An impressive four-storey detached family home offering almost 3,000 sq ft of flexible living space and far‑reaching views across Belper. The house centres on a sociable kitchen/dining area with integrated Neff and Bosch appliances, a lounge with log burner, separate dining room and a large lower-level games/family room opening onto a private, westerly garden and raised sun balcony.
Six bedrooms (or five plus a study) and four fitted bathrooms suit a growing or multi-generational family; the principal suite includes a walk‑in wardrobe and en‑suite. Practical features include a double‑width driveway for four cars, a large integral garage/workshop with electric roller door, fitted utility and cloakroom. The plot is generous and private, with a block‑paved entertaining terrace and timber shed.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: broadband speeds in the area are very slow, and the property is in Council Tax Band G (quite expensive). The four‑storey layout may be inconvenient for anyone with limited mobility. One nearby secondary school is rated 'requires improvement' by Ofsted — several other local primaries and secondaries are rated good.
This home will most appeal to families needing space, those who entertain regularly, or buyers who value an elevated, private setting. It also offers room for cosmetic updating or modernization if desired; any purchaser should factor running costs and broadband provision into their planning.
