Step into a practical family home on Staffa Drive, offering generous living space across two storeys and a useful rear extension with a ground-floor WC. The layout provides multiple reception rooms plus five bedrooms, adaptable for family life and home working. A set of 12 solar panels reduces energy costs and supports a more sustainable household.
Outside, an enclosed garden framed by greenery gives private outdoor space for children and pets, while the integral garage and driveway provide secure parking and storage. The property is double-glazed (upgraded after 2002) and heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators, making it comfortable year-round. At about 1,573 sq ft, the house sits on a small plot but makes efficient use of its footprint.
Location suits commuting families: Alfreton station (routes to Nottingham and Chesterfield) and frequent local buses are within easy reach, and road links via the M1, A61 and A38 broaden travel options. Local schools nearby are rated Good by Ofsted, and everyday amenities are within walking distance. The property is freehold with an affordable Council Tax Band C.
Buyers should note the area records above-average crime levels and the plot is relatively small compared with larger suburban gardens. The home dates from the 1980s; while it is well-maintained and energy-efficient, buyers seeking high-end finishes or a large garden may want to allow for some updating or landscaping to suit personal taste.
