Manor Road, South Wingfield, Alfreton, DE55

£650,000 (Offers over) Some homes are bought for what they are. Others are bought for what they could become. Set within approximately 1.87 acres of beautifully established grounds in the sought-after village of South Wingfield, this attractive stone-built bungalow is firmly the latter. Offering four bedrooms, a generous driveway, a detached triple garage and breath-taking countryside views, it presents a rare opportunity to create a remarkable family home, tailored entirely to your own vision, in one of Derbyshire's most idyllic village settings.

Offering 1,603 sq ft of well-balanced accommodation, the home provides the perfect foundations for transformation. Four generous bedrooms are complemented by a spacious dining kitchen overlooking the gardens, a separate formal dining room, a welcoming family lounge and two bathrooms, including an en-suite to the principal bedroom. The layout lends itself beautifully to modernisation, creating an exciting opportunity to craft a home that is entirely your own.

The Grounds - Occupying approximately 1.87 acres, the grounds are every bit as impressive as the home itself. Approached via a long private driveway with extensive parking, the property unfolds into beautifully established gardens extending to approximately 0.62 acres, where expansive lawns, mature planting and a wonderful sense of privacy create an idyllic setting. Beyond the garden, a gateway leads into a further 1.25-acre paddock, offering endless possibilities for equestrian use, recreation or simply enjoying the space. Elevated just enough to capture breathtaking far-reaching views towards the Peak District, the west-facing gardens provide a spectacular backdrop to everyday life, where long summer evenings and unforgettable sunsets become part of the home's charm.

Outbuildings - Complementing the home is an exceptional range of outbuildings, adding both versatility and practicality. A substantial stone-built triple garage is accompanied by an adjoining timber lean-to garage, providing excellent storage, workshop space or secure parking. Beyond, a traditional timber barn and adjoining open-fronted hay barn offer further flexibility, perfectly suited to equestrian use, hobbies, machinery storage or those seeking space to pursue a rural lifestyle.

Why South Wingfield? - South Wingfield is one of those villages that quietly captures everything people love about Derbyshire. Surrounded by rolling countryside and steeped in history, it offers a wonderfully peaceful setting without ever feeling isolated. The village is home to a welcoming community, a popular village pub, local primary school and everyday amenities, while neighbouring Crich, Oakerthorpe and Alfreton provide a wider selection of independent cafés, shops, restaurants and supermarkets. For commuters, the location is exceptionally well connected, with easy access to the A38 and M1, placing Derby, Nottingham, Chesterfield and Matlock all within comfortable reach. Whether it's a morning walk across open countryside, weekends exploring the Peak District or a straightforward journey into the city, South Wingfield offers a lifestyle that effortlessly balances rural tranquillity with modern convenience.

Dales & Peaks Forwardmove Please Read - Dales & Peaks is marketing this Property with the benefit of ForwardMove. Dales & Peaks has introduced ForwardMove to help speed up the sales process, minimise sale fall-throughs and give more certainty to both the Seller and the Buyer.

Purchasers will benefit from the Buyer Information Pack (BIP), which we have created with our legal partners, to give buyers more information before they agree to purchase.

The pack includes:

Fixtures and contents form (TA10)
Official Copy of the Register (OC1)
Title Plan (OC2)
Local Search*
Water and Drainage Search*
Coal and Mining Search*
Homescreen / Environmental Search*

(Dales & Peaks has ordered the local, drainage, coal and homescreen / environmental searches; we will add these to the BIP as they become available)

ForwardMove allows the sale process to be completed significantly quicker than a ‘normal sale’. This is because the legal work, usually done in the first four to eight weeks after the sale is agreed, has already been completed. The searches, which can take up to five weeks, are ordered on the day the listing goes live and are transferable to the successful Buyer as part of their legal due diligence.

Additionally, and on behalf of the Seller, Dales & Peaks requests that the successful Buyer enters into a Reservation Agreement and pays the Reservation Agreement Fee of £595 (including VAT). This includes payment for the Buyer Information Pack and all the searches (which a buyer typically purchases separately after the sale is agreed).

Upon receipt of the signed Reservation Agreement, payment of the Reservation Agreement Fee, completion of ID and AML checks and the issuing of the Memorandum of Sale, the Seller will agree to take the Property off the market and market it as Sold Subject To Contract (SSTC).

During the Reservation Agreement period, the Seller will reject all offers and not enter into another agreement with any other buyer. The reservation period is agreed upon at the time of sale but is usually between 60 and 120 days.

The Reservation Fee is non-refundable except where the Seller withdraws from the sale. A copy of the Reservation Agreement is available on request, and Dales & Peaks advises potential buyers to seek legal advice before entering into the Reservation Agreement.

If you have any questions about the process or want to know how selling or buying with Dales & Peaks ForwardMove could benefit you, please speak to a member of the Dales & Peaks team.
