Description

A semi-rural property offering a three-bedroom farmhouse, together with a collection of useful outbuildings, gardens, and paddocks all totalling approximately 1.38 acres. The property requires internal modernisation but has been well-maintained, offering a fantastic opportunity for those with equestrian, hobby farming and/or amenity interests seeking an accessible location. Viewings STRICTLY by appointment only.

Location - The property situates in a semi-rural location, on the edge of the village of South Normanton, offering an accessible location close-by to a range of amenities. Nearby towns are Alfreton to the west (2.0 miles), Mansfield (7.4 miles), Belper to the south west (10.2 miles), and Chesterfield to the north (12.6 miles). The cities of Derby and Nottingham locate just 15 miles south each respectively, where a broader range of amenities and transport links can be found. The property locates nearby to the Peak District National Park, benefitting from an array of local walks, bridleways, trails and beauty spots.

Accommodation - The sale of the property presents a lovely and unique opportunity to acquire a detached three-bedroom dwelling offering well-proportioned accommodation across two floor, with opportunity to modernise and update to a purchasers own personal taste.

With entrance into a welcoming hallway, the property offers a large sitting room with dual aspect views across the garden through patio doors. A dining kitchen locates off the sitting room, with fitted units, through to a spacious reception room offering two external entrances. A useful and versatile office space locates off the reception room, as well as entrance to a general storage/workshop and ground floor w/c. Climbing to the first floor, the farmhouse offers two double bedrooms, and a single bedroom with views across the paddock, and a family bathroom hosting a bath with shower over, basin, bidet and w/c. The layout of the accommodation offers great flexibility and opportunity to extend for those who wish to accommodate larger families (subject to the necessary consent).

Externally, the dwelling presents a spacious lawned garden to the front with planted borders and mature shrubbery offering a pleasant outlook and amenity areas. A patio lays at the foot of the dwelling with plentiful space for outdoor dining and seating. The private driveway leads from the roadside into a yard area offering ample parking for multiple vehicles, giving access to the outbuildings and land to the rear.

Outbuildings And Land - Adjoining the dwelling to one end, a single-storey brick-built loose box offers stabling, while a garden store to the east of the dwelling offers further general storage. A large block-built garage presents a useful space whether that be for storage or as a workshop, with a lean-to general purpose building to the rear. The buildings are each flexible in their uses, and the property offers space to erect further outbuildings should one wish (subject to planning consent).
The land at the property comprises one paddock laying flat, locating to the rear of the dwelling, suitable for grazing of small livestock and/or horses. The paddock is all down to grassland, bounded by mature hedgerows, and of manageable acreage suiting those with hobby farming interests and seeking the amenity aspects of life.
