Description

Occupying a larger than average corner plot in a highly sought-after residential location, this attractively presented three-bedroom semi-detached property has recently undergone an extensive programme of renovation and improvement to create a stylish and versatile home. The property immediately impresses with its smart graphite grey external windows and large low-maintenance gardens, enclosed by medium-height fencing providing both privacy and security, making it ideal for young families and pet owners alike.
Internally, the accommodation has been thoughtfully modernised throughout and offers flexible living arrangements suitable for a variety of purchasers, including those seeking ground floor bedroom facilities or multi-generational living. An internal inspection reveals well-planned accommodation decorated in a modern style, complemented by contemporary radiators to the ground floor and more traditional fittings to the first floor.
The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch leading directly into a beautifully presented lounge decorated in neutral tones with a pleasant front-facing aspect. The recently refurbished kitchen has been fitted with a stylish range of modern white units with complimenting work surfaces with full matching upstands. Integrated features include a four-ring hob with black splash guard, high-level oven within a tower unit and plumbing for an automatic washing machine.
The dining room is separate from the main kitchen area and benefits from patio doors opening directly into the sun room that is presently under construction, stairs leading to the first floor accommodation.
A ground floor bedroom provides excellent flexibility and could equally serve as a guest bedroom, additional reception room or study, allowing the home to function either as a traditional two-storey property or bungalow-style accommodation if required.
Completing the ground floor is a contemporary shower room fitted with a modern white suite incorporating a vanity wash hand basin, concealed cistern WC and walk-in shower enclosure with low-level tray and decorative tiled walls.
To the first floor there are two generously proportioned bedrooms, both benefitting from fitted furniture, including Sharps fitted wardrobes to the principal bedroom and built-in wardrobes to the second bedroom.
An exciting addition to the property is the current construction of a luxury sun room extension, which upon completion will further enhance the already impressive accommodation and will be finished in keeping with the high standard of specification evident throughout the home.
Externally, the property stands within substantial low-maintenance grounds and benefits from a rear driveway providing off-road parking together with access to a detached garage of excellent proportions, ideal for secure parking, workshop space or additional storage.
Situated on Central Drive, the property occupies a convenient position on the fringe of the town centre whilst still enjoying easy access to the many amenities offered by this historic spa town, including excellent retail and leisure facilities, renowned architecture and transport connections. Regular bus services, a railway station and excellent road links connect the area to surrounding towns and villages. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the beautiful Derbyshire Dales and a wealth of picturesque countryside walks are quite literally on the doorstep.
