Semi-Detached House
DRAFT DETAILS ONLY- AWAITING VENDOR APPROVAL
An infrequent opportunity to acquire a semi detached cottage of stone construction for the most part, possessing considerable character and age with the opportunity to exploit the existing features. There is the possibility to create further bedroom accommodation by raising the two storied part in line with the three storied part and/or extend into the garden to create larger ground floor living space. There is a shared driveway to side leading to its own garage, and a good sized garden terminates at a field boundary. There are very pleasant rural views towards the south.
Sandbed Lane is situated in the Openwoodgate area of Belper, convenient for local facilities, through transport routes and fuller facilities within Belper itself only one and a half miles distant.
The property has been stripped out and some tanking has taken place for damp proofing purposes. Otherwise it needs a full scheme of renovation. It does however offer beamed ceilings, lime plaster floors, original fireplaces and a set of stone stairs to the first floor.
At ground floor level there is a breakfast kitchen and a living room.
At first floor level there are two further rooms with access from one to a second floor landing room.
As previously mentioned, there is opportunity to co-ordinate the roof lines and create further accommodation at second floor level if desired and subject to any necessary planning permission.
Externally there is a shared driveway to side, with number 17 Sandbed Lane leading to a semi detached garage. The garden is quite generous, offers potential for a full scheme of landscaping, and borders an open field.
