End of terrace house

Property Description:

Nestled in a quiet and peaceful location in the beautiful and historic village of Ellastone, is a unique and appealing five bedroomed end of terrace period property, offered for sale with immediate vacant possession.

The property requires a comprehensive scheme of improvement and upgrading and internally the double glazed and oil fired centrally heated living accommodation in brief comprises of entrance hall, front sitting room, utility room with guest cloakroom, fitted dining kitchen with a range style cooker and timber framed double glazed conservatory.
To the first floor landing there are two double bedrooms and shower room. To the second floor landing there are two further double bedrooms and a single bedroom.

A particular feature is how the property is set nicely back from the road behind a well kept deep fore garden with adjacent concrete patterned driveway which provides ample car standing space and leads to a detached garage. To the rear there is an enclosed garden backing onto open fields with far reaching countryside views.

In our opinion there is significant potential to extend the property subject to obtaining the necessary planning and building regulation approval.

Ellastone is a pretty and charming village location which boasts the well known Duncombe Arms Public and Restaurant, tennis club, church and is well positioned for the River Dove, Ashbourne and Alton Towers.
