Detached House
DRAFT DETAILS ONLY.
An opportunity to acquire a uniquely located detached residence in
a tranquil rural setting yet on the doorstep of Littleover conurbation and
consequent facilities.
The property is a registered smallholding, and extends in all to
about 3 acres. It is set amidst fields
and approached via a private gated driveway (rights of access in favour of
others over the first part), and the property offers immense potential. Currently two bedroomed, it has planning
consent for extensions to provide three bedrooms plus study/box room, and
greater development of the homestead may be a possibility, subject to further
planning requirements.
The property requires a scheme of updating and improvement but
undoubtedly its potential lies in development of the house and outbuildings, of
which there are many but in need of repair and maintenance for the most part.
An inspection is strongly recommended. The house will be open for viewings on
pre-determined days and times. This is
indeed a rare opportunity.
