Three-bedroom detached cottage

An enchanting, detached cottage occupying a wonderfully private 0.37-acre mature plot, with a long sweeping private driveway. This property features three reception rooms, a substantial conservatory, three double bedrooms, extensive parking, and a double garage, offering exceptional potential to extend or redevelop. It is located in the heart of Littleover old village. Entrance to the property is via a generous front entrance porch with hanging space for coats, leading into the main entrance hall and into the ground floor guest cloakroom, fitted with a low flush WC and pedestal wash basin. The main hallway has stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading off to the ground floor living spaces. The living room runs the full depth of the property with a window overlooking the front elevation, whilst an elegant fireplace forms the focal point of the room with an inset living flame effect fire. The dining room sits off to the side of the room and is open plan, whilst patio doors open into the conservatory. The "P" shaped conservatory is brick built with great views over the garden from large wrap-around windows, and French doors provide direct access. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of base and eye-level units with melamine-finished worktops, an inset polycarbonate sink unit, tiled splashbacks, a built-in eye-level double oven and microwave, a gas hob with an extractor hood over, and an integrated fridge. Off the kitchen is a generous lean-to utility room with matching base units, melamine-finished work surfaces, an inset stainless steel sink unit, and space for appliances. There is an access door to the side and windows on three sides. The generous study completes the ground floor accommodation with double aspect windows and built-in cupboards. On the first floor, a central landing gives access to three double bedrooms, all with built-in and fitted bedroom furniture and lovely views. The bathroom is fitted with a vanity wash basin with plenty of matching storage and a "P" shaped bath with a shower over and glass screen. There is a dormer window to the front and a separate WC. Outside, the property is approached via a long private sweeping driveway that ends in a large parking and turning area with access to the detached garage. Stunning mature gardens wrap around the property, screened by mature trees which provide a high degree of privacy.
