Property description
THIS IS A MOST DELIGHTFUL FOUR BEDROOM DETACHED EXECUTIVE FAMILY HOME SITUATED ON A PRIVATE CUL-DE-SAC ON THE EDGE OF CASTLE DONINGTON. THE PROPERTY PROVIDES WELL PROPORTIONED AND VERY WELL MAINTAINED ACCOMMODATION AND HAS A BEAUTIFUL SOUTH FACING GARDEN TO THE REAR.
It indeed provides Robert Ellis with much pleasure to be instructed to market this beautiful family home that was built approximately 30 years ago by Bovis Homes. The property was one of the classic homes built by Bovis at this time and is constructed of a reclaimed brick to the external elevations under a pitched tiled roof. The property benefits from all the efficiencies associated with a newly built home with an additional piece of land being purchased some years ago, the property now has a large and private SOUTH FACING GARDEN at the rear. For the full extent of the accommodation and the size of the garden at the rear to be appreciated, it is strongly recommended that all interested parties do take a full inspection so they can see the whole property for themselves. The property is being sold with the benefit of vacant possession and therefore there is NO UPWARD CHAIN involved. Being situated on this private cul-de-sac the property is within easy reach of all the amenities and facilities provided by Castle Donington and to those found in other nearby towns as villages as well as to excellent transport links, all of which have made this a very popular and convenient place for people to live.
It is felt Cooks Drive is one of the premier roads in the whole Castle Donington area and this select development comprises similar styles and size executive detached homes. The property is constructed of the attractive reclaimed facia brick to the external elevations under a tiled roof and the well proportioned and tastefully finished accommodation derives all the benefits of GAS CENTRAL HEATING and DOUBLE GLAZING. Over recent years the property has had both the kitchen and the main bathroom refitted and so there is a minimal amount of work any new purchaser may wish to carry out. The property includes an open porch, reception hallway with ground floor w.c. off, lounge/sitting room, separate dining room which has double opening French style doors leading into the brick built CONSERVATORY which connects the main living space to the beautiful garden area at the rear. The kitchen is positioned to the front of the house and this is finished in French oak units with several INTEGRATED APPLIANCES. As people will see when they inspect the property there will be the option to carry out various alterations which could include combining the kitchen and dining room which would provide a lovely living kitchen area that would lead into the conservatory at the rear. The house also has the possibility of incorporating the garages within the accommodation so a separate utility room or study or additional ground floor bedroom/sitting room could be created, or the property could be extended over the left hand garage as other properties have along the road. To the first floor there is an open landing with feature balustrade and there are the four bedrooms, three of which are double with the master bedroom having ranges of built-in furniture with an EN-SUITE SHOWER ROOM and the second bedroom also having a range of wardrobes and matching bedside units. The fourth bedroom is currently used as a study and as people will see when they view the property, it is fitted with high quality study furniture which includes a desk, drawers, shelving and cupboards. The main bathroom has recently been refitted and is fully tiled with a white suite and as well as the bath includes a separate shower with a mains flow shower system. To the left hand side of the property there is the DOUBLE GARAGE which has two up and over doors to the front and there is the block paved DRIVEWAY which provides off the road car standing for two vehicles, a lawned garden area and a path leading down the right hand side to the rear garden. The rear garden is a very special feature of this lovely home and as previously mentioned, further additional land was purchased since the property was built to extend the length of the garden. The garden is now mainly lawned with established beds and screening to the boundaries and also includes an ornamental pond. The garden is South facing and includes several areas for people to sit and enjoy outside living.
