Property description
A rare and exciting opportunity to purchase a substantial period five bedroom detached cottage, on a private garden plot of over half an acre. Sympathetically extended, refurbished and re-modelled with original features complemented by modern living, hidden from view with private access, ample parking and garage. A detailed viewing is highly recommended.
A RARE AND INTERESTING OPPORTUNITY HAS ARISEN TO PURCHASE A SUBSTANTIAL FIVE BEDROOM DETACHED COTTAGE, SITUATED ON A SECLUDED GARDEN PLOT OF JUST OVER HALF AN ACRE.
Clayworth Cottage dates back to at least the early 19th Century and possibly before, being originally two farm workers cottages. The current custodians of this property have sympathetically extended, refurbished and re-modelled to provide a spacious and adaptable family home. The property retains many of its original charm and character and where it has not been possible to preserve, the owners have painstakingly sourced fixtures and fittings to complement this cottage, as well as bring in into the 21st Century with a state of art central heating system, partial under-floor heating to the ground floor, double glazing throughout, en suite shower room to the principal bedroom, as well as an en suite to one of the other double bedrooms, family bathroom and shower room facilities.
The property appears to be hunkered down in its own private plot and gardens with gated forecourt providing ample parking and garaging. The main gardens are found to the side and rear elevations with formal lawns flanked with colourful bedding and interesting features such as a preserved railway bridge from times gone by when there was a minimal goods train linking to Stanton. Going under this bridge leads to further tiered and well screened gardens, currently lawned, but could offer a great place to create a garden allotment.
Located within Little Hallam is a hamlet within the parish of Ilkeston and far from being isolated is conveniently placed with ease of access to the market town of Ilkeston which has a recently re-opened train station. The cities of Nottingham and Derby are also close by, as is surrounding countryside and the picturesque villages of Stanton by Dale and Dale Abbey and for those wishing to commute further afield, junction 25 of the M1 Motorway is no more than fifteen minutes drive away.
The property enjoys many features and of course the heart of any home should be the kitchen and this is no exception, with a farmhouse style kitchen with Aga, as well as a 'prep' kitchen, restored cellar, great for those with a wine collection, two generous reception rooms, reception hallway, useful utility room and two ground floor cloakroom/w.c. facilities. Two staircases provide access to the first floor accommodation, which offers a great size and flexibility and there is also a second floor where there is a bedroom, bathroom and store room, which could be adapted to provide for a great penthouse style suite.
Hidden from view, this remarkable family residence, with complementary grounds must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
