Kings Drive, Littleover, Derby

*WE ARE INVITING BEST & FINAL OFFERS IN WRITING BY 12:00PM ON WEDNESDAY 22nd MAY 2024* Attractive bay fronted traditional detached residence dating back to the 1930’s occupying a beautiful, mature well established plot of 1/5 acre in a highly desirable location.

This is an exciting opportunity to acquire an attractive 1930’s built traditional detached residence. Extended twice by the current vendors, the property provides spacious and versatile accommodation with further potential to extend to the rear (subject to the necessary planning permission).

The property retains some original character and the accommodation comprises porch, entrance hall, fitted guest cloakroom, dual aspect lounge, dining room and dining kitchen with pantry and utility off. The first floor landing leads to three double bedrooms, bathroom and a separate WC. To the opposite side of the first floor is a room currently used as a lounge but could easily be portioned off to form a sixth bedroom. This in turn leads to an inner landing with two further bedrooms and a shower room. The property also benefits from an office/study which is independently externally accessed to the rear.

The property sits in beautiful gardens which are well established containing a varied selection of flowering plants, shrubs and mature trees and also features a double width driveway leading to an integral garage. To the rear of the property is a particularly pleasant south-facing garden.

We would also point out the property benefits from solar panels.

The Location - The property’s location on highly sought-after Kings Drive offers easy access to an excellent range of amenities in both Mickleover and Littleover village centres and is also close to the Royal Derby Hospital. Of further benefit is excellent schooling in the area, notably Wren Park Primary School, Littleover Community School, Grammar School and Derby High School in Littleover. The property is also placed well for commuting with easy access onto the A38 and A50.
