Owner's perspective - "This house has been our home for almost 10 years and has seen our family of two become three, as well as a pawesome friend in the mix too. The layout has made both family life and entertaining an easy one while the bright, big windows make it feel inviting and welcoming even on a rainy day. The location has been one of our favourite features about living here. It’s a 10-minute walk into the town centre, 5-minute walk to a Co-Op (super handy when you forget the one thing you went to the grocery store for), walking distance to a wealth of fantastic schools, across the street from a bus route and right off the main road into Derby. You can also enjoy being right on the doorstep of the Peak District with beautiful countryside walks to experience. The driveway was also a big selling feature for us. We can easily get our three cars out without needing to move any of them. It also offers that extra bit of privacy being so set back from the road. We’ve loved living in this house and have enjoyed every minute of making it a home."
