Shaws Hill, DE4

Standing on the outskirts of this popular Derwent Valley village, this individual detached bungalow provides generously proportioned three bedroom accommodation. The principal rooms and gardens take full advantage of panoramic views across the valley's rolling countryside which are ready accessible and particularly appealing to those seeking an active outdoor lifestyle or simply to enjoy this beautiful countryside location. The mature gardens include lawn and shrubs, as well as perennial and Spring bulbs. Internally, the property offers opportunity for some cosmetic updating and there is the benefit of oil fired central heating and uPVC double glazing, whilst externally the larger garden area enjoys a south westerly aspect and there is the added advantage of off street parking and an integral garage.

Whatstandwell boasts a thriving community and has the benefit of a respected primary school, as well as a train station with a regular connecting service to Derby and the East Midland Trainline service to London. The local road network provides good links to the neighbouring villages of Holloway, Lea and Crich, with the market towns of Belper, Matlock, Alfreton and Chesterfield each within easy commuting distance. The wider delights of the Derbyshire Dales countryside are also close at hand.
