Description

A picturesque Grade II listed five-bedroom home, formed from two 18th-century cottages and set in 0.55 acres. The Green offers generous gardens, period charm, and privacy in historic Markeaton Village, just west of Derby.

Accommodation Summary
Ground Floor: Upon entering The Green, you are immediately greeted by timeless historical charm, exposed beams, elegant traditional fireplaces, and distinctive brick banding beautifully echoing its 18th-century heritage. The unique wrap-around layout effortlessly unites the living spaces, creating a harmonious flow with well-defined zones perfectly suited for both sophisticated entertaining and relaxed family living.

The ground floor features two versatile reception rooms alongside a charming study, offering adaptable spaces to unwind, host guests, or work from home in privacy. At the heart of the home, the kitchen balances classic character with everyday comfort, boasting delightful garden views and abundant potential for bespoke enhancement. Complementing this is a practical utility room, a well-appointed pantry, and a convenient ground floor W.C., all designed to elevate daily living with thoughtful functionality.

First Floor: The first floor features three generously proportioned bedrooms, each offering delightful views over the gardens or village. Ideal for growing families, guest accommodation, or flexible work-from-home spaces, these rooms continue to showcase period charm through characterful windows, rustic textures, and a tranquil ambiance that adds warmth and personality.

Completing this level is a beautifully appointed family bathroom, thoughtfully positioned to serve the bedrooms. Elegantly designed to feel bright and airy, it seamlessly blends contemporary comfort with the home’s timeless period character.

Second Floor: Concealed behind a discreet door, a staircase leads to the top floor, where three versatile rooms and a bathroom await. Currently arranged as two bedrooms, a living room, and a bathroom, this versatile space offers numerous possibilities, including use as a dressing room, bedroom, and private living area with bathroom. Perfectly suited as a self-contained guest suite, a principal retreat, or a teenage hideaway, it provides privacy and adaptability to complement the main residence.

Outside: Set within approximately 0.55 acres, the grounds at The Green present significant potential. Accessed via composite gates and a sweeping driveway to the rear, the property enjoys a strong sense of arrival and excellent privacy. The gardens envelop the home and, once fully landscaped and restored, could become a stunning feature, ideal for entertaining, children’s play, or peaceful relaxation. Whether envisioned as formal gardens, outdoor seating areas, or a natural retreat, the extensive grounds offer limitless opportunities to create your perfect outdoor living space.

Location: Located in the heart of historic Markeaton Village, a peaceful hamlet just west of Derby, The Green forms part of a charming cluster of listed properties. It enjoys a rare blend of countryside tranquillity and urban accessibility. The nearby Markeaton Park offers scenic walks, family-friendly attractions, and open green space just moments from the doorstep.

Despite its rural feel, the property is just over two miles from Derby city centre, which offers a full range of amenities and direct rail services to London in under 90 minutes. The A38 and A52 offer swift connections to the M1, East Midlands Airport, and regional hubs such as Nottingham and Birmingham, making this an ideal home for those who value both peace and practicality.
