South Park Avenue, Darley Dale

This stylish and pristine home has been 'future-proofed' with significant upgrades throughout in the past two years. The improvements include a new kitchen, new bathroom, new windows and internal doors, new boiler, carpets and wooden flooring. The home therefore represents tremendous value for money.

Located on a pleasant, quiet street in the heart of Darley Dale, within walking distance of two primary schools and local facilities, the home is also close to countryside walks and has spacious rooms throughout.

On the ground floor, the entrance hallway leads through to the sitting room, dining room and kitchen. To the first floor are three bedrooms and the family bathroom, with a versatile large loft room above. The front and rear gardens are both easy-maintenance and there is a large modern shed and brick outhouse for useful storage too.

Darley Dale is a popular and friendly village with several shops, pubs, the Whitworth park and centre, as well as two primary schools. Located between Bakewell and Matlock, walking, cycling and driving routes around the majestic Peak District are possible in all directions and the popular market towns of Buxton and Chesterfield are close by too. Chatsworth House and the Chatsworth Estate are within 5 miles too. It is a tremendous location in all respects.

Front Of The Home - Approach the home from the new tarmac road to the front. To the right of the path which leads to the front door is a large paved patio, perfect for outdoor seating and dining. It has a timber fence boundary and from this elevated position, it has an open feel thanks to the extra-wide street.

The stone built home has a tiled roof. Enter the home through the half-glazed uPVC front door with chrome handle and letterbox.

Entrance Hallway - This impressive entrance to the home has herringbone wooden flooring which flows seamlessly through to the dining room. It's a wide hallway with a high ceiling, so feels roomy and spacious. To the left is a built-in oak cupboard with shelf. There is a radiator, ceiling light fitting, under-stairs cupboard and window to the front. Stairs on the left lead up to the first floor and a modern Mexicana door opens into the dining room and through to the sitting room.

Sitting Room - 3.6 x 3.3 (11'9" x 10'9") - The carpeted sitting room has a huge south-west facing window and this is a bright and airy room. The focal point is the log burner and flue, set within a fireplace with stone hearth and lintel. This has been capped off because it has not been needed since the installation of the new boiler, but can easily be reinstated. The room has a contemporary feature panelled wall, radiator and ceiling light fitting.

Dining Room - 4.05 x 3.3 (13'3" x 10'9") - With herringbone wooden flooring, this room has lots of space for a 4-6 seater dining table and additional furniture. This room has another panelled feature wall, radiator and ceiling light fitting, with a large window looking eastwards out to the rear garden.

Kitchen - 2.9 x 1.8 (9'6" x 5'10") - Fitted in 2022, the modern kitchen has an L-shaped worktop with white subway brick-style tiled splashbacks and a range of high and low level cabinets and drawers. At the far end is a four-ring gas hob with chrome extractor fan above and Lamona electric oven below. At the right hand end is a stainless steel sink and drainer with chrome mixer tap, with space and plumbing beneath the worktop for a washing machine. The room also includs a ceiling light fitting, a window and half-glazed uPVC door to the rear garden. It may be a consideration to open up the kitchen and dining room to create one large ground floor room.

Stairs To First Floor Landing - Carpeted stairs with a pine banister on the right lead up to the L-shaped landing. There is a ceiling light fitting and entry to the loft room overhead. Matching white panelled doors with chrome handles lead into the three bedrooms and bathroom.

Bathroom - 2.45 x 1.75 (8'0" x 5'8") - We love this modern, stylish room, which was fitted in 2022 - especially the contrast of the black easy-clean walls with the white bathroom suite. The jellybean shaped bath has a chrome mixer tap, curved pivoting glass screen and mains-fed shower with monsoon shower head and separate hand-held shower attachment. There is a ceramic WC with integral flush, ceramic pedestal sink with chrome mixer and vinyl flooring. There is also a contemporary slate grey vertical heated towel rail, frosted double-glazed window and ceiling light fitting.

Bedroom Three - 2.4 x 1.8 (7'10" x 5'10") - This single carpeted room at the front of the home has a tall south-facing window. It could also be a home office or nursery.

It is east facing with an open aspect to the south, so gets a good amount of sunlight from early morning to lunchtime, making it perfect for a spot of breakfast or light lunch.
