Butterfield House, Butterfield Lane, Brackenfield, Derbyshire

Standing in a plot of around a third of an acre, this superbly presented semi-detached Victorian home was sympathetically refurbished and renovated in 2019 and now offers generously proportioned and well balanced accommodation comprising spacious reception hall, dining kitchen, family room and utility at ground floor level, with four double bedrooms, two ensuite shower rooms, plus family bathroom upstairs. Outside, there is ample parking for several cars, plus garage. Gardens extend to the rear and side of the property, and there is also the added advantage of an attached paddock, ideal for cultivation / produce growing, small livestock or children’s adventure. Subject to any planning consent, the paddock could also be considered a potential building pot. All in all, a superb family home with spectacular views from every elevation over surrounding countryside.
