3 bed detached bungalow for sale

Chesterfield Road, Matlock DE4

Standing detached to a good sized garden plot, less than one mile from Matlock’s town centre, this individual detached bungalow was constructed circa 1970 to an attractive design in reconstituted stone and is now offered for sale for the first time. The property provides generously proportioned and updated accommodation which includes two reception rooms, three bedrooms and a conservatory, all of which is presented to a pleasing standard and takes full advantage of good natural light. Being set well back from the roadside, by a gated driveway, there is car parking for several vehicles, plus a garage and separate car port. The bungalow is well suited as a family home, or for those seeking a quality home in retirement, and particularly attractive for those in need of additional space for caravan, motorhome or other vehicle.

A respected location is well placed for access to the town’s central facilities, handy for nearby schooling and with good road links leading to the neighbouring centres of employment to include Bakewell (8 miles), Alfreton (8 miles) and Chesterfield (10 miles). Derby, Nottingham and Sheffield are all considered to be within daily commuting distance, and the recreational delights of the surrounding Derbyshire Dales countryside are also readily accessible.

Outside & parking

From Chesterfield Road, a broad driveway provides access by car and foot, the initial drive shared before a gated second drive leads to an area of hardstanding and turning in front of the bungalow. Outside the gates there is another parking bay, sheltered within mature shrub borders and a specimen acer. Off the drive, there is access to a car port providing a sheltered hardstanding, or suitable for outdoor jobs, bin and fuel storage, perhaps.

Gated paths lead to each side of the bungalow, the left hand taking you to the utility room entrance and to the garden, while the right hand side leads through the car port and to an evening patio, south west facing with views to Riber and the surrounding hills.

A small stone paved patio by the conservatory allows similar vantage and from this level short steps descend to the main garden. It is immediately evident the gardens, as with the house, have been cared for and enjoyed over many years. Mature shrub borders provide colour height and year-round interest; all set around a central lawn. Leading through a rose arbour, the lawn extends to a part hidden corner, where there are productive fruit beds, apple trees and greenhouse.
