4 bed detached house for sale

The Ridge, Blackwell, Alfreton DE55

We are pleased to offer to the market this individually architect-designed detached executive residence offering four double bedrooms and stands within approximately 0.281 of an acre. The home combines generous internal living spaces with beautifully landscaped gardens, providing both elegance and practicality.

The ground floor begins with an entrance porch featuring a UPVc double-glazed sliding door, a full-height glazed side panel, and a pine ceiling with carriage-style wall lighting. From here, you enter the welcoming reception hallway, which boasts oak-effect flooring with underfloor heating, a dog-leg pine staircase with turned spindle balustrades, and a useful understairs storage area housing the heating controls. A cloaks cupboard provides ample storage, while a cloakroom WC includes a modern suite with wash basin, low-flush WC, splashback tiling, and underfloor heating.

The lounge is a particularly impressive space, with a striking brick-built inglenook fireplace as its focal point, complete with raised brick hearth and chestnut mantle. French doors lead both to the dining room and reception hall, while additional French doors with glazed side panels open into the conservatory. This light-filled room enjoys tiled flooring with electric underfloor heating and French doors to the patio and rear garden.

The dining room overlooks the landscaped rear garden and features laminate flooring, underfloor heating, and stylish wall and ceiling lighting. The breakfast kitchen is well equipped with a comprehensive range of French oak-style wall and base units, display cabinetry, and extensive work surfaces. It offers space for a range-style cooker, fridge/freezer, and further appliances, with extractor canopy and tiled flooring with underfloor heating. French doors open directly onto the garden patio, making this the heart of the home.

A separate utility room provides further storage, worktop space, and plumbing for appliances, leading into the rear entrance porch with tiled flooring, garden access, and a cupboard housing the gas boiler. In addition, a generous multi-purpose reception room offers versatility as a teenager’s lounge, home office, or potential annexe for a dependent relative, enjoying dual aspect windows and a radiator.

The first floor is approached via a galleried landing with turned spindles, airing cupboard housing the Santon Premier Plus unvented hot water system, and access to the roof space with loft ladder and partial boarding. The master bedroom at the rear benefits from fitted wardrobes and delightful garden views, along with a stylish en-suite shower room comprising a double walk-in enclosure, Mira shower, low-flush WC, and heated towel rail. Three further double bedrooms provide comfortable family accommodation, with two overlooking the rear garden and two positioned at the front. The family bathroom is L-shaped and fitted with a soft cream suite, including a panelled bath with shower over, vanity basin, WC, and attractive tiled surrounds.

Externally, the property features a walled frontage with wrought iron railings and gate opening to a block-edged tarmac driveway, offering ample off-road parking. The low-maintenance front garden includes raised beds, feature planting, and a central slate-dressed display with conifers. Paths lead to either side of the house, with additional side space that could accommodate an extension or garage (subject to planning).

To the rear lies an exceptional lawned garden, landscaped with paved patios, established beds, mature trees, and hawthorn hedging. A beautiful ornamental Japanese-style pond with bridge provides a striking centrepiece, complemented by outdoor power points and garden storage. A charming summer house with lighting and power, together with a garden store shed, complete the external features.
