When our clients purchased their home nearly 6 years ago it was a full project. However, they said “We fell in love it’s high ceilings and charming period features. Built in 1850, this home has plenty of character and original elements that we have restored over the last 5/6 years. One of the most pleasing aspects is the natural light that pours in from the extra windows, a unique feature of being an end terrace. These windows, combined with the high ceilings, ensure the property is always bright and airy. Unlike other properties in the area, we have a decent size front and back garden that’s been perfect for gatherings with friends family and our two dogs, Podrick & Panko.”
Since 2018, the property has been rewired, had a new central heating system installed, new bathroom, new kitchen, replastered and the gardens have been landscaped.
Where the property sits and the location was also a huge positive “The house is set back from the road, it has a peaceful atmosphere that feels like you’re further from the city, whilst still being just a 15-minute walk from the city centre. We love the outdoors, it’s great having three major parks on our doorstep and the ability to hop in the car and be in the Peak District within 10 minutes.”
The entrance to the property is through the front door and into the hallway, to the right is the living room then the dining room and stairs to the upper floors straight ahead.
The living room is a beautiful space with ample room for seating, a chimney breast on the external wall, a large bay window at the front and another window on the side. The dining room works incredibly well with the off-shot kitchen, there’s plenty of space for a dining table, a great room for entertaining family & friends. The off-shot kitchen has access to the cellar and external door to the rear porch. There is a fantastic mix of contemporary units above and below the worktop plus the painted brick external walls. In terms of appliances, there is an integrated electric oven/grill, induction hob, fridge, freezer and slimline dishwasher.
On the first floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom. Bedroom one is at the front of the property, this is a huge double bedroom with an exposed brick chimney breast, bay window and another window to the side. Bedroom two is another double bedroom overlooking the rear garden. The bathroom feels incredibly light and airy with windows on two sides, there is a bath with a shower above, WC and a wash basin with storage underneath.
Bedroom three is on the second floor. This is a fantastic room and due to its size, it can be tailored to the owner’s needs. Currently, there are two bespoke built-in double beds, great for when friends and family stay over, the owners also use it as their home office. At the back are two large Velux windows and a large window on the side with beautiful views over Ponderosa Park towards Kelham Island.
The cellar runs under the front of the property and provides useful storage space.
Externally, at the front of the property is a well-maintained south-east facing garden with a lawn and raised flower beds to the side. The rear garden is a bit of a hidden gem, up a couple of steps it’s decked with raised flowerbeds dotted around, a lovely spot for a morning brew or evening glass of wine. There is access to the two outhouses, one has plumbing and space for a washing machine.
