THIS IS A THREE DOUBLE BEDROOM DETACHED COTTAGE WITH BEAUTIFUL SOUTH FACING GARDENS TO THE REAR. Robert Ellis are pleased to instruct this detached cottage which will provide a new owner to stamp their own mark on their next home. For the size of the accommodation on both the ground and first floors to be appreciated, we do recommend that interested parties do undertake a full inspection so that they can see the accommodation as well as the privacy of the South facing rear garden for themselves. The property currently has three double bedrooms, but we feel with the re-positioning of the bathroom on the first floor, it could have a fourth bedroom created as there are two large landing areas which we feel could be further utilised for bedroom space. The property is well placed for easy access to the amenities and facilities provided by Borrowash village and is also well placed to the A52 which provides good access to Derby and Nottingham. The property is constructed of brick with render to the external elevations under a pitched tiled roof and the well proportioned accommodation benefits from having gas central heating and double glazing. In brief the accommodation, which has an open plan feel to the ground floor, is entered through the front door into a reception hall/sitting area, off which there is a rear hallway which provides access to the lounge with there being a shared feature fireplace with the sitting room, and there is also a separate dining area. The kitchen extends across the rear of the cottage and is fitted with pine wall and base units and from the kitchen there is a door leading out to the rear garden. To the first floor, the spacious landing leads to the three double bedrooms and there is a bathroom which has a coloured suite and as previously mentioned would now benefit from being re-positioned at the far end of the landing area. Outside, there is a car standing area to the right of the property and a path at the front with the main gardens being at the rear. The gardens at the rear of the cottage are South facing and are extremely well stocked with a wide variety of perennial plants, gravelled areas, paths leading to the bottom of the garden, there is a lawned area and a selection of trees and bushes. The garden is kept private by having fencing and hedging to the boundaries and there is also an outside WC (not tested) positioned to the right hand side of the cottage and a shed which will remain at the cottage when it is sold. Borrowash provides a number of local shops, including a Co-Op convenience store, there is a Birds Bakery, quality butcher and fish mongers, with further shopping facilities being found at Pride Park where there is a Sainsburys and Tesco, recently opened Marks and Spencers food store and there is also an Asda store at Spondon.
