Sketchley Lane, Burbage LE10 2NG

ASK TO SEE THE VIDEO TOUR! Just 30 years young but built to replicate a Georgian Mansion, this imposing and handsome property is sure to turn heads. With a Double Garage to the fore, including Driveway parking for up to 3 vehicles currently (but for 5-6 prior to the attractive Front Garden borders being installed), we meander through the flower lined pathways up to the welcoming Portico, an impressive canopy porch with plain columns. Then on into the generous Entrance Hall, a grand entrance to a grand house with excellent cloakroom storage and a guest Downstairs Cloakroom. To the left we have the formal Dining Room, to the right a similarly sized large Study or Home Office. Beyond we have the Lounge, with an elegant and realistic remote controlled living flame gas fire in a focal feature fireplace and double doors opening onto the beautiful Rear Gardens, bringing the outside into your home. At the rear of the property is the Breakfast Kitchen or Kitchen Diner, with a beautiful range of American Oak wall and base units with contrasting black granite worktops, upstands and breakfast bar. Additional units around the room incorporate larder storage and space for an American fridge freezer and there is an impressive drinks cabinet. Integral elements include dishwasher, microwave, double oven, 5-ring gas hob with extractor hood, recycling bins and corner unit pullout storage. All finished off with beautiful Karndean wooden effect flooring. A connecting door leads seamlessly through to a matching Utility Room offering an extra sink and plumbing for a washing machine plus side door access, ideal for dog owners.

To the first floor there are 4 generous Double Bedrooms and the Family Bathroom. The principal Bedroom to the rear is spacious and has a large Ensuite Shower Room enjoying underfloor heating. Bedroom 2 is also to the rear and again has an Ensuite Shower Room. Bedrooms 3 & 4 are both good sized Double Bedrooms to the front of the property. The Family bathroom has both a bath and a separate shower enclosure and also enjoys underfloor heating. Outside, the Rear Gardens are the product of a great deal of love, care and attention, with established borders enveloping a central lawn, an upper patio area for dining and there is a sizeable working garden discreetly tucked away at the rear with a greenhouse, shed and vegetable beds. the Double Garage to the front will take 2 vehicles and has a motorised panelled up and over door plus rear personnel door.
