4 bedroom house

Viewing of this fabulous individually designed and built 1950's family home on an outstanding plot is a must. Having never been to the market before, the property presents a rare opportunity to buy such a home to modernise and renovate in your own style. The property boasts a light and airy feel right the way through with large picture windows providing views across the fabulous plot.

Foston enjoys rural surroundings combined with excellent transport links provided by the A50 and A38, perfect for those working in Derby and beyond.

Set behind an established lawned front garden, a long sweeping driveway gives access to the attached double garage. The front entrance door opens into the L shaped reception hall with a study area beneath the stairs alcove having views to the front elevation.

Leading off is the impressive L shaped living room with picture window framing views to the front together with large windows to the rear with window seats and a door leading out to the garden. A feature fireplace provides a focal point with recesses either side.

Off the hall is the kitchen which has a range of traditional base and eye level units with open shelving and matching drawers, and a delightful blue oil-fired AGA sits as an attractive centrepiece. Completing the suite of reception rooms is the dual aspect sitting room with a superb wooden floor, fire surround and large picture windows providing fantastic views across the garden.

Off the hall is a cloakroom leading to a guest WC with wash hand basin and WC. An inner hallway leads to the garden room with French doors opening out to the garden and a door leads through to the attached workshop.

Ascending the stairs to the first floor the galleried landing has doors leading off to four bedrooms; three of which are substantial doubles with the main bedroom featuring a balcony enjoying views to the front. Guest bedroom four is a good-sized single. Also on the first floor are two bathrooms, the first of which is fitted with a panelled bath, pedestal wash hand basin and WC, and the separate shower room has a fitted vanity unit with inset wash basin and a single shower cubicle.

Without doubt a real highlight is the plot; with superb established gardens to the rear having well-stocked borders and mature trees including an impressive maple tree at the top of the garden. The house offers a fantastic blank canvas for buyers wanting to use their imagination to create a stunning family home to their own specification and is available with the advantage of no upward chain.
