23 Stubby Lane

Set within a super plot of 1.25 acre is this charming detached cottage, benefiting from extended and immaculately refurbished interiors, three bedrooms and an established garden plot with paddock beyond. Being finished to an exceptional standard, the cottage has been thoroughly renovated to include a new roof, new ground and first floors, a complete rewire, refitted column radiators, new hardwood windows and doors and a quality refit to the kitchen and family bathroom. This former Duchy of Lancaster cottage also benefits from full planning permission for a two story extension and for the erection of a detached single garage.

The interiors to this characterful home comprise briefly entrance hall, study/snug, sitting room with wood burner, dining kitchen with bespoke deVOL kitchen and traditional pantry and utility/boot room to the ground floor, with three good sized bedrooms to the first floor serviced by ample fitted storage and a Villeroy and Boch family bathroom. Outside, the generous plot is approached by a gated entrance to an expansive driveway which leads onto lawned gardens, which house an oak framed workshop offering ideal space as a home office. Double gates lead out to the paddock, and the elevated position of the land allows for stunning views over surrounding Derbyshire countryside to be appreciated.

The property is set in the desirable Derbyshire village of Draycott in the Clay, a traditional rural community home to a post office and village shop, two traditional country pubs and a Ofsted rated ‘Outstanding’ Primary School. More comprehensive facilities can be found in the market town of Uttoxeter where there is a leisure centre, a wide array of shops and supermarkets, pubs and restaurants, a train station and the Uttoxeter Racecourse. The property lies within catchment for the Oldfields Middle and Thomas Alleynes High School in Uttoxeter, and the location is ideal for access to the A50 and A38 providing swift links to Birmingham, Derby, Stoke and to the JCB HQ and Academy in Rocester. A public bus route runs through the village and the International Airports of Birmingham and East Midlands are both within an easy drive.
