Brackley Gate, Morley, Ilkeston

We have great pleasure in offering for sale this traditional two double bedroom detached bungalow located within this picturesque Derbyshire village.

Situated on a generous garden plot of 0.19 of an acre (769sqm overall) with an expansive rear garden measuring approximately 50m (164ft) in length which has views over an adjacent orchard which is used for grazing sheep.

Morley is a village in Derbyshire which is made up of a number of small hamlets, Brackley Gate being one of these where the lane sits in open countryside with rolling fields all around. There are many countryside walks on the doorstep and for those who enjoy playing golf, Morley Hayes, Horsley Lodge and Breadsall Priory, which also include leisure and spa facilities, are very close by. Far from being isolated, there are good shops and amenities at the nearby towns of Belper and Ilkeston, the city centre of Derby is less than 5 miles away and Morrisons can be found on Sir Frank Whittle Way.

The property is centrally heated from a combination boiler and is also double glazed. Accommodation comprises : hall, two bedrooms (both to the front elevation, one currently used as a second sitting room), wet room style bathroom, an extended living dining room and a fitted kitchen which opens into a conservatory.

A further feature is the garage which has been converted in more recent times to provide a useful annex with a home office or studio, utility room and wash room facilities. This is ideal for a range of uses, including for those wishing to work from home, an artist's studio, consultancy room, home gym, etc, or the possibility of occasional guest quarters.

Available for immediate occupation, the property requires a modicum of modernisation, offers fantastic potential for the incoming buyer to put their own mark upon it and possibly extend (subject to the usual permissions, etc).

With off-street parking for several vehicles, carport and a well maintained landscaped rear garden laid mainly to lawn, great for keen gardeners and for those perhaps looking for a bit of the "Good Life" !

As such properties seldom come to the market, in this location we strongly recommend an early internal viewing to avoid disappointment.
