3 bedroom semi-detached house

BENNET SAMWAYS are delighted to offer for sale this traditional three-bedroom semi-detached house, which requires modernisation. This property presents a fantastic opportunity for someone to create a lovely home on a sought-after road in Ashbourne. It is within walking distance of the town centre and, even closer, the highly regarded Queen Elizabeth Grammar School (QEGS). The property is offered with no chain and features a generously sized garden with huge potential. Ideal for investment or as a first-time purchase, the gross internal area is 700sq.ft. The property also benefits from solar panels for a feed-in tariff and heats the hot water.

Interior - Stepping into the hallway, you are greeted with the original quarry-tiled floor, an under-stairs storage cupboard, and stairs leading to the first-floor accommodation. There is a spacious, dual-aspect living room with exposed floorboards, which would look lovely varnished to retain its character. The kitchen requires modernisation and currently includes a sink unit, base units, and space for a cooker. There is also a side door leading to a side lean-to with access to both the front and rear of the property. The shower room, which also requires modernisation, includes a white suite and a shower cubicle. On the first floor, the dual-aspect master bedroom is spacious and includes a storage cupboard. There are also two further decent-sized bedrooms.

Exterior - The property is approached via a tarmac driveway, providing ample parking space for one vehicle. The front garden is a good size and offers potential to expand the driveway. The rear garden is also generously sized and features a brick outbuilding, a pond, and a naturalised area that could be transformed into a lovely garden, with a focus on wildlife. In our opinion, the garden requires some landscaping, but it offers huge potential for any keen gardener.

Locality - Nestled within the picturesque landscape, Ashbourne stands as a historic market town renowned as "The Gateway to the Peak District," owing to its strategic proximity to the breathtaking Peak District National Park. Conveniently situated with easy access to the A50 (9 miles), facilitating connections to the M1 and M6 motorway networks. Noteworthy for its longstanding tradition of Royal Shrovetide Football, a ritual dating back to 1667, observed on Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday. The thriving town boasts a diverse range of amenities, featuring a plethora of distinctive, predominantly independent shops, and charming cafes. Adding to its allure, Ashbourne hosts a popular golf course on its outskirts, and the coveted Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School (QEGs) caters to the educational needs of the town and the adjacent Derbyshire Dales villages. Excellent transport links include a well-connected bus station linking Ashbourne to Derby and Uttoxeter, with a variety of regular services. Convenient train stations at Uttoxeter, Derby, and Matlock further enhance connectivity. Ashbourne serves as an ideal base to explore numerous nearby attractions, including the stately Chatsworth House, Tissington Hall, Haddon Hall, Alton Towers, Matlock Bath, and the picturesque Dovedale, promising a truly enchanting experience.

Owner's perspective - "76 The Green Road is ideally located for walking to the town centre or the local footpaths over the fields, and very convenient for schools with good reputations.
It has been my aunt's home for over 40 years before she reluctantly had to move into a care home. As a keen gardener my aunt grew many interesting plants, but with advancing years she reluctantly let nature be the gardener, I can recommend the raspberries."
