Situated on Bretby Lane, this property enjoys the tranquillity of village life while being within easy reach of Burton-upon-Trent's amenities. Bretby is renowned for its beautiful countryside, providing numerous walking and cycling routes. The nearby A38 offers excellent transport links to major cities such as Derby and Birmingham, making it an ideal location for commuters. For families, the property is closely located to good schools, which include Newton Solney Infant School, Repton Primary School and Mercia Academy, Abbot Beyne School and Burton and South Derbyshire College. This lovely home is perfect for those seeking a blend of rural charm and modern convenience.
To the front is a beautifully maintained garden which has a great size lawn alongside a spacious driveway, providing off road parking for multiple vehicles.
The home opens up into a bright and spacious entrance hallway featuring the original parquet flooring, which gives access to all of the ground floor accommodation. To the front you will find the dining room with working open fireplace; this is a very versatile space that could be used as a separate reception room, play room, home office etc.
Adjacent to the dining room is the modern living room with a feature gas fireplace, inbuilt shelving and bi-fold doors leading to the rear garden.
One of the standout features has to be the fitted kitchen at the rear which has a matching range of wall and base units, granite worktops, eye level double oven, five-burner gas hob with cooker hood above, inset sink and drainer, plenty of cupboard storage including pull-out pantry, and patio doors leading to the rear garden. The kitchen benefits from an adjoining large utility room with plumbing for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer, and a stainless steel sink and drainer. The ground floor also features a convenient downstairs WC.
To the first floor landing, the property features four light and airy double bedrooms, all of which boast stunning views. The master bedroom is a brilliant space, being dual aspect and overlooking the long rear garden. The master bedroom also features a modern en suite with shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC. The other three bedrooms then share a family bathroom, which has a bath with mixer taps and shower above, WC and wash hand basin.
The rear garden is a true showstopper. Accessible from both the living room and kitchen which open onto a spacious patio-ideal for relaxing or entertaining, and perfectly positioned to catch the sun throughout the day. Beyond the patio lies an extensive lawn, offering ample space for children to play. Beautifully enclosed with planted borders and enjoying a high degree of privacy, the garden is not overlooked by neighbouring properties, creating a peaceful and secluded space.
