Key Features - *Spacious Victorian property with 8 en-suite bedrooms
*Set within an excellent location walking distance from the town centre, opposite the college and close to the new university campus
*Garages, workshop and parking to the rear
*Set within a generous plot of approx. 1/3 of an acre
*uPVC double glazing throughout, and recently installed Worcester Bosch combi boiler

56 Sheffield Road comprises of a large and rather grand Victorian property, set within a generous plot of approximately 1/3 of an acre within walking distance of Chesterfield town centre. The spacious property comprises of 8 well-proportioned bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities, along with spacious reception rooms including a dining room and lounge, with a galley kitchen of which is a conservatory utilised as a utility room and a family bathroom.

The property offers excellent flexibility within the accommodation, providing a rare opportunity to acquire such a large family home within beautiful mature gardens such a short distance from the town centre.

To the rear of the property is ample off road parking, with two good size garages and an extensive workshop allowing an excellent opportunity for a keen hobbyist or someone looking to work from home (subject to planning permission where required) with the potential to create office space or workshops as required.

The property is currently operated as a successful guest house, with the excellent location providing a good base to explore the historic market town of Chesterfield, the local landmarks such as Chatsworth House and the Peak District National Park beyond. The guest house furniture, fixtures and fittings can all be included within the sale if desired, and the property has been kept up to date with recent rewiring and in line with all fire safety regulations.

Given the accommodation on offer the property would also be ideal for conversion into a house of multiple occupancy (HMO), or student accommodation given the close proximity to the college and the new University of Derby campus (both within a few minutes' walk) especially given that much of the regulations that are required for such properties are already met with the current guest house use. This would of course be subject to seeking the relevant permissions, though it is likely these would be favourable from informal discussions in the past.

Development Potential - Given the size of the plot, there is also potential for further development to the rear of the property, again subject to planning permission. If the main property were to be converted to an HMO or student accommodation as aforementioned, the mature gardens would potentially become something of a luxury to the occupants, and therefore a development to the rear could maximise the further potential of the site.

New Room - No formal discussions or approaches to the council have been made at this stage, and we would advise contacting the planning department to discuss the potential if this is something of interest.
