Victoria Avenue, Draycott

THIS IS A LOVELY BAY FRONT EDWARDIAN SEMI DETACHED PROPERTY WHICH IS POSITIONED ON A QUIET CUL-DE-SAC CLOSE TO THE HEART OF DRAYCOTT, A MOST DESIRABLE VILLAGE SITUATED BETWEEN NOTTINGHAM AND DERBY.

We are very pleased to be instructed to market this traditional three bedroom property which also includes two large reception rooms and is being sold with the benefit of no upward chain and therefore ready for immediate occupation by a new owner. The property benefits from being recently re-decorated to most rooms and the well proportioned accommodation still retains many of the original features from when the property was built including glazed tiling to the walls in the porch, pine doors to the rooms off the hall and landing, a beautiful fireplace in the front room and the original storage cupboards and drawers next to the chimney breast in the rear reception room and for all that is included in this spacious home to be appreciated, we strongly recommend that interested parties do take a full inspection which will enable them to see all the accommodation included and the private sunny garden at the rear for themselves. Draycott village has a number of local shops and schools for younger children while there are Co-op stores at both Breaston and Borrowash with large supermarkets and schools for older children being found in Long Eaton which is only a few minutes drive away.

The property stands back from the road behind a walled and hedged front garden and there is a path leading to the front of the house and a second path running down the right hand side to the rear. The property is constructed of brick to the external elevations under a pitched tiled roof and the accommodation derives all the benefits of gas central heating and double glazing and includes an open porch leading through the original front door to the reception hall, lounge which has the feature fireplace and a bay window to the front, separate dining/sitting room, fitted kitchen and off the kitchen there is a most useful ground floor w.c. and shower room. To the first floor the landing leads to the three bedrooms with the main bedroom being at the front and the bathroom which has a white three piece suite. Outside there is a garden area at the front with the main garden being at the rear of the house and these are extremely well maintained with there being a brick outbuilding to the rear of the house and a second brick outbuilding which used to be the outside w.c. The rear garden is private and at the bottom of the garden there is a summer house/shed.

As previously mentioned Draycott has a number of local shops with larger shops being found in both the nearby villages of Breaston and Borrowash and supermarkets at Long Eaton, Spondon and Pride Park, there are schools for older children at Sandiacre as well as Long Eaton, healthcare and sports facilities including several local golf courses, walks in the surrounding picturesque countryside which includes St Chad's and the excellent transport links include junctions 24 and 25 of the M1, East Midlands Airport, stations at Long Eaton, East Midlands Parkway and Derby and the A52 and other main roads provide good access to Nottingham, Derby and other East Midlands towns and cities.
