Sycamore Way, Brailsford, DE6

BENNET SAMWAYS is thrilled to present this newly constructed, four-bedroom detached house, built to a high specification and situated in the sought-after village of Brailsford. With a generous internal space of 1,350sq.ft., this home offers a versatile study, perfect for remote working or easily adaptable as a playroom for a growing family.

Interior - Upon entering, you are welcomed by an impressive hallway showcasing elegant upgrades, including solid oak doors throughout. The dual-aspect sitting room offers a relaxing atmosphere, while the open-plan kitchen/dining area boasts high-quality units, sleek quartz worktops, and stylish lighting. Integrated appliances include a double electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer. The tiled flooring and French doors lead to a beautifully landscaped garden. The utility room is finished to the same high standard, and a fitted guest cloakroom completes the ground floor.
On the first floor, the spacious master bedroom features built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite shower room. Three additional double bedrooms and a modern, well appointed family bathroom round out the upper level.

Exterior - The front garden features a pathway to the main entrance, while a large driveway runs alongside the house, leading to a detached single garage with an up-and-over door. The attractive rear garden, meticulously maintained with planted borders, offers a paved patio and a main lawn, perfect for relaxing and outdoor entertaining.

Locality - Positioned ideally on the A52, midway between Ashbourne (6 miles away) and Derby (8 miles away), Brailsford is a village that boasts a comprehensive range of amenities. It offers everything from a garage for automotive needs, a handy convenience store with an integrated post office, a medical practice, to a welcoming coffee shop, a chic beauty salon, and recreational facilities like a golf course and driving range. The village is also the setting for the venerable All Saints’ Church and the Brailsford Church of England Primary School, with the added benefit of lying within the catchment area of the prestigious Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School (QEGS). Architectural interest is sparked by nearby landmarks such as Brailsford Hall, a Jacobean style mansion erected in 1905, and Culland Hall. The latter is famed for its annual open gardens event, featuring a plant fair that is a delight for gardening aficionados.

Owner's perspective - "My wife and I have enjoyed living here over the last five years. We have particularly appreciated the good-sized garden, which, being South-facing, is a real sun trap and sheltered if the weather ever gets windy. It is also nice and private. This estate (unlike some) is set well away from busy roads and is therefore quiet, which we like. Having two downstairs rooms (in addition to the spacious dining kitchen) is really important for us, as it means that I have a room separate from the lounge in which to teach the piano. For those with children, it would make an excellent playroom. The house is also very convenient for any attending Brailsford Primary School. I love being able to watch the birds feeding in the garden through the dining kitchen windows. There are some lovely walks straight out of our front door and Carsington is nearby too. Derby and Ashbourne are both within easy reach."
