A rare and interesting opportunity has arisen to purchase a single storey, reconstructed barn. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in a private courtyard development. The property sits adjacent to open fields to one side with all the rooms having windows on this side, therefore offering a fantastic aspect to wake up to.Manor Court is a cluster of five individual dwellings, being former farm buildings and milking parlour, converted 30 or so years ago. This character property was created by the redevelopment of an existing barn, using many of the original materials and features which can be seen internally, such as the A frame roof truss to the vaulting ceiling in the living room. The interior is centrally heated with a combination boiler and the property is double glazed throughout. The principal bedroom enjoys an en-suite shower room and there is a family bathroom. The spacious living room is at one end of the property with a feature fireplace, and to the other end is a dining kitchen with vaulted ceiling and access to the rear garden. The courtyard is accessed from a private lane off Derby Road. Thers is the benefit of a single garage within an adjacent block, as well as off-street parking. The property has a generous garden plot with a courtyard style garden to the front finished with artificial lawn with the main garden being in two sections to the rear with courtyard area beyond the kitchen. This leads onto a mature garden with lawns, trees and shrubs, and offers a good degree of privacy from the neighbours. Situated on the outskirts of Risley, a small Derbyshire village, with a great community feel and local public house/restaurant. Far from being isolated, Risley is close to the borders of Nottinghamshire/Derbyshire and a short drive to the A52 linking both Nottingham and Derby, as well as Junction 25 of the M1 motorway, making this a great place for commuters. Being on the edge of the countryside, there are many footpaths and bridleways to roam and enjoy.This property will suit many, whether for those looking for single storey living, a characterful, unique property which offers the scope for alteration and improvement, and possibly extension (subject to necessary permissions).
