LOCATION
Hartshorne is a well-regarded South Derbyshire village, situated around two miles east of Swadlincote and approximately four miles from the historic market town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch. The village offers a pleasant mix of traditional character and countryside surroundings, whilst remaining well placed for everyday amenities and excellent road links. The property sits within the wider National Forest area, renowned for its extensive network of woodland, footpaths and recreational routes. A wide range of leisure attractions are also readily accessible, including Calke Abbey and its historic parkland, Staunton Harold Reservoir, Foremark Reservoir and Conkers at Moira. The area is particularly attractive to walkers and outdoor enthusiasts, with numerous routes linking woodland, open countryside, reservoirs and National Trust parkland.
Nearby Woodville provides a good range of day-to-day facilities, whilst Swadlincote and Ashby-de-la-Zouch offer a wider choice of shops, supermarkets, schools, leisure facilities, cafés and restaurants. For commuters, the A42/M42, A38 and M1 are all readily accessible, providing convenient connections towards Derby, Nottingham, Leicester and Birmingham. East Midlands Airport is also within easy travelling distance.
ACCOMMODATION DETAILS - GROUND FLOOR
The property is approached via a rear entrance, opening into a useful entrance area which leads directly into the kitchen. Positioned centrally within the ground floor, the kitchen is fitted with a range of painted units, timber work surfaces and integrated cooking appliances, with space for further freestanding appliances. A broad window provides good natural light, while exposed timbers and an inset stove add to the character of the room. From the kitchen, access is provided to the dining room, a generous and characterful reception space featuring exposed ceiling beams, timber flooring and a substantial brick fireplace housing a stove. The staircase rises from the dining room to the first floor and descends to the useful cellar providing additional storage area beneath the main accommodation. The separate living room sits alongside the dining room and continues the period character, with exposed ceiling beams, timber flooring and a further fireplace with stove. From the living room there is access to a second external entry and exit point, together with the adjoining cloakroom/WC.
FIRST FLOOR
The first-floor landing provides access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom one is a well-proportioned double room, with a front-facing window and a useful built-in wardrobe cupboard providing fitted storage.
Bedroom two is also positioned to the front of the property and offers comfortable bedroom accommodation with space for a range of freestanding furniture.
Bedroom three is located to the rear and benefits from an adjoining walk-in area, creating a particularly versatile space that would work well as a nursery, study, dressing area or additional storage.
The family bathroom is fitted with a traditional-style suite comprising a freestanding roll-top bath, separate shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC. Patterned floor tiling, part-panelled walls and a rear-facing window complete the room.
OUTSIDE
To the rear, the property enjoys a mature and enclosed garden with a lawned area, established planting and a variety of shrubs and hedging providing a good degree of privacy. A brick-edged pathway leads through the garden, while a raised decked seating area creates a useful space for outdoor dining and entertaining. There are also several timber garden stores and sheds positioned towards the rear of the plot, offering useful external storage. The garden is well suited to family use, with a combination of lawn, planted borders and seating areas.
There is communal village car park next the Bulls Head public house, just a short walk away and is free to use.
AGENTS COMMENTS
A wonderfully character village home offering far more space than first impressions suggest. We particularly like the balance between the generous reception rooms, period features and practical family accommodation, together with the mature rear garden and useful cellar. Its position within Hartshorne, with countryside walks and the wider National Forest on the doorstep, makes this a very appealing home for buyers seeking character, space and village life.
