SELLER INSIGHT Located in the village of Mickleover, to the west of Derby, this outstanding two-storey contemporary home, with state-of-the-art technology and luxurious features, is a hidden gem set within modern landscaped gardens. Architect designed as a one-off, and almost Mediterranean in style, it offers open-plan living and an abundance of stand-out features: oak and glass staircase, luxury en suite bathrooms, cinema room, bar area, outside pizza oven and a self-contained Jacuzzi house and shower room. 14 Welney Close has been home to Mark and Shelly for five years; ‘it’s a stunning and truly unique home and people are very surprised when they see it as it sits tucked away in a quiet spot where you’d never imagine to find such a contemporary home. Set at the head of a cul-de-sac, the location is quiet yet in the heart of the village close to shops, pubs and restaurants. In one direction is the city, perfect for work, culture and entertainment, and in the other direction the countryside which offers wonderful walks and country pubs – you really do get the best of both worlds living here. Derby is a great city and there are some excellent schools, both state and independent, nearby.’ says Shelly. ‘It’s a truly individual property offering the best of modern luxury – it really has that ‘wow factor’. Both house and garden offer the perfect mix of space, style and comfort and it’s a wonderful place for entertaining guests. The sweeping drive offers parking for up to seven cars.’ ‘Every room in the house has been brilliantly designed but the master bedroom is outstanding; it features a dressing room, en suite with freestanding bath and double shower and a private balcony perfect for sunbathing which can be accessed through both the bathroom and bedroom. It’s a really peaceful space away from everything.’ ‘The plot is well away from the sound of traffic and has plenty of mature trees which provide a lovely setting. Sitting in the covered jacuzzi whatever the weather is a wonderful luxury.’ ‘It’s such a social space, inside and out, and we’ve had great times hosting drinks in the bar, putting on cinema nights, dining al fresco on the decked eating area, and, as we did last year, holding a garden party for over 100 guests – we invited all our lovely neighbours to join in the fun. It’s without doubt a fantastic party house!’*
