9 LOWER MAPLES

Built in 1999 and situated in a quiet boutique development Number 9 Lower Maples stands out as an exceptional five bedroom detached property. The property offers ample off-street parking, complete with a spacious double garage on the left-hand side. With a total measurement of approximately 2,000 sq. ft. excluding the double garage this property offers plenty of space for entertaining friends and family.

This stunning home has been meticulously renovated to the highest standard by the current owners and tastefully upgraded with modern kitchen with integrated appliances, porcelain tiled floors with underfloor heating, and ornate cornicing throughout. The spacious and welcoming entrance hallway with high ceilings and porcelain tiled flooring, along with an abundance of natural light gives you a glimpse of what is on offer with this modern and contemporary executive home.

GROUND FLOOR

Number 9 Lower Maples boasts a private block paved driveway with ample off-street parking leading to a stunning home that has been carefully crafted with exceptional attention to detail. Upon entering, you are immediately struck by the meticulous care and detail applied by the current owners. The wide entrance hallway, which benefits from an abundance of natural light during the day, is elegantly illuminated in the evenings by a contemporary chandelier that is perfectly situated at the central point of the staircase. The entrance hallway also features recessed spotlights, chrome light fittings, ornate deep cornicing which is a feature throughout the property, and tiled skirting to match the porcelain floor tiles.

On the right-hand side of the entrance hallway is a spacious family sitting room that is further enhanced by the modern recessed gas fire by Gazco. This large reception room features patio doors leading out onto the elevated patio area which is perfect for alfresco dining.

Located to the centre of the entrance hallway and accessed via double doors lies the beautiful dining room that could easily entertain 15 people with plantation style shutters, patio doors leading out on the large patio area, modern radiator, and dual suspended lights. The current owners have opened the access to the kitchen which amalgamates the kitchen with the dining room, creating a perfect open plan space to both cook and entertain.

The open-plan kitchen boasts modern tiled flooring that also features underfloor heating, mood lighting, and a centre island with breakfast bar, stainless steel sink, and an induction hob with recessed extractor fan in the ceiling. Located opposite the island are the main integrated Neff appliances including coffee machine, two ovens, a microwave, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. To the rear of the kitchen is a door providing covered access to the double garage. Also located on the ground floor is a modern W/C with Versace tiles, a Led vanity mirror, chrome towel rail, and a wall mounted W/C with recessed push button flush unit.

SELLER INSIGHT

Initially it was the location which first drew us to 9 Lower Maples,” say the current owners, “set on a quiet cul-de-sac with gorgeous countryside views, within easy walking distance of Shipley Park. The size and potential of the property also appealed to us: we knew we had a lot of work on our hands but fell in love with the place! Since moving in, we have completely refurbished the house, stripping every single room back and beginning again. We have even reboarded the floors, constructed a new staircase, and redone the ceilings - literally everything has been transformed!

“Now, we have a warm, welcoming home which is perfect for everyday life and entertaining alike,” the owners continue. “Day-to-day, we particularly love the view from the dining room or sitting in the hot tub looking out to the fields! The master bedroom is stunning, too, with its suspended ceiling, ambient lighting and beautiful fireplace surround, all designed to our own specifications to create a room we love waking up and going to bed in every morning and night. We have also made some incredible memories here with family and friends, hosting so many parties and celebrations: birthdays, anniversaries, and even my baby shower. It is the perfect party house! The outside space really comes into its own for summer entertaining, too, with a large, south facing patio looking over the grass and additional lower garden, with numerous shrubs and plants to provide interest – the ideal setting for al fresco dining, followed by a relaxing soak in the hot tub!”

The local area has much to recommend it, too. “We have great access to Shipley Country Park for plenty of picturesque walks,” the owners say. “On the other hand, we are only 10 minutes from the M1 and 5 minutes from the train station, with Derby and Nottingham both easily accessible via public transport. We really do have the best of both worlds here!”*

LOCATION
