SYSONDALE

This charming extended 1930s detached fivebedroom house sits halfway along Anslow Lane on the southern outskirts of the picturesque village of Rolleston-on-Dove.

Sysondale is a spacious and well-designed detached house located in a convenient village close to an extensive range of amenities, commuter roads and rail networks. The property boasts an impressive 3184 sq.ft of living space, making it ideal for modern family living. Upon entering the property, you are greeted by a porch which leads into a reception hallway. The hallway features a guest cloakroom, connects well to ground floor rooms and has a staircase leading to the first floor.

The ground floor of the property comprises a sitting room, study, fitted breakfast kitchen, utility, dining room, and garden room. The fitted breakfast kitchen is a great feature of the property, providing ample space for cooking, dining and entertaining. The garden room is also a fantastic addition, providing a tranquil space to relax and unwind.

The first floor of the property is accessed via a well-proportioned landing, which leads to the principal bedroom with an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Additionally, there is a second bedroom with an ensuite, three further bedrooms, and a spacious family bathroom.

Externally, the property benefits from a gated driveway, providing ample parking and offering scope for a garage. To the rear of the property is a beautifully landscaped garden, featuring an extensive patio area, a lawn and second patio overlooking fields to the rear.

GROUND FLOOR

Upon entering the property, guests are greeted by a grand and sophisticated reception hallway with high ceilings and staircase leading off to the first floor. The property boasts an abundance of living space with large windows inviting natural light throughout - this is apparent in the large sitting room, where attention is drawn to the countryside views through the expanse of glazing to the front aspect. The experience of natural light and views over surrounding countryside continues in the breakfast kitchen via the large bifold door - a modern kitchen fitted with skill and attention to detail with an expanse of storage, appliances featuring a split 2 in 1 oven and twin fridges/freezers. Furthermore, there are quartz preparation surfaces featuring a large central island. The kitchen leads into the spacious dining room, which in turn connects to the garden room with large lantern roof. Additionally, there are the practicalities of a well-placed study/family room, guest cloakroom and a useful utility room.

SELLER INSIGHT

The best thing about the house is undoubtedly the stunning views across fields towards trees and a farm on the hill. We also love the contrast between the 1930s traditional outward appearance and the modernised interior,’ say the owners who have lived here for twenty-one years. A large rear extension was built twenty years ago to include a kitchen, separate dining room, garden room, two further bedrooms, and large family bathroom. As a wonderfully up-together property, the traditional sash windows have all been recently updated with new hand-made wooden frames and double-glazing. ‘Our main living room benefits from five large sash windows plus two smaller ones, all offering open views towards the southeast. The modern kitchen with its three bifold windows overlooking the garden towards the west gets the benefit of the afternoon and evening sun.’

‘The property is perfect for entertaining, particularly made so by the kitchen, dining room, and garden room being connected by double glass doors. These can be opened up to form one large space leading to the rear garden. The large wisteria-covered pergola and barbeque area make eating outside a real pleasure.’

‘Rolleston-on-Dove is a popular village with a newsagent, village shop, thriving pub, primary school, and church, and of course the pretty stream which runs right through its centre. We love that this unique house stands on the outskirts yet is only a five-minute walk from the village centre.’

‘Our neighbours are all pleasant, friendly, and willing to keep an eye on each other’s houses when on holiday etc. For those wanting an active social life there are several local community groups including a bowls club, cricket club, football club, WI, Scouts, and a special events committee.’

‘Buses run to Burton-on-Trent and Derby via local villages while railway stations Tutbury & Hatton – three miles away – and Burton-on-Trent make traveling further afield easy. The position of the property makes easy work of accessing the A38 and the A50.’

We’ll miss the views, the peacefulness, and the wonderful sense of space one gets living here.’*
