A truly impressive three-bedroom detached residence, recently renovated throughout to an exceptional standard and occupying a prestigious position within a private estate in Littleover.
The Lodge offers a rare combination of character, privacy, generous living accommodation and contemporary finish, making this an outstanding opportunity for those seeking a premium long-term rental home in one of Derby's most desirable residential locations.
From the moment you arrive, the property makes an excellent impression, with a private driveway providing parking for three cars and an attractive detached character façade that gives the house a distinctive sense of individuality.
Internally, the property has been comprehensively refreshed and presents beautifully throughout, with fresh neutral décor, quality flooring, generous proportions and an abundance of natural light. The accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to provide excellent flexibility for modern family life.
The ground floor is particularly impressive, centred around a large dining kitchen which provides an excellent social and entertaining space. The kitchen is fitted with a stylish range of cabinetry, quality work surfaces and integrated cooking facilities, while a large walk-in pantry provides the kind of additional storage that is increasingly difficult to find in modern homes. The dining area is spacious enough for a substantial dining table, creating a natural hub for family meals and entertaining.
The kitchen/dining area also provides access towards the private rear garden and courtyard, making it particularly practical during the warmer months and allowing the living accommodation to flow naturally outdoors. A separate utility room adds further practicality, while the enclosed rear garden offers an attractive private setting for relaxing, entertaining or family life. There is also a useful log store.
The ground floor further benefits from a beautifully proportioned lounge, featuring a character fireplace and a large bay window overlooking the surrounding estate. The room has excellent proportions and provides an elegant yet comfortable principal reception space.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms and a smart family bathroom. The principal bedroom is particularly appealing, benefiting from a substantial run of fitted wardrobes, providing excellent storage while leaving the room itself feeling spacious and uncluttered.
Outside, the property really comes into its own. The private enclosed rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, bordered by established planting and mature greenery, creating a peaceful and secluded environment. A separate courtyard provides useful additional outdoor space, while the property's position within a private estate adds to the feeling of exclusivity.
The location is another major attraction. The property sits on Burton Road, close to Littleover, providing convenient access to the village's everyday amenities while also being exceptionally well placed for some of Derby's most sought-after schools. Derby High School is located on Hillsway in Littleover, while Derby Grammar School is on Rykneld Road and Littleover Community School is on Pastures Hill.
For professionals, the proximity to Royal Derby Hospital is a major advantage, while Burton Road and Littleover provide convenient access to shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday services. The wider area also offers straightforward access towards Derby city centre, the A38 and surrounding Derbyshire.
For leisure, Markeaton Park, one of Derby's most popular parks, provides extensive green space and recreational facilities, while the wider Littleover area offers parks, countryside and attractive walking routes.
