Blanch Croft
Melbourne
A beautifully appointed two-bedroom cottage, comprehensively renovated in 2024 and presented in a contemporary style while retaining considerable charm and character. The property is offered with no upward chain and benefits from a wealth of features that can only be fully appreciated by internal inspection. Externally, there is a delightful cottage garden to the front and off-road parking to the rear.
Occupying an enviable position in the very heart of the highly sought-after south Derbyshire village of Melbourne, this well-regarded and affluent location offers an idyllic village setting. The cottage further benefits from a gas-fired central heating system and an array of period features, including exposed beams and a natural stone façade.
Upon entering through the cottage-style timber glazed front door, you are welcomed into a delightful, light and spacious reception room. This room features stunning engineered herringbone oak flooring, which extends seamlessly throughout the ground floor and into the kitchen area. Additional features include a cottage-style single-glazed timber window to the front elevation, antique-style glazed feature wall lighting, and an exposed beamed ceiling. The room is further complemented by a radiator and a spiral staircase providing access to the first floor.
The elegantly designed, cottage-style fitted kitchen was newly installed in 2024 and is finished in a contemporary yet sympathetic style. It features shaker-style base units, a Belfast sink with antique-style mixer tap, and complementary laminate worktops with matching splashbacks.
