£1m-family home set in Derbyshire countryside – complete with paddock for ponies and designer tiles in bathroom – being sold by The Avenue

27/05/2022

A stunning home overlooking the beautiful Derbyshire countryside with perfectly manicured gardens, an open-plan kitchen/diner and designer tiles in the family bathroom is set to go on the market for £1m.

The four-bedroom detached house in Tansley, set in just under one-and-a-quarter acres of land – which includes a paddock at the rear of the property, perfect for a couple of ponies – is being sold by Derbyshire-based The Avenue estate agents.

The Avenue, fronted by James Humphries-Stone and his partner Hayley Griffiths, are fast gaining a reputation for their vibrant branding and unique marketing of properties in the area. James, who set up The Avenue in July 2021, believes that the property in Tansley, would suit a family.

He said: “The property dates back to 1936 and was modernised by the current owners just over 10 years ago.

“It is a beautiful family home with a high-spec; the kitchen was hand-crafted and fitted by Matlock-based Pre-Eminence and the black Rangemaster cooker compliments it perfectly.

“There is Karndean flooring throughout the hall and dining room, an enviable view from the bay window in the living room and the large family bathroom comes complete with Versace wall tiles.”

It is the grounds, though, that is the piece de resistance; impeccably maintained by the current owners – who are keen gardeners – there is a large garden to the right of the property featuring mature shrubs, blooming rhododendrons and an ornamental fishpond. A quaint summerhouse is tucked away in the corner of the garden whilst the double garage has ample space for up to four cars.

James added: “Derbyshire is one of the most sought-after counties in the UK right now and we expect this property to attract a lot of interest.

“Nationally, the average rate of house price growth may have slowed – but we’re busier than ever.

“We currently have a variety of properties for sale with The Avenue and we pride ourselves on giving every little detail careful consideration when we market a person’s home. So many people feel that moving house is up there as one of life’s most stressful events and we like to make the whole experience more like a concierge service.

“I love finding creative ways to market homes, to capture a buyer’s attention and create a strong demand. My attention to detail and obsession for perfection over every photograph, video clip and written word means that I leave no stone unturned when it comes to selling homes!”
