Sunnybank Cottage

Nestled within the highly sought-after village of Marsh Lane, Sunnybank Cottage is a truly exceptional character home occupying a substantial plot extending to approximately 1/2 acre and offering beautifully renovated accommodation that perfectly blends period charm with modern family living. Completely unique in its design and setting, the property provides versatile living space, stunning gardens and endless potential, making it a rare opportunity in one of the area's most desirable locations.

Stepping inside, the care and attention that has gone into the renovation is immediately apparent. The current owners have sympathetically modernised the home throughout, retaining its character and charm while introducing high-quality contemporary finishes that complement the property's heritage.

The ground floor accommodation has been carefully designed to balance character and comfort. The stylish kitchen diner has been sympathetically updated to a high standard, providing a practical and attractive space for everyday living, whilst retaining the charm expected of a cottage of this nature. The delightful lounge is full of warmth and personality, centred around a feature log-burning stove that creates a cosy focal point and an inviting atmosphere throughout the seasons.

Adding further versatility is an additional reception room positioned to the side of the property, currently offering excellent flexibility as either a formal dining room, home office, playroom or snug depending on individual requirements.

The ground floor accommodation continues with a useful utility room, a contemporary shower room and a generous double bedroom. This arrangement creates an ideal opportunity for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or those seeking ground-floor bedroom facilities.

To the first floor are three beautifully presented and well-proportioned bedrooms, each thoughtfully styled and enjoying their own individual character. A modern family bathroom serves the first-floor accommodation, completing the internal layout.

Externally, the property is equally impressive. Occupying a generous plot, the gardens have been carefully designed to create a series of private outdoor spaces that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons. A tiered layout incorporates various seating areas, a decked entertaining and BBQ terrace, dedicated children's play space and a hidden garden retreat to the rear, surrounded by mature trees, established planting and colourful borders. The result is a wonderfully private and picturesque setting that feels a world away from everyday life.

Further enhancing the property is a private driveway providing ample off-road parking, together with a substantial double garage offering excellent storage, workshop potential or further development opportunities, subject to any necessary consents.

Offering an exceptional combination of character, space, versatility and future potential, including further development potential subject to planning permission. Sunnybank Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly individual home in one of North East Derbyshire's most desirable village locations.

Marsh Lane remains one of the area's most sought-after villages, surrounded by beautiful Derbyshire countryside whilst remaining conveniently placed for Sheffield, Chesterfield and the M1 motorway network. Residents enjoy a strong sense of community, excellent local amenities, highly regarded schooling and an abundance of scenic walks right on the doorstep, making it a superb location for families and professionals alike.

REDBRIK SECUREMOVE™ - IMPORTANT PLEASE READ:
Redbrik is marketing this property with the benefit of Redbrik SecureMove™. Redbrik has introduced SecureMove™ to help speed up the sales process, minimise sale fall-throughs and give more certainty to both the Seller and the Buyer. Purchasers will benefit from the Buyer Information Pack (BIP), which we have created with our legal partners, to give buyers more information before they agree to purchase.

The pack includes:
TA6 (Property Information Form)
TA10 (Fittings and Contents)
Official Copy of the Register
Title Plan
Local Search*
Water and Drainage Search*
Coal and Mining Search*
Environmental Search*

(Redbrik has ordered the local, drainage, coal and environmental searches; we will add these to the BIP as they become available)

Redbrik SecureMove™ allows the sale process to be completed significantly quicker than a ‘normal sale’. This is because the legal work, usually done in the first four to eight weeks after the sale is agreed, has already been completed. The searches, which can take up to five weeks, are ordered on the day the listing goes live and are transferable to the successful Buyer as part of their legal due diligence.

Additionally, and on behalf of the Seller, Redbrik requires the successful Buyer to enter into a Reservation Agreement and pay the Reservation Agreement Fee of £595 (including VAT). This includes payment for the Buyer Information Pack and all the searches (which a buyer typically purchases separately after the sale is agreed).

Upon receipt of the signed Reservation Agreement, payment of the Reservation Agreement Fee, completion of ID and AML checks and the issuing of the Memorandum of Sale, the Seller will agree to take the Property off the market and market it as Sold Subject To Contract (SSTC).
