Pickering Drive, Blackfordby

Built by Davidsons Homes and benefiting from the remainder of its NHBC warranty, this stylish family home is perfectly positioned in a sought-after development. A standout feature is the private, landscaped rear garden – an increasingly rare find. Early viewing is highly recommended.

Location: Blackfordby is a charming village just northwest of Ashby-de-la-Zouch, offering easy access to the National Forest and its many leisure activities. With excellent transport links to Burton upon Trent, Swadlincote and the nearby M42, the location is ideal for commuters. The village itself has a strong community spirit, a well-regarded primary school, a church and the welcoming Black Lion Pub, known for its local beers and relaxed atmosphere.

Accommodation: Nestled behind a pretty canopy porch and framed by a mature planted pathway, 16 Pickering Drive offers a warm welcome. Step through the sage green front door into a spacious reception hall where your first glimpse of the stylish kitchen is ahead of you. To the left, there’s a handy guest cloakroom, while a turning staircase leads up to the first floor. To the right, a generously sized lounge features a wide walk in bay front facing window.

The heart of the home is the stunning open-plan living, dining and kitchen space, seamlessly blending three areas into one. The contemporary high-gloss grey kitchen is fitted along two walls, offering extensive storage and a range of integrated appliances. There’s ample space for a dining table and a comfortable seating area, perfect for entertaining. Full-height picture windows flood the room with natural light, while double French doors open onto the landscaped garden, inviting the outdoors in.

Upstairs, you’ll find four well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom. The principal bedroom features built-in wardrobes and a private en-suite with a double-width tiled shower, WC and wash hand basin. The remaining three bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom, complete with a white suite, stylish tiling, a bath with an overhead shower, pedestal wash hand basin and a WC.

Outside: A driveway to the side provides parking for at least two vehicles and leads to a brick-built garage. Gated side access opens to the beautifully landscaped rear garden, a private oasis with a large patio area, hot tub and a tree lined backdrop.
