This one has been quietly perfected.</p><p>Completed in June 2020 by respected local builder David Ashley Developments, 4 Lisset Close sits at the head of an exclusive development of just fifteen homes, on a generous corner plot of around 0.34 acres. The current owners bought it new — and in the years since have transformed it into something rather more considered than the average modern detached house.</p><p>The headline is the energy performance. Nineteen solar panels, each with its own microinverter, sit on the south-west facing roof and generated 6.28 MWh over the past twelve months. Paired with 13.5 kWh of battery storage — which cuts over automatically if the mains grid goes down — they have lifted the property from a B to a full EPC A rating, a figure achieved by a tiny fraction of homes in the country. Crucially, the entire system is owned outright by the vendors and included in the sale: there is no lease, no roof rental agreement and no third-party interest, so the benefit passes cleanly to the buyer. Heating and hot water run on a NEST system that can be managed remotely, with smart-switched immersion control. There is full fibre broadband direct to the property and ethernet data cabling to every room.</p><p>Behind the oak-framed porch and its purple front door, the entrance hall sets the tone: porcelain tile underfoot, underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, and an oak-and-glass staircase rising through a double-height, galleried void.</p><p>The heart of the house is the kitchen, living and dining room — remodelled by the current owners in 2025 and running the full depth of the property. A large island in quartz anchors the space, with matching quartz worktops and full-height splashbacks, a run of integrated AEG appliances (induction hob with externally venting extractor, oven and grill, combi microwave, warming drawer), integrated Bosch fridge and freezer, and an integrated Whirlpool dishwasher. At one end, a double-height seating area with a large Velux window fills the room with light; at the other, bi-fold doors open onto the rear patio and the garden beyond.</p><p>A separate second kitchen, utility and beverage centre sits alongside — quartz worktops, integrated fridge, and the practical space that keeps the main room looking as good as it does.</p><p>The sitting room is a properly separate reception: ceramic tiles, underfloor heating, an electric fireplace set into a fully lined chimney flue ready for a log burner should you want one. A ground floor WC completes the floor.</p><p>First Floor<br/>The principal bedroom occupies one wing, with a dressing room fitted with wardrobes and shelving, and a large en-suite bathroom tiled floor-to-ceiling in porcelain, with a double vanity unit, freestanding bath and a generous double shower.</p><p>Two further double bedrooms — currently used as home offices, and well suited to it — share a "Jack and Jill" en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower. A dedicated first floor laundry room houses the washing machine and dryer, with a separate airing cupboard alongside.</p><p>Second Floor<br/>Two more bedrooms, each with its own facilities. One has full-width Sliderobes fitted wardrobes with mirrored doors and an en-suite shower room. The guest bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and a dressing area, together with an en-suite bathroom with double vanity unit and bath.</p><p>Outside<br/>The garden is the reason people will fall for this house.</p><p>Approximately a quarter of an acre of it, south-west facing, and developed over six years into something genuinely special: winding gravel paths, raised beds, deep planted borders, a stone fountain, a wildlife pond with its own filtration and water feature, and a considerable collection of trees, shrubs and plants. A fully insulated and heated garden room — double-glazed, with power and lighting and its own patio — makes a superb studio, office or summer sitting room. There is also a wooden summerhouse with decking and a large shed with mains power, lighting and its own distribution board.</p><p>And a point of genuine historical interest: the course of Ryknild Street, the Roman road, runs directly through the garden.</p><p>Ceramic tiled pathways and patios wrap around both sides and the rear of the house, with slot drainage and full-height gates to either side. A gate at the top of the garden opens directly onto woodland and country paths — the fields beyond are the view from the back of the house, and they are not going anywhere.</p><p>To the front, a block-paved driveway provides parking for four vehicles alongside a slate water feature, and leads to the integral double garage (approx. 5m x 5m) with a Hormann electric door, interlocking floor tiles, and a 7kW tethered EV charging point that reaches both inside the garage and out onto the drive.</p><p>Security is handled by a Ring doorbell camera with intercom and three further mains-powered Ring spotlight cameras covering the rear door, the garden stairs and the garden room, with PIR lighting front and rear.</p><p>Location<br/>Lisset Close is a quiet, fully adopted cul-de-sac of just fifteen homes in Oakerthorpe, on the edge of open Derbyshire countryside and within easy reach of Alfreton, the A38 and the M1. Amber Valley offers the rare combination of genuinely rural surroundings with fast connections to Derby, Nottingham and Sheffield.</p><p> <br/>Tenure: Freehold. EPC Rating: A.
