In recent years the property has been extended at the rear and this has created a fantastic dining/living kitchen which has two sets of bi-folding doors leading out to the patio and garden at the rear. There is a private drive off Douglas Road which leads to a Presscrete parking area and a detached brick built garage block which could store up to three vehicles and therefore helps to make this an ideal home for a car or motorbike enthusiast or could be used as an ideal storage facility or a place to run a business from home. The property still retains many of its original features such as Minton tiled flooring in the reception hall, there are original pine doors leading to all the rooms on the ground and first floor levels, cornices, picture rails and exposed pine flooring in several rooms. Most of the windows have been replaced throughout this beautiful home with UPVC sash style windows so they are in keeping with the original windows when the property was built at the beginning of the last century and at the front the main reception rooms and bedrooms have fitted shutters which will remain at the property when it is sold. We cannot recommend enough the need for people in search of a period property in the West Nottingham area to have a full inspection of this lovely home so they can see the internal space provided and garaging at the bottom of the garden for themselves.The property stands behind a stone wall on Derby Road and is entered through the original front door which leads into an impressive main reception hall which has Minton tiled flooring and stairs with a feature balustrade and wood panelling to the side leading to the first floor and the original pine doors leading to the three reception rooms, ground floor w.c. and beneath the stairs there is a pine door taking you to a most useful basement. At the end of the main hall there is an inner hallway and a door leading to the superb living/dining kitchen which has been recently re-fitted with high quality Shaker style units and granite work surfaces and includes several integrated appliances which will all remain when the property is sold. This room really is a focal point of the property and we are sure it is the style of living space many people are looking for with its bi-folding doors leading out to the private rear garden and there is a large utility/laundry room off the reception hall which also provides excellent ground floor storage space. The first floor landing is also spacious and has large windows to the front which are Southerly facing and therefore provide a lot of natural light into this part of the property, two possible main bedrooms from the four bedrooms on the first floor with the largest room being at the rear and this is adjacent to the main bathroom, but could easily have an en-suite bathroom facility created with a small extension at the rear of the property and then there is a second possible main bedroom which has a full bathroom en-suite with a roll top bath and separate walk-in shower. There are two further double bedrooms to the first floor and a walk-in airing/storage cupboard which houses the main gas central heating boiler and hot water storage tank. From the first floor landing there is a second flight of stairs taking you to the second floor where the landing leads to two further double bedrooms, both of which have vaulted ceilings and there is a full bathroom which has a separate shower as well as a bath. The second floor space provides an ideal bedroom and a living area for older children who might want to have a certain amount of independent living while still being at the family home.

At the rear of the property there is a patio extending across the rear of the house and this includes a base for a hot tub and from the patio there is a recently laid astroturf lawn and a path which takes you to the bottom of the garden where the garage building is positioned.

Agents Notes

We believe a new owner could create a driveway on the right hand side at the front of the property to enable parking at the side of the house. This would be subject to having a dropped kerb and obtaining the necessary permissions for creating parking at the front.The driveway at the moment is off Douglas Road and this leads to the triple garage which is positioned at the rear of the property.
