Welcome To Ellington - Prestige, character, and spacious rooms combine at the enviably detached Ellington, an imposing and handsome Victorian home nestled on Tattershall Drive, in the Park Estate.

Conveniently situated for ease of access into Nottingham, dating back to 1879, Ellington is one of the first 40 homes to have been erected in the prestigious Park Estate, a peaceful conservation area.

Ellington is a rare find as there are only 14 detached houses in a single occupation in The Park with 2 storeys and a flat garden.

Pulling off the tree lined Tattershall Drive, through the electric front gates, with fob and keypad access, there is plenty of parking for five cars on the driveway, alongside a single garage, served by power and with an up and over door.

Originally owned by a vicar and his family, Ellington was latterly divided into two flats, before being respectfully reunited, and refurbished by its current owners.

Characterful Arrival - A handsome home, whose imposing exterior precedes the wealth of original period features retained within.

Stepping through the arched entrance, emerge into the porch, whose high ceiling is inlaid with ornate plaster cornicing, with patterned Minton tiles underfoot.

Beyond, continue into the entrance hall, where the airiness of the porch is amplified by the high ceilings, traced in ornate coving and pretty ceiling rose.

On the right, the original curved staircase sweeps up to the first floor, with storage available underneath for coats and shoes.

A Warm Welcome - Light suffuses the drawing room, accessed on the left and with its original wood plank flooring honey toned underfoot. Traditional décor is subtle, with pops of colour from the restored coving and ornate ceiling rose above, hand painted by a local artist.

Views entreat from the impressive bay window, with another large window to the side, bring the outdoors in. Warmth emanates from the gas fire, within its attractive period surround. Warm in wintertime, in summer, the home remains cool, served by excellent air flow from the many doors and windows.

Wine And Dine - Next door on the left, sultry shades of lilac and mauve adorn the dining room, for an intimate feel, with original flooring and another bountiful bay window inviting light. A capacious room, with original gas fire, hand painted coving and ceiling rose, this room is wonderful when entertaining or on special occasions such as Christmas. An internal window provides a sneak preview of the garden room next door.

Providing refreshment on the ground floor, also off the entrance hall there is a large bathroom for guests, with bath and separate shower.

Light Filled Living - Moving through to the snug, the gas fire sits centrally, providing cosy cheer to the room, with fabulous garden views through the bifolding doors which create a seamless connection with the outdoors.

Opening up to the rear, parquet flooring flows out in the music room, where glazed double doors invite you through into the light and bright garden room, where original oak doors deliver you to the garden terrace for sunny summer afternoons sipping cocktails and enjoying family time.

A home with phenomenal flow, the music room also links seamlessly to a long and versatile room which flows along providing access through to the kitchen. With its whitewashed stone painted barrel-vaulted ceiling, this underground room was once thought to be a cold store for the original owners. Atmospheric with its uplit walls, it could serve well as a utility room, games room or even a study.

Family Time - Emerge into the spacious and sociable kitchen, where a deep royal-blue feature wall houses an inglenook, within which a gas Aga serves as a homely focal point, drawing family and friends to its comforting warmth. Easy accessed from the kitchen is the large boarded out loft with plenty of room for storage extending the length of the house.

With so much storage in the white farmhouse kitchen cabinetry, there is also a handy, shelved pantry, and utility room, housing the boiler.

In the summer months, enjoy alfresco dining with loved ones in the sheltered courtyard which provides access back through to the snug via bifolding doors.

Seamless Flow - Make your way back in via the snug from the courtyard, before reconnecting with the entrance hall and continuing through into the library, where fitted shelving provides space for your treasured collection. A fantastic room for a home office, there is space for a sofa in addition to your desk and chair, while inspirational views over the garden and the formal pond are framed by the large window. Consider opening up the fireplace, currently capped off, to imbue the room with further character and warmth.

Off the library there is another room currently used as a study, spacious and bright with views out to the garden on one side, and courtyard to another. Versatility is at the heart of this spacious family home.

Retracing your steps to the entrance hall, ascend the original staircase, saturated with natural light from the large, original windows on the turn, before arriving at the landing, an impressive space, with high ceiling, tulip cornicing and high skirtings. Light streams down from the automatic-opening and closing skylight above.

Soak And Sleep - Refreshment awaits on the left, in the beautifully refurbished bathroom, where tiling gleams to the lower half of the walls and underfoot, with classic floral wallpaper above. Enjoy a reviving soak in the roll top, claw foot bath, with traditional taps that harmonise with the solid wood vanity unit wash basin. Spritz your way into the day beneath the rainfall head of the spacious, wet room shower.

Back on the landing, turning left, reach a spacious guest bedroom, with marble feature fireplace with rounded hearth and ample space for a king size bed. Double windows frame views out over the garden ? a haven for wildlife ? and across the park beyond.

Sanctuary awaits in the master suite on the left, a capacious bedroom with original wood plank flooring, where south east facing double windows frame far reaching views out over the garden and parkland. Spacious and bright, with room for a sofa and all your wardrobes and drawers, the bedroom features a large ensuite, fully tiled, with twin showers and wash basins, with vanity unit storage beneath, alongside LED touch sensor mirrors, WC and heated towel radiator with underfloor heating.

Storage is found throughout the home, returning to the main landing to make your way to bedroom two, a bountiful bedroom brimming with light and benefitting from fitted wardrobes, peacefully looking out over the courtyard below.

Refresh in the private ensuite, beautifully tiled with wet room shower, wash basin and WC.

Turning left, next to the head of the stairs on the right, blue-green shades embellish the walls of a spacious bedroom, currently accommodating a four-poster bed and looking out over the front lawn and pond.

Next door, the final bedroom is sequestered away along its own hallway, with fitted shelving preceding stairs that lead down to the light-filled bedroom, with courtyard views to one side and views out over the front lawn and mature trees and pond to the front.

Outdoor Oasis - Outside, the glorious garden balances spaces for entertaining and relaxation with a respect for the landscape surrounded by lime trees and acers. The garden is a haven for nature and wildlife, with lush green lawns, herb gardens and vegetable beds to encourage pollinators and a variety of fruit trees including apricot, almond, pear and greengage.

The pond is a haven for wildlife, from goldfinches to foxes overnight. The lime trees along the border are a sight to behold, whilst the private courtyard is so secluded and peaceful.

Out And About - A village within the city, The Park Estate is a unique community environment in which to raise a family. A very sociable neighbourhood, the residents? association regularly hosts events including Shakespeare in the Park, Boules, Sunday Socials on Newcastle Circus and annual Safari Supper. There are expanses of green space to enjoy with private facilities including tennis courts, squash and bowls clubs.

Previously a deer park to The Castle, stroll around the grounds, or walk through the park to join the canal. Walk along the River Trent or head out on your bike to the Attenborough Nature Reserve.

Only ten minutes? walk from Ellington, seek a moment?s meditation beneath the boughs in The Arboretum.

With the city on your doorstep, just a 15?20-minute walk delivers you into the heart of Nottingham, where a host of shops, restaurants and amenities await, from medical centres and hospitals to sports centres, theatres and football grounds.

Pay a visit to Nottingham Castle or discover the bars and restaurants of Canning Circus. With every palette and cuisine catered for, sample every style from fast food to Michelin star finery at Alchemilla.

Families are well served by a range of schools including St Joseph?s Independent School and Nursery and The Independant Nottingham Boys School and The Independant Girls High School.
