Bridle Road, Nottingham, NG14

The Property
Welcome to this charming 3 / 4 bedroom detached home and small-holding nestled on the edge of Burton Joyce with spectacular views over the surrounding countryside. Perfect for anyone who wishes to grow their own food and enjoy a bit of the good life.

Extensively improved by the existing owners, it now functions as an established small-holding (approx 0.25 acre plot) designed using permaculture principles. This includes a raised kitchen garden, 2 greenhouses and a large brassica cage. There is 2500 litres of rain-water harvesting in potable tanks delivered by jet-pump to the whole development. There is a long-established meadow. Fruit trees and a wildlife pond have been added.

There are the equivalent of about 8 garden sheds across the plot, all with electricity. One currently houses chickens which can be left for the lucky new owners if they wish! A well-established composting system is in operation to provide everything your food will need to grow.

The house has been improved following similar principles. It has been externally insulated using non-toxic wood-fibre. A new solar system with recyclable battery technology has been installed which provides sufficient electricity for the majority of the year.

Upon entering through the hallway you are greeted by the spacious but cozy living area with log burner. This is the original heart of the home. An extension to the back has doubled the size of the property to provide a modern open-plan kitchen-diner with bi-fold doors straight into the kitchen garden. Beyond this is the bathroom and master bedroom, also with patio doors into the garden (used as a second reception room by the current owners).

There are additional bedrooms at the front of the property plus a loft conversion. A second toilet is situated opposite the main bathroom and a laundry room adjoins the kitchen.

Being situated close to the very end of Bridle Road, you can walk or cycle straight out onto a network of bridleways that can take you over to the village of Lambley, through to Gedling Country Park and Mapperley Top or down to the river Trent.

Burton Joyce centre is a few minutes walk down the hill. Here you will find a thriving village with several pubs, including The Nelson next to the river Trent which was runner up in the Observer food-monthly awards 2022. There is a co-op supermarket, post-office, pharmacy, doctor’s surgery, vets and several takeaways.

Burton Joyce primary school has an Ofsted ‘Good’ rating. There is a train station with links to Nottingham and a regular bus service through the village.
