Lucknow Drive, Mapperley Park, Nottingham, NG3

Elite Homes are delighted to bring to market this impressive house in the prestigious and popular Mapperley Park conservation area. This home occupies a large corner plot (approx.1/3 of an acre) with a highly desirable flat garden and gated flat driveway, a true bonus in this somewhat hilly area. The property offers versatile family accommodation, spread over three floors, including a superb Master Suite and impressive Conservatory.

Built in the 1930s within the original grounds of the Grade II Mapperley Hall this home is surrounded by tree lined roads yet is only a mile from Nottingham city centre. Approached through electric gates the house sits within a mature, well-maintained and sunny garden. The driveway has ample room for five cars.

Location
Mapperley Park remains one of Nottingham's premier residential areas. The wide tree lined roads offer a tranquil haven just 10 minutes drive from the train station, 20 minutes from the M1 and 40 minutes from East Midlands International Airport. Both Mapperley Top and Sherwood, with their wealth of coffee shops, restaurants, bars and local shops, are within walking distance.

There are two tennis clubs and a cricket ground all within Mapperley Park and the prestigious Nottingham public schools are close by making this one of Nottingham's most highly regarded residential areas

Ground Floor Accommodation
The downstairs accommodation is adaptable to flex to the varying needs of a growing family. The property is large enough for the family to spread out yet offers well proportioned rooms that allow for everyone to come together. The downstairs layout has a lovely flow that makes this family home great for entertaining.

The Dining Kitchen, with Amtico flooring, has all the usual built in appliances like a dishwasher, fridge, microwave, five ring gas hob and electric oven. It also has the added bonus of offering the warmth, comfort and delights of Aga cooking. With space for informal dining this Kitchen is a great hub for the family.

A separate good sized Utility Room has plumbing for a washing machine and a tumble drier as well as acting as a Boot Room and Wine Storage.

A modern, hole in the wall, multi-fuel stove makes an attractive focal point in the Sitting Room. A large archway leads through to a spacious triple aspect Dining Room with French doors into the garden.

A delightful contemporary Conservatory, with Porcelanosa flooring, links the Dining Room to the Kitchen making a wonderful entertaining space as well as becoming the heart of the house over the summer months.

In addition there is a roomy Snug / Library that has a very different vibe with its original Arts and Crafts fireplace. This room would work equally well as a Playroom, Music Room, TV Room or Home Office.

The downstairs is finished off with a Karndean floored hallway, two Guest WCs and a garage with electric door.

Outside
Outside is a delight in this sunny garden with plenty of space for 'zones' allowing a family to easily have a children's play area as well as plenty of room for al fresco dining, barbeques and general entertaining. The flat lawn 'zone' is perfect for family sports like French cricket, football, boules and short-lawn tennis. Rhododendrons, camellias, daffodils and magnolia's make this a wonderful spring garden whilst the herbaceous border and hydrangeas give colour though out the summer. Apples, pears and a delicious plum tree add a final touch to this private, secure garden.
