Description

WOODHOUSE PLACE
A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a truly special and notable property that forms an important part of Mansfield’s historical past. The earliest records date this Elizabethan residence to the 17th century, and Woodhouse Place comes to the market today for the first time in over 20 years. Thoroughly enjoyed as a family home over this time, the property has undergone some sympathetic improvements over its current occupier’s tenure, maintaining this special property at an excellent standard. The main house boasts substantial accommodation extending to approximately 4340sq.ft and is adorned with a wealth of characterful features which one would expect from a property of this era, however further accommodation can be found thanks to the detached 2-bedroom cottage which presents an ideal opportunity for relatives, guests or as an investment opportunity. Externally, Woodhouse Place also boasts a private plot of circa 0.75 acres, something so rarely found within an urban area that creates a very special retreat whilst remaining connected to the town centre. Overall, a unique proposition for prospective buyers seeking seclusion, sophistication and own their own slice of historical England.

MAJOR HAYMAN ROOKE
Whilst the house itself is steeped in history, its former owners and visitors are equally as deserving of recognition. Most notable to the property, and Mansfield in general, is Major Hayman Rooke. Former military man turned antiquarian, writer and pioneer in archology, Major Rooke resided at Woodhouse Place from 1777 to 1906 where his groundbreaking reputation grew within his fields of interest. The famous ‘Major Oak’ tree, formerly ‘The Queens Oak’ was renamed in his honour due his close ties to Sherwood Forest as a whole. As a recognition to Major Rooke’s contributions to the local area and history, Woodhouse Place received a ‘Blue Plaque’ in 2015 to serve as a historical marker and commemorate his link to this property.

THE ACCOMMODATION
Upon entering you are immediately greeted by a substantial reception entrance hall, the fantastic space this hall provides is an early indicator of the proportions which this home enjoys. Much of the principal ground floor accommodation leads off this hall which, in brief, comprises of: drawing room, sitting room, lounge, formal dining room, breakfast kitchen with pantry/ boot room leading off, fully fitted utility room, WC and staircase access to the useful cellars. To the first floor, there are 7 substantial bedrooms, 3 en-suite shower rooms and a family bathroom to be found.

THE COTTAGE
The detached 802sq.ft cottage/ annexe offers an excellent and versatile addition to the property which comprises of a dining kitchen, sitting room, 2 bedrooms and a shower room. Previously let out on a long-term basis, this space could perfectly suit a variety of uses such as for growing or independent children, multi-generational living for extended family needing to remain close by or as an investment opportunity.

GARDENS & GROUNDS
Externally, the Woodhouse Place enjoys approximately 0.75 acres of private and enclosed gardens to enjoy. Accessed via private gated entrance, upon entering the grounds you are greeted by a substantial gravel laid driveway which provides an excellent space for parking a number of vehicles. The remainder of the grounds comprise of a vast lawned area to the front of the property, well-established borders with shrubbery and hedging, a pond feature, established trees, a courtyard garden/ entertaining area and an additional pedestrian gate on to Mansfield Road.

LOCATION
The market town of Mansfield is located approximately 12 miles north of Nottingham City Centre and has developed substantially from its mining and textile industry past into a large residential and commercial district. Mansfield benefits from a broad selection of local amenities which you would come to expect from a town of its size. A theatre, restaurants, public houses, bars, banking, convenience stores, supermarkets, a shopping centre and numerous recreational activities are just a small selection of what Mansfield has to offer. The area benefits from an extensive transport network, with Mansfield railway station linking the town to Nottingham and Worksop, several bus operators with vast operating areas and a number of significant arterial roads.
