Lee Road, Nottingham, NG14

A home of rare distinction, this beautifully restored Victorian property represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a residence where period elegance meets contemporary sophistication. Perfectly positioned within a sought-after setting, it offers privacy, charm, and an impressive degree of versatility.

Retaining its striking Victorian architecture, the house has been thoughtfully enhanced with sensitive modern updates, quality appointments, and meticulous craftsmanship throughout. Notable original features – including high ceilings, picture rails, ornate coving, ceiling roses, and newly installed double-glazed timber sash windows – ensure the character of the home is preserved, while offering all the comfort expected of modern living.

The interiors have been finished with a refined eye for detail, balancing timeless style with a warm and welcoming ambience. The property has further benefited from significant upgrades, including a complete rewire, new central heating system with boiler, radiators, and plumbing.
This is a truly remarkable home that combines heritage, elegance, and modern practicality in one of the area’s most desirable locations.

Ground Floor Accommodation

The grand reception hallway immediately sets an impressive tone, with rich wood panelling, period-style tiled flooring, and an elegant door with arched glazing. Positioned at the heart of the home, the hallway serves as a striking spine, with a beautifully crafted staircase rising to the semi-galleried first-floor landing. Bathed in natural light, it enjoys a seamless flow from front to rear, enhanced by a glazed door with fanlight, opening onto the gardens beyond.

The sitting room is both gracious and inviting, centred around a working marble fireplace and framed by a charming bay window overlooking the gardens. Opposite, the living kitchen offers a perfect balance of style and functionality. Flooded with natural light, and enhanced by decorative coving and a ceiling rose, the dining space leads effortlessly into the bespoke fitted kitchen. Designed with both flair and practicality, it boasts granite work surfaces, a central island, integrated appliances, full-height storage, and a Smeg range cooker (available by separate negotiation).

Further ground floor accommodation includes a well-appointed utility room with twin sinks and granite counters, a dedicated study ideal for home working, and a stylish cloakroom with period-inspired fittings.

First Floor Accommodation

The semi-galleried landing provides a fine approach to three beautifully proportioned double bedrooms, complemented by a luxurious family bathroom featuring a clawfoot bath, separate shower, and Burlington basin. The principal suite is a true highlight, offering fitted wardrobes and an elegant en-suite complete with freestanding bath and separate shower cubicle. A further staircase ascends to the attic room – a versatile space ideally suited as a studio, guest suite, or creative retreat, finished with timber floors, Velux window, and insulated roof.

Outside

The property is gracefully set within a substantial, fully enclosed corner plot, enhanced by mature planting and a selection of private seating areas. Landscaped gardens unfold vibrant borders, and a charming wraparound pathway with a south-facing lawn to the front, framed by newly planted trees, offers both beauty and seclusion.

A gravelled, gated driveway provides generous parking and leads to a detached garage (18'0" x 12'4"), equally suited as a gym if desired. Additional outbuildings include two versatile structures with power and lighting – one fitted with base units, under-mounted sink, tiled flooring, and splashback – further extending the home’s practicality and appeal.

It should also be noted the plot provides excellent potential to further extend the home leading off the kitchen.
