Old Grantham Road, Whatton, Nottingham, NG13

Positioned in a private and secluded spot on the edge of the Vale of Belvoir, this impressive detached family home forms part of a small collection of bespoke dwellings. Completed in the late 1990s, the property was designed with a thoughtful balance of traditional character and modern practicality, offering around 2,500 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation. More recently, it has undergone tasteful updates, blending contemporary styling with classic features.

The home is beautifully maintained throughout, with a modern kitchen and bathrooms, updated double glazed windows, and gas central heating and is offered to the market with no upward chain.

Accommodation
The entrance lobby provides an ideal area for shoe and coat storage, which in turn leads through to the main entrance hall, laid with oak effect flooring and displaying the bespoke oak and glass staircase rising to the first floor.

The beautifully refurbished bespoke kitchen is positioned to the south elevation, designed with both style and practicality in mind and is fitted with Barrett & Swan, shaker style cabinetry, finished in heritage tones, complemented by Silestone work surfaces, a Belfast sink with brushed metal mixer tap, and under-unit lighting. Storage is further enhanced by an integrated Butler’s pantry with a wine rack and basket drawers. Siemens appliances include a five-ring gas hob with extractor, combination microwave/oven with warming drawer, dishwasher, and fridge-freezer. A ceiling beam, inset downlighters, dual-aspect windows, and French doors to a private courtyard garden complete this welcoming space.

Adjacent to the kitchen, the utility room has been upgraded to match the kitchen and provides additional storage and workspace. Features include a full-height larder unit, marble-effect worktop, inset stainless steel sink with mixer tap, plumbing for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer and a rear access door.
Off to the left hand side of the entrance hall is the generously proportioned, dual aspect sitting room that connects seamlessly into the impressive garden room at the rear, forming a partially open-plan living area ideal for both day-to-day use and entertaining. The feature fireplace with exposed brick surround, quarry-tiled hearth and inset log burner provides a striking focal point, complemented by side alcoves. Oak ceiling beams and the exposed brickwork enhance the character and flow of the room.

The garden room provides a spacious reception area, spanning the full width of the property, linking the sitting room with the dining room to provide a versatile, free-flowing layout. With its westerly outlook over the rear garden, the room enjoys excellent natural light, with features to include a pitched ceiling with skylights and downlights, exposed brickwork, tiled flooring and electric underfloor heating. Double-glazed French doors, complete with integral blinds, open directly to the garden, further enhancing the connection between indoors and out.
The well-proportioned dining room is ideal for formal entertaining, it is open plan to the garden room at the rear of the property and is also accessible via the main entrance hall, making this a practical and inviting space.

The fourth reception room is a very versatile space, currently set up as a home office, however, it could serve equally well as a snug or playroom. With a dual aspect overlooking the rear and side gardens, oak effect flooring and exposed ceiling beams, it is both bright and characterful.

First Floor
The oak and glass staircase ascends from the entrance hall to the galleried first floor landing. There are four bedrooms at first floor level to include the principal bedroom which enjoys a dual aspect with countryside views, fitted wardrobes, and a three piece en suite shower room, holding a WC, vanity wash hand basin, chrome heated towel rail and a shower enclosure. There are three further double bedrooms, one to the front of the property and two to the rear, all of which boast fitted wardrobes and all are served by a modern family shower room with a large, double-length enclosure as well as a wall mounted WC and vanity wash hand basin.

Outside
The property occupies a private, generous plot of approximately 0.43 acres. Approached via a private driveway, there is ample off-road parking leading to a double garage with electric up and over doors alongside internal power and lighting. The landscaped front garden has been planted with shrubbery and evergreens designed for low maintenance, with a prominent Wisteria vine cloaking the front of the property. The rear garden enjoys a south-westerly aspect, offering a high degree of privacy with lawned areas, mature borders, and multiple seating terraces. There is a concealed, portioned area of the rear garden, holding a large storage shed as well as a log store. A separate vegetable garden with raised beds, a summerhouse, and views across neighbouring paddocks complete the outdoor space.
