Ashbourne, Manor Park, Ruddington

Smiths Property Experts are favoured with instructions to market this impressive detached home occupying private and mature grounds extending to approximately 0.3 of an acre in the highly sought-after Manor Park conservation area in Ruddington.

The property has been a wonderful and loved home to the current owners for 30+ years, offering comfortable and well-proportioned living accommodation over two floors in this private and exclusive residential setting. Within a few minutes' walking distance is the fully serviced village centre and a full host of amenities, and public transport options into Nottingham City centre.

Built in 1980, the house is of modern construction. There are full mains services, and the house benefits from double glazing throughout. In our opinion, the property is presented in very good condition, and as a blank canvas for a purchaser to put their own stamp on and potentially update in a modern vernacular.

The living accommodation is laid across two floors, and comprises, in brief, an entrance porch, a hallway, a WC, a dining room, a large sitting room with direct garden access, a snug, and a study. There is also a fully fitted kitchen and a separate utility room with direct driveway access.

Upstairs, the central landing leads in turn to four good-sized bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom has plentiful storage and separate en-suite facilities.

Set behind a sweeping gated driveway, the property sits in exceptional grounds extending to 0.3 of an acre or thereabouts. There is an oversized detached double garage, off-road parking for numerous vehicles, and two main garden spaces to either side of the main house. The gardens are private and mature, with central lawns and fully stocked borders.

Of particular note are the aged and protected trees. There is a superb garden room installed to the Northerly edge of the grounds, with insulation, power and lighting. The room has bi-folding doors opening onto the gardens. There is also a covered entertaining terrace on the right-hand side.
