Something Very Special…

This charming detached property began life as two mill workers' cottages, originally built around two hundred years ago. 'Cobblers Cottage' has been thoughtfully transformed over the years and has now been elegantly restored and brought thoroughly up-to-date by the current homeowners with refined modern touches but still showcases period characteristics. Three floors provide flexible accommodation with an easy flow. The ground floor plan with its succession of very spacious rooms includes an entrance hall and a fabulous multi-purpose reception room, including a lounge and dining area. Plus, there is a gorgeous connected sitting room. Then there’s the big, beautifully fitted kitchen, full of country character, first-class appliances and contemporary style. There’s a separate practical cloakroom / utility room, and to the rear is a superb orangery with doors opening out to the rear patio. Upstairs on the first floor, there are four bedrooms with a modern en-suite to the principal bedroom and a sophisticated bathroom. The top floor offers an adaptable bedroom and another en-suite. 

Step Outside…

An electric gated entrance opens onto a driveway providing ample parking. A detached garage building also incorporates an attached office or studio that is adaptable for a variety of uses. Surrounded by landscaped grounds, this magnificent stone-built cottage enjoys the perfect blend of privacy and luxury in a picturesque setting. The striking architecture and beautiful façade with distinctive exterior detailing are a reminder of the building's past. To the rear is a garden with a sunny patio and an expanse of lawn edged with a fence and hedge boundary and established trees. A secondary gated entrance from the road leads to a vast hardstanding for an abundance of parking and an additional lawn to the side. In all, the plot covers approximately 0.58 of an acre.

“Situated on the fringes of highly favoured Bestwood Village along a sought-after stretch of unspoilt countryside boasting picture-perfect rural surroundings, this is a peaceful pocket of the county. A well-connected location, it is served by the amenities of Bestwood Village and Hucknall Town Centre with its shops and supermarkets, whilst Nottingham is easy to reach for city centre services. Good travel links are also within easy reach, including the M1. For families, there is a village primary school, and there are several secondary schooling options close by. There is a traditional country pub in neighbouring Papplewick. The local landscape of open fields and woodland is steeped in North Nottinghamshire history, with Bestwood Country Park and historic Newstead Abbey both nearby.” - Nick Lawton eXp
