Elm House Grange Road, Edwalton

ELM HOUSE Grange Road, Edwalton, NG12

Elm House sits on one of Edwalton's most prestigious roads, a six bedroom detached home of genuine substance, where scale, light and craftsmanship have been drawn together with quiet confidence. It does not shout. It holds its own, and lets the quality speak.

THE ARRIVAL

First impressions matter, and Elm House makes its own before you have crossed the threshold. Secure electric gates and considered security features open onto a generous, private driveway with ample parking for family and guests alike. The house sits calm and assured behind mature planting, framed and screened, offering the kind of privacy that is increasingly hard to find and impossible to overstate. You arrive, and the world outside softens.

A WELCOME WITH PRESENCE

Step inside and the tone is set at once. A central reception hall opens the house up around you, anchored by a striking feature staircase with a glass balustrade that lifts light through every floor. Ceilings are high. Proportions are generous. Windows are expansive, drawing daylight deep into every level and giving the interior an ease that cannot be added later. This is design of real substance, considered rather than decorated, and it carries through the entire home.

THE HEART OF THE HOME

At the centre of everyday life sits an impressive open plan living kitchen, a space made equally for quiet family mornings and for evenings when the house is full. Full height sliding doors draw back onto the garden, dissolving the line between inside and out. In summer the whole space opens to the light and the lawn. In winter it draws in around the warmth. It is, quite simply, a room to live in.

ROOM FOR EVERY MOMENT

Beyond the kitchen, the ground floor has been arranged for the realities of modern family life. A formal living room offers a calmer, more composed space to gather. A versatile playroom or media room adapts to however life is lived, for children now, for films and quiet nights later. A well appointed utility and boot room keeps the day to day in order, so the beautiful spaces stay beautiful. Every room has been given a purpose, and room to breathe.

REST AND RETREAT

The first floor holds a beautifully arranged collection of bedroom suites. Chief among them is the principal bedroom, a master suite in every sense, complete with a bespoke Carla Webster dressing area and an elegant en-suite bathroom, the kind of space that makes the end of the day feel like an occasion. It also had air conditioning for when you need to escape the heat.

The further bedrooms are equally generous, two served by high specification bathrooms and walk in showers. Throughout, the bedrooms feature built in wardrobes designed to sit seamlessly within each room, storage that feels part of the architecture rather than added to it.

The second floor is currently arranged as guest accommodation, two substantial bedrooms served by a further shower room, giving visitors a retreat of their own. Close enough to feel part of the home, private enough to let guests settle and stay a little longer. Equally, this floor would make a wonderful games room, playroom or cinema room, ready to adapt to whatever your family needs. Six bedrooms in total, and not one of them an afterthought.

THE GARDEN

Outside, the home continues to give. A large, south facing lawned garden stretches in front of the house, bordered by mature planting that affords a high level of seclusion the kind you find in a conservation area. This is a garden that catches the sun through the day. A generous terrace provides the natural setting for outdoor dining, for entertaining, or simply for a morning coffee in the quiet accessed by two glazed doors from the house allowing outdoor to flow inside. Private, established and beautifully framed, it is as much a part of the home as any room inside it.

VERSATILITY, BUILT IN

A detached double garage adds practicality and possibility in equal measure. It is currently fitted out as a high end home gym, a space the current owner loves and uses as part of her day to day life, and it could equally serve as a studio, a workshop, or simply garaging, according to the life you want to lead. Above the garage, a private annex is currently arranged as a Pilates suite, and could be effortlessly reimagined as a home office or playroom, offering valuable, self contained flexibility away from the main house.

EDWALTON, AND A LIFE WELL PLACED

Location is everything, and Elm House has just that. Edwalton is one of the most sought after suburbs south of the city, leafy and established, with tree lined streets and a designated conservation area that protect its quiet, timeless character. West Bridgford's cafes, bars, restaurants and boutiques are close at hand. The home falls within a highly regarded school catchment, with some of Nottingham's finest schooling, state and independent, within easy reach.

Nottingham City centre is within 3 miles driving over Trent Bridge, The A453 and A46 give access to the M1 making the wider country and the daily commute equally straightforward. It is that increasingly rare combination, a private, peaceful home that is also beautifully connected.

Nottingham train station is within 3 miles and East Midlands Airport 11 miles Also making it a well connected location.
