Guide Price £425,000 - £450,000
A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented top-floor apartment within an imposing red-brick Victorian residence on Cavendish Crescent, one of the finest addresses within Nottingham's exclusive Park Estate. Arranged over the top of this handsome period property, Flat 3 blends genuine Victorian character, soaring ceilings, exposed timber beams and a wealth of original detail with a beautifully considered contemporary finish, offering an open-plan kitchen and living space, three bedrooms and two well-appointed bathrooms.
The Park Estate is widely regarded as one of the most desirable and distinctive residential addresses in the country. Laid out from the mid-nineteenth century on land that once formed the medieval deer park of Nottingham Castle, the estate was developed for the Duke of Newcastle and designed in large part by the celebrated Nottingham architect Thomas Chambers Hine, whose work here helped create what remains one of the largest and best-preserved collections of Victorian villa architecture in Britain. To this day The Park is a privately managed, gated estate, mature trees and characterful gatehouses giving it a rare sense of seclusion and calm. Yet for all its tranquillity, the estate sits immediately beside Nottingham Castle and its grounds, and within a short, level walk of the shops, restaurants, theatres and transport links of Nottingham city centre. It is this combination of privacy, pedigree and position that makes The Park such an exceptional and enduring place to call home.
THE ACCOMMODATION
Hallway 14'0" x 8'7" (4.27m x 2.61m)
A generous entrance hallway sets the tone for the apartment, finished in warm, insulated solid wood flooring that flows through into the kitchen and living space beyond. A skylight window draws natural light down into the space, while a run of built-in coat hooks and doors to the principal rooms keep everyday life effortlessly organised the kind of welcome home that makes you want to linger, kick off your shoes and unwind. It has the added bonus of a store room which will accommodate ample storage space.
Kitchen 9'1" x 16'10" (2.77m x 5.12m)
Open in style to the adjoining living room, the kitchen is fitted with a handsome range of soft grey shaker-style units beneath quartz worktops, complemented by a full run of integrated appliances and a large central island that doubles as a breakfast bar and social hub. An exposed timber beam overhead nods to the building's period roots, while the window over the sink frames leafy treetop views, the perfect spot for a morning coffee before the day begins. The insulated solid wood floor runs seamlessly through from the hallway.
Living Room 12'5" x 16'10" (3.78m x 5.12m)
Bathed in light from a striking multi-pane sash window, the living room is a wonderfully sociable space beneath a vaulted, beamed ceiling that gives real presence to the room. Open plan to the kitchen, it is an easy space for entertaining, family life or simply relaxing with a view over the treetops and rooftops of The Park beyond. The insulated solid wood floor continues here, underfoot warmth meeting timeless good looks.
Primary Bedroom 16'10" x 14'2" (5.14m x 4.32m)
A magnificent principal bedroom, generously proportioned and full of period charm, with a decorative fireplace as its focal point and a window overlooking the treetops of The Park. There is ample space for a super-king bed, seating and a full range of furniture, together with excellent wardrobe storage, a genuine sanctuary at the end of the day, finished with soft carpet for cosy, quiet comfort underfoot.
Ensuite Jack & Gill To Primary Bedroom 8'1" x 8'6" (2.45m x 2.60m)
Privately serving the adjacent bedroom, this well-appointed en-suite is fitted with a walk-in rainfall shower, contemporary vessel basin and WC, finished in sleek porcelain tiling, a smart, spa-like start to the day without ever leaving the comfort of your own room.
Bedroom Two 8'6" x 8'6" (2.58m x 2.60m)
A charming bedroom benefitting from its own private Jack & Gill en-suite, ideal as a guest room, child's bedroom or peaceful home office. Carpeted throughout for comfort, with a window bringing in plenty of natural light.
Bathroom 9'2" x 16'6" (2.79m x 5.02m)
A truly impressive family bathroom, thoughtfully zoned to include a deep corner whirlpool bath tucked beneath the eaves, an elegant twin-basin vanity unit with feature mirrors and lighting, and a separate WC, a wonderful space in which to unwind after a long day, or to get ready for one ahead.
Store 4'10" x 4'9" (1.46m x 1.45m)
A useful internal storage cupboard, perfect for stowing away suitcases, linens or the vacuum cleaner, a small, practical luxury that makes everyday living that much easier.
Loft Access
The apartment further benefits from loft access, offering a generous additional storage footprint ideal for keeping seasonal items, luggage and belongings neatly out of sight.
Outside
Residents also benefit from their own private storage shed, providing valuable additional space for bikes or general overflow storage.
