The Glade, Melton Road, West Bridgford

The Glasshouse is built around light. There is glazing to the front, the rear and the roof, and a double-height glazed lobby that brings light right through the house. Framing the garden and at the same time allowing the garden to flow with the living space. Five double bedrooms sit over three floors.

The ground floor is about open plan living. The kitchen, dining and living room run together around a feature island, and the sliding glass folds back so the room opens level to the garden, with no step down and inside and out on the same floor. There is also a study, a laundry and a cloakroom.

Four double bedrooms are on the first floor. The principal suite has the top floor to itself, with a dressing room, an en-suite and a private balcony set among the tree canopies. This space could also be reimagined as a play or games room guest accommodation or any number of different uses.

The kitchen is as individual as each home designed and installed by Stephen Christopher. Premium quartz worktops, a lit feature island, a Bora induction hob, integrated Siemens ovens, a full-height Siemens fridge and freezer, a wine chiller and a matte black Quooker tap. The bathrooms are an oasis of calm with designer tiles and sanitaryware, heated floors and a freestanding bath in the principal en-suite. Wide-plank timber and porcelain run underfoot, and the bedrooms are carpeted.

Electric gates open onto a private drive, with a charging point for electric cars and a car port.

Much of The Glade is finished and lived in. Four of the eight homes are already sold, and the mature trees that give the development its name frame it at every point giving this development a unique setting within Edwalton.

Edwalton has everything close by. Coffee shops, supermarket, garden centre and Balance Health on the Wheatcroft Business Park at the top of Melton Road, and good schools within walking distance.

Melton road shops and Central Avenue in West Bridgford is less than ten minutes by car for independent shops, cafés and restaurants, and Nottingham is just over Trent Bridge. The countryside starts just beyond The Glade, along with some of the best restaurants in the Midlands, from The Plough at Normanton on the Wolds to two Michelin stars at Restaurant Sat Bains close by.

The Glasshouse is available December 2026.
