Stroll Along Birchwood Drive...

"The property stands in a quiet spot on Birchwood Drive, and this is a desirable postcode. It is an easy walk to the village shops where you will find a deli/butcher, greengrocers, a post office and a Nisa for all the essentials. The village also has a Sainsbury's Local to top up your weekly shopping and a farm shop for a taste of country life. There is a village hall, a church, a library, and a leisure centre. Necessary services include the doctor's surgery, a dentist, a chemist, hairdressers, and beauticians. There are friendly pubs and places to eat in or take away. For families there is primary education in the village and secondary schooling nearby. This is prime Robin Hood country with woodlands sitting alongside a patchwork landscape of rolling fields. Historic Newstead Abbey Park is also on the doorstep. For commuters, J27 of the M1 motorway is in close proximity, and Mansfield Town and Nottingham City Centre can be easily reached by car or bus.”- Nick Lawton, eXp
