KOOROON, 2 NORTH CRESCENT, BOTTESFORD

A SPACIOUS FOUR-BEDROOM SEMI-DETACHED HOME WITH THREE RECEPTION ROOMS, A GENEROUS GARDEN PLOT AND EXCELLENT POTENTIAL.

Built in 1955 and occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.12 acres, Kooroon is a deceptively spacious semi-detached home offering approaching 1,200 sq ft of accommodation. With four bedrooms, three reception rooms, a particularly versatile ground-floor layout, gardens to both the front and rear, a lengthy driveway and a single garage, this is a home that offers considerably more than might first be expected.

For the current owners, Kooroon has been home for the past 26 years. It has been the setting for family life, treasured memories and the enjoyment of everything that comes with living in a thriving village community. Having raised their family here, the owners are now ready for their next chapter and to downsize, leaving behind a home that has clearly been very much loved.

For its next owners, there is an exciting opportunity to take this wonderful amount of space and make it their own. Whether accommodating a growing family, working from home or simply enjoying the flexibility of having additional rooms, Kooroon offers a wealth of possibilities.

THE ACCOMMODATION

GROUND FLOOR

As you step inside, you are greeted by a particularly generous entrance hall, immediately giving a sense of the space available throughout the property. Stairs rise to the first floor, with doors leading to the ground-floor fourth bedroom and the main sitting room.

Positioned to the front of the property, the lounge is a comfortable reception room, with a fireplace that remains in use, providing a traditional focal point. Built in 1955, the property also retains fireplaces in bedroom one and bedroom four, typical of the age of the home, which now remain as decorative features.

Continuing through the ground floor, a rear hallway provides access to a useful downstairs cloakroom and leads through to the kitchen and dining area.

The kitchen is a particularly enjoyable space within the home and one that has been well appreciated by the current owner. Fitted with a solid oak Shaker-style kitchen, it offers a timeless style, complemented by a gas hob, stainless steel sink and a window overlooking the rear garden. It provides a lovely setting for everyday cooking and dining, with the garden beyond.

A further reception room, currently arranged as a dining room, offers excellent versatility. Providing a separate space for everyday family life, relaxing or entertaining, it could equally lend itself to a formal family room, an additional sitting room or, depending on the needs of its next owners, a space for independent living, working from home or multi-generational arrangements.

Beyond this room is a further versatile space, previously enjoyed as a study and also used as a single bedroom when grandchildren came to stay. This additional room further enhances the flexibility of the ground floor, offering scope for a home office, hobby room or additional reception space.

FIRST FLOOR

The first floor continues to offer excellent accommodation, with three bedrooms served by a family bathroom.

Together with the fourth bedroom on the ground floor, the property provides four bedrooms in total, with the added benefit of three reception rooms and a layout that can adapt to suit a variety of lifestyles and changing family requirements.

THE GARDEN & OUTSIDE

One of Kooroon's real highlights is the generous plot, extending to approximately 0.12 acres, with gardens to both the front and rear.

The rear garden has been enjoyed in a number of ways by the current owners and offers plenty of scope for its next chapter. Established borders provide the framework for a garden to enjoy, while a dedicated allotment area offers an opportunity for those with a passion for growing their own fruit, vegetables and seasonal produce. Whether continuing with the existing beds or creating a productive kitchen garden, there is plenty of room to enjoy a more self-sufficient approach to outdoor living.

There is also a metal garden shed with a tiled floor, with established grapevines growing over it, adding another lovely feature to this corner of the garden. An additional area is currently used for keeping chickens, further demonstrating the versatility of the outside space.

For those who enjoy gardening, growing their own produce, keeping chickens or simply having room to create different areas for relaxing and entertaining, this is a garden with plenty to offer.

The owners have particularly appreciated the positioning of the neighbouring properties, with the arrangement of the surrounding homes and bungalows to the rear helping the garden to feel private and not overlooked.

To the front, a long driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a single garage, completing the practical outside accommodation.

BOTTESFORD – VILLAGE LIFE & AMENITIES

The village is particularly well regarded for its range of local amenities, providing much of what you need for day-to-day living. There is a selection of independent shops and convenience stores, including a traditional butcher, village stores and Post Office, alongside cafés, pubs, restaurants and takeaways.

Further facilities include a medical practice, dental services, pharmacy and a community-managed library, while the village also offers a variety of sporting clubs, recreational facilities and social groups.

Beyond the everyday amenities, Bottesford has a welcoming community atmosphere, with village events, clubs and activities bringing residents together throughout the year. The surrounding countryside and neighbouring Vale villages offer plenty of opportunity to enjoy walking, cycling and the outdoors.

It is this combination of facilities, community and countryside that makes Bottesford such an appealing place to put down roots.

TRANSPORT & CONNECTIVITY

Despite its attractive village setting, Bottesford is well positioned for access to the wider East Midlands.

The A52 provides convenient road connections towards Nottingham and Grantham, while the nearby A1 and A46 offer further routes for regional and national travel.

Bottesford has its own railway station, with services connecting towards Nottingham and Grantham, providing onward connections to the wider rail network. Grantham also offers access to the East Coast Main Line, with services towards London King's Cross.

The surrounding market towns of Bingham, Grantham, Newark and Melton Mowbray are all accessible by road, while Nottingham provides an extensive choice of shopping, leisure, employment and cultural facilities.

For those looking to enjoy village living without feeling disconnected from the surrounding towns and cities, Bottesford offers a particularly appealing location.

EDUCATION & SCHOOLING

For families, Bottesford offers the convenience of primary and secondary education within the village itself.

Bottesford Church of England Primary School caters for children aged 4–11 and is situated on Silverwood Road. For secondary education, The Priory Belvoir Academy provides education for students aged 11–16, also within the village.

There are also local pre-school and early years childcare facilities, including Bottesford Pre-School, providing options for younger children.

Having these educational facilities close to home adds to Bottesford's appeal as a place for family life, alongside its wider range of village amenities, recreational facilities and community activities.

AGENTS NOTE - Please be advised that the property details may be subject to change and must not be relied upon as an accurate description of this home. Although these details are considered materially correct, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed, and they do not form part of any contract. Where a title plan map image is available, we will use this in all marketing, but if it is not, we will add lines to what we believe are the boundaries of the subject property. All services and appliances must be considered 'untested', and a buyer should ensure their appointed solicitor collates any relevant information or service/warranty documentation. Please note that all dimensions are approximate/maximums and should not be relied upon for floor coverings.

ENHANCEMENT NOTICE - To present the property in its best light, some external images may have been enhanced to reflect more typical seasonal conditions (for example, sunnier skies or dry ground). These adjustments are purely visual and do not change the property itself in any way.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING REGULATIONS - We are required by law to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all parties involved in selling or purchasing a property. We take the responsibility of this seriously in line with HMRC guidance and ensure the accuracy and continuous monitoring of these checks. Our partner, Movebutler, will conduct the initial checks on our behalf. They will contact you once your offer has been accepted to conclude, where possible, a biometric check with you electronically.

As an applicant, you will be charged a non-refundable fee of £30 (inclusive of VAT) per buyer for these checks. The fee covers data collection, manual checking, and monitoring. You must pay this amount directly to Movebutler and complete all Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks before your offer can be formally accepted. 

Referral Fees - We offer various services through our trusted partners to support buyers and sellers. While you are welcome to choose any provider, if you require a solicitor to manage your purchase or sale, we can refer you to one of our trusted, experienced local solicitors with whom we work regularly. We may receive a referral fee of up to £200 if you choose their services. We can refer you to one of our qualified financial advisors for mortgage or remortgage assistance. We may receive a referral fee, typically 30% of the procuration fee they collect from the lender.
