5 bedroom detached house for sale

From a mere kerbside inspection it is impossible to fully appreciate the overall size of the property and the magnificent privacy and the size of the extensive plot on which it now sits following the purchase of adjoining land. For those who are looking for space, space and more space and a magnificent private garden with a further gated access to the garden... then this is the one for you!

After months of extensions, alterations, brick dust and clever design work, the current owner has created 'the house that everyone is looking for' (just have a read through of these rooms) Reception Hallway with galleried landing, the largest open plan Living Dining Kitchen that we have seen this year with a feature central island, separate Sitting Room, a Play Room / Snug, a Home Office, Utility room, and a Cloakroom. A feature galleried landing, Master Bedroom suite with En-suite Shower Room and Dressing Area, a beautiful Family Bathroom with a 4 piece suite, a further, stunningly beautiful shower room & 3 further Double Bedrooms complete the first floor accommodation.

This substantial, thoughtfully remodelled, refurbished and extended four bedroom family home is located within a private setting and cul-de-sac, with only 4 other properties, in the picturesque country village of Gunthorpe, and enjoys 3,337 sq ft (310 sq m) of immaculately presented accommodation (the presentation throughout gives the impression that the kitchen, the bathrooms, the light oak doors, skirtings and architraves, the central heating radiators and pipework, the decor and carpets throughout... were all completed within the last few months - simply beautiful.

For those enjoying a change in working environments, there is a Home Office or (Bedroom 5) to the ground floor. The gardens and ground should put this one to the top of your viewing list with fabulous and bucolic views across the rear gardens to the farmers' fields beyond.

Why choose Gunthorpe? Well… two very popular village pubs, walks along the adjacent River Trent, two superb restaurants, Village Play Group, a Village Church, a very popular Primary School, renowned restaurants and public houses and further facilities can be found in the adjacent village of Lowdham including local shops, a railway station and Doctors’ surgeries, Brownies and Guides Packs... it’s a village with plenty to do!

There is a bus service to Bingham, Radcliffe and Nottingham with a train station at Lowdham (approx.1 mile) and Bingham (approx. 3 miles). The village is also serviced by the A52 and A46 giving access to Nottingham, Newark, Leicester and Grantham linking further afield the A1 and M1.

The property would be particularly ideal for families either upsizing or locating into this pretty village which is well positioned for commuting to local towns and cities as well as ease of access to the market town of Bingham and its wealth of amenities. Gunthorpe is also within the catchment area for the GOOD Ofsted rated Toot Hill Secondary School within Bingham.
