THE PROPERTY AND TOWN
This is a truly exceptional home, with no comparison within the town - personal inspection is highly recommended in order to truly appreciate this full of character, piece of Castle Donington history.
Offered to the market for the first time in twenty years is this sumptuous period property that was for many years part of the Nottingham Convalescent Home. Stunningly refurbished over a number of years the property retains many period features such as original windows, fireplaces, floors plus ceiling cornicing and roses. Accommodation is comfortably in excess of 3,000 square feet, the building standing on a carefully maintained plot around 0.3 of an acre.
Accessed through an entrance porch which opens to a reception hall and inner hallway with pristine Minton tile floors and two outstanding main reception rooms leading off, the impressive lounge and the real show-stopper, the elegant dining room - perfect for both family living and home entertaining. Additional rooms to the ground floor include a study, ideal for home working, plus the fully-fitted breakfast kitchen which has a utility room and guest cloakroom leading off.
To the first floor, accessed by an original staircase, is the wonderful, spacious main bedroom measuring 20' 10" x 18' 2" with sash windows providing views over the rear garden and beyond. There is an equally impressive second bedroom, with full height bay window to the rear. The first floor is complemented by a third double bedroom and gorgeous bathroom with a period style suite.
To the upper floor is double bedroom four and an area of attic space that is prime for conversion to additional living space.
