The Ridings, Bulcote, Nottingham, NG14 5GW

* GUIDE PRICE £500,000 - £525,000 *

A substantial detached property with spacious accommodation boasting many of the attributes associated with a quality family home such as an impressive open plan living/dining/kitchen space, second lounge, study, utility room, ground floor toilet & five bedrooms. 

Externally, the property benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking, an external store and beautiful gardens to three sides. 

The owners have carried out many improvements over the years. Of particular note is the creation of the open concept living/dining/kitchen zones; a fantastic part of the home in which to relax, dine and entertain family and friends. From here there are lovely views over, and two sets of French doors that open into, a beautiful, south-facing rear garden. 

The property is located on the Bulcote and Burton Joyce border and therefore benefits from an excellent range of local amenities. Stops on the Pathfinder 26 Bus Route between Nottingham City Centre and Southwell are extremely close to hand and there are some stunning riverside and country walks from the front door. 

Such family homes are a rare visitor to the open-market currently and early enquiries and viewings are therefore encouraged. 

GROUND FLOOR ACCOMMODATION 
A PVCu front door opens up into the ENTRANCE HALL where a staircase rises to the first floor and there are doors into the study, open-plan living areas and to a GROUND FLOOR CLOAKROOM with toilet and wash basin. A built-in cupboard provides for the storage of shoes and coats. The STUDY has a window overlooking the front garden and for those who work from home is considered a most suitable office space. The magnificent open-concept zones in the principal living area really do form the heart of the home; a fantastic space in which to cook, dine and relax with family and to entertain friends. There's a stunning outlook over the tropical themed rear garden that can be accessed by two sets of french doors. The large-scale window fills this room with natural light and in the LOUNGE a log burner set within the fireplace forms a lovely focal point. Adjacent to this is the DINING area where there's plenty of space for a table and chairs to accommodate a family. From here there is open access into the contemporary KITCHEN, fitted with a range of cupboards and incorporating two ovens, an induction hob and integrated dishwasher, fridge and freezer. There's an island unit providing further storage and a window overlooks the front. From the kitchen, there's access into an INNER HALLWAY from which the utility and second sitting rooms are entered. An important room in any family home; the UTILITY has a storage cupboard and wall shelving, a sink unit and is the perfect place in which to store larger household items such as the vacuum cleaner and ironing board. In addition, there's plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. The SECOND LOUNGE is a perfect part of this lovely family home in which to relax, read or listen to music. A large floor to ceiling window frames a stunning outlook over the garden and, in addition, there's a set of French doors that open into it. 

FIRST FLOOR ACCOMMODATION 
A window on the HALF-LANDING overlooks the front and offers a good level of natural light to the first-floor landing where there's a lovely feeling of spaciousness. From here there are doors into the FIVE BEDROOMS, bathroom, shower room and a separate CLOAKROOM with toilet. There are two landing cupboards; one housing the boiler (newly installed during 2023), the other perfect for storage. Four light-filled double bedrooms run along the rear of the first floor of the property with views out over the rear garden towards trees on neighbouring land. The fifth bedroom has a window overlooking the front garden. One bedroom has access via a pull-down ladder to a loft room with a skylight, power and light. The BATHROOM has a bath with a mixer-tap shower over it and a shower screen and there's a wash basin housed in a vanity unit providing storage. In addition to the bathroom there's a small SHOWER ROOM with an electric shower. 

EXTERIOR 
A DRIVEWAY at the front of the property provides off-road parking and leads to an EXTERNAL STORE with a garage door, ideal for the storage of bikes, lawnmower etc. A particular and notable feature of this lovely family home are the exquisite GARDENS; an absolute credit to the owners who have, over years, created a tropical oasis to enjoy and in which to relax. Encompassing three sides of the property, the gardens offer a high level of privacy and there are lawned sections, a decked terrace and a patio area all of which take advantage of the southerly-facing aspect. 

BULCOTE 
Bulcote is a highly sought after picturesque village situated between Nottingham and Southwell offering convenient road links to the A46 and A52 which, in turn, give access to the M1 and A1. The area is surrounded by open countryside and there's an excellent range of amenities in the neighbouring village of Burton Joyce including a Co-op Store, post office, takeaways, dentist and doctors surgeries, a library, cafes and pubs. 

Situated approximately eight miles north east of Nottingham city, Bulcote has good bus and rail links (from Burton Joyce Train Station) and therefore acts as a preferred commuter village for many of its residents. With access to both Primary and Secondary Education both judged as 'Good' by Ofsted, it is equally favoured by families. 

The facilities at nearby Victoria Retail Park in Netherfield, four miles away, include national retailers such as Boots, Halfords, Next, TK Maxx, B&Q, Costa, Starbucks, Morrisons, Sainsbury's and a M&S Food Hall.
