* DETACHED FAMILY HOME * 3 POTENTIALLY 4 BEDROOMS * 3 RECEPTION AREAS * GROUND FLOOR CLOAKS & UTILITY * ENSUITE & MAIN BATHROOM * DOUBLE GARAGE * PLEASANT LANDSCAPED PLOT * QUIET CUL DE SAC SETTING * WALKING DISTANCE HEART OF THE VILLAGE *

An opportunity to purchase a detached modern well proportioned home tucked away in a quiet backwater off a private driveway shared with only a handful of other dwellings, all positioned within walking distance of the heart of this highly regarded and well served Vale village.

Originally constructed in the late 1990s by Prowting Homes to a four bedroom design the property has been reconfigured to the first floor to three bedrooms, creating a large master suite with generous double bedroom and ensuite wet room. This has allowed for the integration of an electric lift that runs between the ground and first floors and this together with other adaptations has made it suitable for those with disabilities requiring ease of access but still retaining the ability to use both elements of a two storey home. Alternatively it would be reasonably straight forward to reinstate the original layout and adding a fourth bedroom.

To the ground floor there is an excellent level of accommodation which comprises two main reception areas leading off a central hallway with cloakroom off. The main sitting room has an aspect to the front and double doors leading through into the dining area of a large open plan living kitchen, which benefits from a pleasant aspect into the rear garden as well as linking into the useful addition of a conservatory at the rear. In addition there is a useful utility room with study off.

In addition to the current accommodation, the property benefits from planning approval for a substantial single and dual height extension to the side and rear, which adds to the onward potential, making it ideal for growing families with a higher budget, in effect creating a long term home.

The property benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating with upgraded boiler and solar heating panels which provide a boost to the hot water system during the summer months, as well as relatively neutral decoration throughout.

The property occupies a pleasant plot tucked away in a small cul de sac with open plan frontage, generous driveway and attached double garage. To the rear is a landscaped garden benefitting from an east to south aspect with seating areas, ornamental pond, lawn and pathway linking back into the conservatory.

Overall this is an excellent home with additional potential and viewing comes highly recommended.

The village of Bottesford is well equipped with local amenities including primary and secondary schools, a range of local shops, doctors and dentists, several public houses and restaurants, railway station with links to Nottingham and Grantham which gives a fast rail link to London's Kings Cross in just over an hour. The A52, A46 and A1 are also close by providing excellent road access.
