Situated in a prominent elevated position on a larger than usual plot, this detached family home presents potential for a number of uses. Currently, the property serves as a family home with accommodation over two floors, but could be extended to the side, making use of the generous frontage, thereby creating a larger house that still benefits from having a sizeable garden. There is also outline permission for construction of a detached dwelling. The accommodation comprises a large entrance hall with a cloakroom off, two large reception rooms, one of which has an Inglenook fireplace, a fitted kitchen with adjacent utility area. On the first floor, two large double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes, are complemented by a third bedroom and a bathroom that has a bath and separate shower. One of the notable features of the house, is the lovely tiered garden to the rear and the sizeable side garden. The back garden is on three levels, the top of which gives lovely views across to Bramcote Village and the Church Spire. Two of the levels have sheltered and private patio areas and there are a number of very well stocked borders and a lawn that surround. Arundel Drive is a popular residential area of Bramcote Hills that offers excellent local amenities including a good variety of independent and larger retailers on Bramcote Lane, transport links to Nottingham and Derby via the A52 and the Foxwood Academy (Ofsted rated Good)
