A very rare opportunity has arisen to create a family home in a prime and highly desirable location in the centre of Wollaton Village with the additional bonus of a substantial building plot that has outline planning permission (22/02147/POUT) for a 1.5 storey dwelling with a private access drive. The existing property is a large detached home that lends itself to refurbishment and extension, currently providing excellent sized accommodation with four double bedrooms, three reception rooms, a superb hall and galleried landing. The garden is particularly impressive and extends to the rear to over 150 ft, whilst at the front a large drive allows for a number of vehicles to be parked off the road.
The full plot area is a little over 0.6 acre and the proposed building plot occupies an area of the garden where a covered outdoor swimming pool currently stands.
Wollaton Village is one of the most prestigious and sought after areas of Nottingham and is just a few moments from Wollaton Hall and Deer Park. Directly opposite the property, is a sports field that is home to Wollaton's Tennis, Cricket, Football and Bowling Clubs. The village also boasts a Day Nursery, Library, Community Centre and a popular Public House. Excellent road links to Nottingham City centre and the A52 and M1 are close to hand. The current Energy Rating for the property is E - 52.
Please note that the property and building plot are to be sold as a single transaction.
