Full Description
Elite Homes are pleased to offer for sale this six bedroom, late Victorian, home in the highly sought after Mapperley Park area. The property has beautifully proportioned rooms full of period features with the versatility to suit a modern family.
Lovingly restored, with great attention to detail and to a very high standard, this 1901 property, originally built for one of Nottingham’s premier lace merchants, offers a beautiful period home with all the mod-cons a 21st century family could need.
The care given to restoring this wonderful period home includes the overhauling the sash windows and guttering, and a new boiler. Attention to detail has been key in sourcing the right suppliers and craftsmen to sympathetically restore panelling and flooring where necessary.
The impressive Gladwyn House, standing in a plot of just over ¾ arce, is approached via electric gates and a long drive that opens onto well maintained gardens.
The Entrance Porch leads to the Reception Hall with wood flooring and Lincrusta walls. Currently used as a Music Room the entrance sets the tone for this beautiful period home.
The Sitting Room is light and airy with the original fire surround acting an impressive focal point for well proportioned, dual aspect room. A gorgeous bay window gives uninterrupted views of the mature gardens.
The Dining Room has a wooden floor and open fire with original surround including Art Deco tiles. Over looking the main lawn this is an excellent setting for formal dining.
Built in the 1930’s as a Hunting Lodge, the Games Room is a superb addition to this home. A great party space, with a parquet floor and a solid fuel stove, this room would make an excellent Second Sitting Room, Billiard Room or even Ballroom. There is also potential for this to be converted into an Annexe with it’s own WC facilities.
The Study has a feature fireplace and would work equally well as a Snug or TV Room.
The bespoke Smallbone of Devizes’ Kitchen is a cook’s dream and excellent for entertaining. The four oven Aga is complimented with an electric Aga module. Integrated appliances include a Miele microwave, a dishwasher, a fridge/freezer, a waste disposal unit and a built-in food processor. This spacious Kitchen has plenty of room to accommodate informal family meals and even room for a comfy seating area, which would give the Kitchen a contemporary feel in a period setting.
The separate Utility Room has plumbing for a washing machine and drier as well as additional larder space.
The Inner Hall has under-floor heating and Victorian style tiles and leads to the Second Staircase. Downstairs is completed with a Guest Cloakroom, Playroom/Office and access to a variety of dry and airy Cellars, one of which maybe suitable for storing wine.
The Master Bedroom Suite offers a large double room with original fireplace and dual aspect windows. There is also a bespoke cherry wood Dressing Room leading to a luxurious En-suite Bathroom with His and Her sinks, a freestanding bath and separate shower.
On the first floor there are a further three large double Bedrooms with period features as well as a Family Bathroom and separate WC.
There is also a Reading Room, which could be used as a Nursery if needed.
The second floor has two further large double Bedrooms and a Family Shower Room.
The loft space has potential to be converted into further living accommodation if required.
Outbuildings include a Garden Store/Workshop and a Gardener’s WC. The separate Garage block, with two electric doors, has a first floor currently ideal for storage but with potential to be converted into a Studio, Office, Teenage Den, Staff Accommodation or Annexe.
The gardens are, like the house, beautifully maintained. At the front is a sweeping driveway and a large lawn. The beds are filled with a variety of shrubs and some magnificent trees giving a maturity to the grounds which cry out for a Garden Party. To the side is a terraced area ideal for barbeques and al fresco dining.
At the rear is a courtyard garden, which includes a small pond and a raised vegetable bed. This is a tranquil space excellent for enjoying a morning coffee.
This is a period home that a modern family can live in comfortably with no more changes and yet there are areas like the cellars, loft and garage that could also allow the next generation to leave it’s mark on this beautiful historic home.
