Set well back from Main Road in an attractive edge-of-village position, this substantially extended four-bedroom semi delivers generous, flexible living on an exceptional half-acre plot. The house is chain-free and offered freehold — a rare opportunity to secure a sizeable family home with double garage, extensive driveway parking and far-reaching countryside views. The recently refurbished kitchen and separate utility are practical pluses, while a large ground-floor double bedroom with an adjacent wet room makes multi-generational living straightforward.
The property requires full renovation and further modernisation throughout. Services and finishes will need updating to contemporary standards: glazing was fitted pre-2002, walls are cavity construction with no added insulation (assumed), and parts of the fabric and internal fittings are dated. These are realistic costs to factor in but also create scope to add value through targeted upgrading, insulating and reconfiguring where desired.
Internally the layout is adaptable — two large reception rooms, a sizable kitchen-diner, ground-floor bedroom, three first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. The accommodation suits growing families, those seeking a countryside lifestyle, or buyers prepared to refurbish for capital growth. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working, while nearby Ravenshead amenities, primary and secondary schools, and road/bus links to Nottingham and Mansfield keep everyday convenience close at hand.
Outside the grounds are a standout feature: mature hedging and trees surround large lawned areas to front, side and rear, with paved patio, outbuildings, and an outbuilding housing the central heating boiler. The plot’s size and setting present development, landscaping or extension potential (subject to consents). Viewings are recommended to appreciate the scale and possibilities, with the renovation requirement factored into the asking price of £375,000.
