This detached four-bedroom home on Mapperley Drive offers practical family living in a quiet Wakes Meadow cul-de-sac. The ground floor has two reception rooms, an open-plan kitchen/dining area that flows into a conservatory, plus a utility and cloakroom — useful for busy family routines. The tandem garage and block-paved driveway provide generous off-street parking for multiple cars.
Upstairs the master bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room; three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor. Bedroom sizes vary, with the fourth bedroom notably smaller and best suited as a study, nursery or occasional guest room. The property measures about 1,346 sq ft and was built in the late 1970s/early 1980s, so some buyers may wish to update finishes to their taste.
Outside, the rear garden is landscaped and well maintained, featuring a decked seating area, purpose-built bar and a pergola that creates a covered terrace — good for entertaining and family use. Front parking for three cars and the tandem-length garage add practicality, though the garage is long rather than wide, limiting side-by-side parking or larger vehicle storage.
Practical details: the house has mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing (installation date not specified) and is offered freehold with no onward chain. It sits close to Standens Barn Primary School and has easy access to Riverside Retail Park, making it a convenient pick for families seeking space, outdoor living and straightforward access to local amenities.
