Set in one of West Bridgford’s most sought-after streets, this bay-fronted Victorian semi offers spacious, characterful living across three bedrooms. The ground floor hosts a bright bay living room, a separate dining room and a long fitted kitchen with access to a lit cellar — useful for storage or conversion subject to checks. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and a generous main bedroom, plus a three-piece shower room. The house retains period features such as high ceilings and a decorative fireplace, and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.
The enclosed rear garden is private and low-maintenance, backing onto the Grantham Canal towpath for pleasant walks. Local amenities, strong schooling (including two Outstanding-rated secondaries nearby) and frequent bus routes into Nottingham make this an appealing family location. Broadband and mobile coverage are excellent, and the property sits in a very affluent, low-crime area.
Practical considerations: the home is constructed of solid brick (typical of its era) and likely lacks cavity wall insulation; the double glazing appears to pre-date 2002 and may be due for upgrading. There is only one bathroom and parking is on-street. Buyers should allow for modernisation if they want higher energy efficiency or additional bathrooms. The cellar offers potential but requires inspection for conversion feasibility.
Overall, this is a well-proportioned period family house in a prime West Bridgford setting that will suit buyers wanting character, space and school catchments — and those prepared to invest modestly to update heating, glazing and insulation to current standards.
