Cottesmore Road, Lenton, Nottingham NG7

Beautifully Proportioned 3 Bedroom 1.5 Bathroom & 2 Reception Residence, Occupying An Enviable Position With Large Rear Garden On the Ever-Popular & Highly Desirable Cottesmore Road in The Heart Of Lenton

PDM Estates are delighted to present this beautifully proportioned three-bedroom detached residence, occupying an enviable position on the ever-popular Cottesmore Road in Lenton... Behind its attractive period façade lies a home of genuine distinction, offering proportions seldom found within detached homes of its era. Believed to have been individually commissioned rather than constructed to a standard developer design, the property enjoys an exceptional sense of space throughout, with an imposing entrance hall, remarkably generous first-floor landing and an unusually large family bathroom, all reflecting a level of design rarely encountered in comparable three-bedroom homes.

Beautiful original timber flooring, elegant bay-fronted reception rooms and impressive ceiling heights combine to create an atmosphere more commonly associated with the substantial character homes of Central London than a typical Nottingham detached property. Every room feels considered, balanced and exceptionally spacious, giving the home an understated sense of prestige that is immediately apparent upon entering.

Approached via a hard-standing driveway providing off-road parking for numerous vehicles, the property immediately offers an impressive first impression. A secure timber gate opens to extensive side access, providing further parking potential and leading to the beautifully landscaped rear garden. Stepping through the traditional entrance porch, you are welcomed by an exceptionally spacious reception hall, wider than would typically be expected within a home of this age, the entrance creates an immediate feeling of grandeur, beautifully complemented by original timber flooring, exposed woodwork and an elegant staircase rising to the first floor.

Positioned to the front of the property, the elegant living room is flooded with natural light through an attractive walk-in bay window. Beautiful original flooring, generous proportions and a contemporary media wall incorporating a modern feature fireplace combine to create a wonderful family living space that perfectly balances period charm with modern design.

Flowing seamlessly from the hallway, the formal dining room, currently occupied by the current vendors as a gym, providing the perfect setting for both family meals and entertaining guests, whilst enjoying pleasant views over the rear garden. Beyond, the fitted kitchen offers an excellent range of wall and base units, generous work surface space and ample room for appliances, with the added convenience of a downstairs WC completing the ground floor accommodation.

Ascending to the first floor, the generous proportions continue. Unlike the narrow landings commonly found within detached homes of this period, the expansive central landing enhances the sense of openness throughout the first floor and further reinforces the individuality of the property's original design.

The principal bedroom enjoys an attractive bay window and offers exceptional floor space, creating a luxurious principal suite. The second double bedroom is equally impressive in size, whilst the third bedroom, utilised as an office, provides an ideal guest room or nursery.

Completing the first floor is an outstanding family bathroom, a room that immediately sets itself apart from those typically found in comparable homes. Exceptionally generous in size, it comfortably accommodates both a full-sized bath and an oversized walk-in enclosed shower, creating a luxurious and highly practical family bathroom that perfectly complements the proportions found throughout the rest of the home.

Continuing the theme of exceptional proportions, the property also benefits from a large loft space with impressive ceiling height, already fully boarded and fitted with lighting. Whilst currently utilised for storage, the scale of the space offers exciting scope for a superb loft conversion, presenting purchasers with the opportunity to create additional living accommodation, such as a luxurious principal suite, further bedroom or dedicated home office, subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations.

Externally, the property continues to exceed expectations. The rear garden is considerably larger than average for a property of this style and has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of distinct outdoor living spaces. A raised entertaining terrace provides the perfect setting for outdoor gatherings, whilst the pergola-covered seating area offers a more intimate space for dining and relaxation. Mature planting, attractive brick retaining walls and low-maintenance landscaping combine to create a wonderfully private garden that feels both peaceful and established.

The generous plot also allows for extensive side access alongside the property, providing space for numerous vehicles in addition to the already substantial driveway, making it an ideal choice for growing families, car enthusiasts or those requiring secure storage for trailers, caravans or recreational vehicles.

Located within one of Lenton's most desirable residential settings, Cottesmore Road enjoys excellent access to Nottingham City Centre, the Queen's Medical Centre, the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University, making it perfectly positioned for professionals, families and academics alike. A wide selection of supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, leisure facilities and highly regarded schools are all within easy reach, whilst excellent public transport links and convenient access to the A52, M1 motorway and wider road network ensure effortless connectivity across the region.

This is a home that offers far more than first meets the eye. Combining exceptional proportions, individual character, versatile living accommodation and a beautifully landscaped garden within a generous plot, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive detached residence unlike anything else currently available within this highly sought-after location.
