Derwent Avenue, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire NG18

Guide Price - £400,000 - £425,000

This architect-designed detached home offers over 2,700 sq ft of highly adaptable living space, thoughtfully arranged across two distinct living levels - ideal for multi-generational households, independent family living or those needing clearly defined zones within one home.

With a self-contained ground floor bedroom and bathroom suite alongside extensive first-floor accommodation including multiple bedrooms and a large reception space, the layout naturally lends itself to flexible living arrangements rarely found in traditional homes.

Properties offering this level of versatility are seldom available.

The accommodation is arranged across three clear zones:

• Main family living area to the rear of the ground floor
• Ground floor bedroom suite ideal for independent living
• Private first-floor accommodation with additional living space

This structure allows families to live together comfortably while maintaining privacy and independence where needed.

The property has been exceptionally well maintained and provides an exciting opportunity for buyers to update the kitchen and bathrooms to their own specification, with the guide price reflecting the potential to modernise and add value.

Ground Floor

The kitchen to the rear enjoys views across the garden and is fitted with an abundance of cupboards and worktop space, making it both practical and inviting. This flows into a particularly spacious utility room with sink, further storage and space for appliances. From here there is direct access to the rear garden and the double integral garage, which offers excellent space not only for parking but also for storage, bikes, tools or workshop use, with the convenience of internal access making it ideal for everyday family living. Additionally there is also the convenience of both a hot and cold tap inside the garage - great for cleaning cars and watering the front garden.

The dining room provides a lovely place for family meals and entertaining, opening through double doors into the large rear living room. With its own separate access as well, the living room offers excellent flexibility for layout, relaxing and hosting. It also benefits from double patio doors leading out to the rear garden which allows plenty of natural light to flood the room and a feature fireplace for those cosy winter evenings.

Also on the ground floor is a well-proportioned family bathroom with shower over bath, WC and basin, along with two beautifully presented double bedrooms positioned at the front of the property, both enhanced by large bay windows that bring in plenty of daylight and create an elegant sense of space - making them ideal for guests, older children, stylish home offices or multi-generational living.

First Floor

Upstairs, a light-filled landing overlooks the hallway below and leads to an impressive reception room, currently arranged as a cinema room. This is an exceptionally large space, complete with eaves storage and has access to a good sized shower room.

The master bedroom is located across the hall and is a very spacious double room, enjoying a Velux window and ample space for both sleeping and seating areas.

A second landing, currently used as a home office, leads to Bedrooms Three and Four - two cosy and well-balanced double rooms positioned to the rear, each benefiting from Velux windows and a peaceful outlook.

Outside

The front of the property is beautifully maintained, with a lawned garden and driveway parking for two vehicles, complemented by a second driveway to the side providing further off-road parking or secure access.

To the rear, the generous garden is mainly laid to lawn and features a greenhouse and access to the side driveway which has ample space for work vehicles or a motorhome - ideal for families, entertaining and those who enjoy gardening. A fitted outdoor tap in the rear garden adds everyday convenience, perfect for maintaining the lawn, greenhouse and garden areas with ease.

What The Sellers Love

They’ve especially enjoyed the peaceful, friendly neighbourhood and the wonderful sense of community, with the home perfectly positioned in a quiet family area close to local schools (Wynndale Primary and Samworth Academy). One of their favourite features is the beautiful natural light that fills the house throughout the day, with both morning and evening sun creating a warm, uplifting feel across the living spaces and bedrooms.
