5 bed detached house for sale

Greenacres, Ravenshead NG15

Set on the very edge of the ever-popular village of Ravenshead, Greenacres is an individually designed detached family home, thoughtfully created by the current owner and occupying an exceptional plot extending to over five acres.

This is a home that perfectly balances architectural character, space and privacy with the convenience of village life close at hand.

Ravenshead itself is widely regarded as one of Nottinghamshire’s most desirable villages, offering an excellent range of local amenities including shops, cafés, pubs, leisure facilities and well-regarded primary and secondary schooling. The village is particularly popular with families and commuters alike, benefitting from superb road links via the A60, A614 and nearby M1, providing straightforward access to Nottingham, Mansfield and further afield.

Approached via a private drive, Greenacres immediately feels special. Designed as a quirky yet practical family home, the property sits comfortably within its generous grounds, with sweeping gardens, established paddocks and a selection of substantial outbuildings. These include two double garages, a range of useful stores and sheds, and an impressive barn, which previously benefited from planning permission for conversion into a two-bedroom residential dwelling (planning lapsed December 2025), offering exciting future potential subject to renewed consent.

Internally, the house is both welcoming and impressive. At its heart lies a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, designed for modern family life and effortless entertaining, flooded with natural light and offering seamless views across the grounds. A separate, cosy lounge provides a more intimate retreat, while the orangery adds an additional layer of versatility, perfectly suited to relaxed evenings or entertaining throughout the seasons.

The accommodation is flexible and generous. The ground floor includes a fourth and fifth bedroom, with the fifth room lending itself equally well as a second reception room, family snug, home office or playroom, ideal for adapting to changing family needs.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three large double bedrooms, all well-proportioned and filled with light, alongside a contemporary family bathroom that completes the accommodation.

Greenacres is a home of rare individuality designed, not replicated offering space, privacy and lifestyle in equal measure.

With its expansive grounds, adaptable living spaces and enviable village setting, it represents a truly aspirational family home on the outskirts of one of Nottinghamshire’s most sought-after locations
