4 bed cottage for sale

The Barn, 5 Manor Court, Bramcote, Nottingham NG9

A period four-double bedroom cottage, located in a private secluded courtyard development, set around sumptuous communal gardens as well as substantial private gardens. Exuding character throughout, this spacious family home is in a prime residential location, and we highly recommend a detailed viewing to fully appreciate the accommodation on offer.

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, in a private courtyard development is this farm building (attached to the Tudor Manor House) dated late 1800’s which was then converted to a cottage in 1925 and this one was the one owned by the architect who designed the conversions of all of the farm buildings in the courtyard

This period property forms part of manor court, these buildings originally being, part of the larger estate of Bramcote Manor House, one the significant historical homes in the area owned by a number of founding families, including the Hanley's, Sherwin's and Longden, names that are still known today.

What makes manor court extremely special is the beautiful tranquil environment set around a sumptuous, shared courtyard style garden, with pond which attracts and abundance of wildlife, and a shared private road with two access points: One onto Town Street with a remotely controlled five bar gate and one from Peachey Way, next to the cottage.

The property enjoys its own private substantial gardens which are set to the rear of the property and have lawns and mature beds and plenty of seating areas.

This charming cottage offers an abundance of original features, the current owner has styled the property and preserved the character, making it a comfortable yet spacious family home.

There is a generous farmhouse style family kitchen, great for socialising and entertaining, a generous living room with open fireplace and formal dining room that could equally be used as an additional sitting room etc. There are four well-proportioned bedrooms, a principle with en-suite shower room, and there is a family bathroom with a period style suite, including a rolled bath with clawed feet.

The property is centrally heated with an oil-fired boiler and there is an Aga Range, oil fired that is the centre piece of the family kitchen. There is a single garage to the adjacent block with others, with parking for one vehicle in front.

Manor Court is located within the Bramcote conservation area and whilst giving the illusion of seclusion, it is far from isolated and being extremely well positioned for local schools for all ages and good road networks linking Nottingham and Derby (The A52), the vibrant market town centre of Beeston is just over a mile away which offers a great variety facilities, a thriving day and night time economy, again with great transport links including bus, trams and rail.
