The three-bedroom, detached property on Green Lane, off Nottingham Road and Berry Hill Lane, was constructed back in 1953. And nine years ago, it sold for £227,500.
But the current owners have carried out a remarkable, comprehensive programme of revitalisation and modernisation to both house and garden, creating a first-class, contemporary home of high calibre.
Now it is on the market with Mansfield estate agents Richard Watkinson and Partners for £425,000 – and is worth every penny, especially as it sits within a desirable suburban location.
Possibly the most eyecatching feature of the improvement work is a wonderful and quirky summer house and bar within a beautiful, landscaped, south-facing rear garden that also includes a pond, two decked patios, a central lawn, plants and shrubs.
But in truth, the whole property, which now spans 1,708 square feet of spacious accommodation, is in immaculate condition – as you will find out if you browse through our photo gallery below.
Decorated in neutral tones throughout, the house includes Karndean flooring to the majority of the ground floor, where an entrance porch and hall leads to a large lounge, snug or home office, open-plan kitchen, extended orangery with dining area, utility room, WC and steps to a cellar. The first floor contains three double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom.
As well as the rear garden, there is a wide, concrete driveway at the front that provides off-street parking space and sits next to a walled garden with shrubs and trees and a raised lawn.
