House For Sale £575,000
There are many attractions of this traditionally built detached house and it is clear that the owners have enjoyed it as a family home over a number of years. Immaculately presented accommodation is complemented by an equally lovely garden and consists of four reception rooms and four bedrooms. The master bedroom has a range of fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room and there is a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The ground floor rooms include a double aspect sitting room and sun room, a family room and study and a fabulous living room conservatory, all of which enjoy a view over the manicured rear garden. High quality fittings in the bathrooms and appliances in the kitchen are matched by a bright neutral interior, with gas central heating and double glazed windows throughout. The property also benefits from 2.5kw solar panels that have generated an income of around £850 over the past year.
Balmoral Drive is a well regarded and sought after location, close to a good variety of independent and national shops that are found in the nearby Bramcote Lane shopping area. The house sits within the catchment area of Bramcote College and Bramcote Hills Primary School. The A52 offers excellent links to Nottingham, Derby, the M1 and East Midlands Airport. The Energy Performance Rating for the property is D - 65 and we strongly recommend viewing.
