Hobsons Acre, Gunthorpe

An excellent opportunity to purchase a tastefully presented detached home tucked away in a small cul-de-sac setting within this popular Trent side village with excellent road communications to local market towns.

The property has seen a thoughtful programme of modernisation over the years with a contemporary kitchen and bathroom as well as neutral decoration and benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating.

The property offers a deceptive level of accommodation large enough to accommodate families particularly making use of the local school but would appeal to a wider audience, whether it be from single or professional couples or even those downsizing from larger dwellings looking for a well maintained home within a village setting.

The accommodation comprises an initial entrance hall which is open plan to a versatile dining area and, in turn, the main reception which runs the full width of the property and benefits from a south westerly aspect into the garden. The kitchen is beautifully appointed having been modernised throughout with a generous range of contemporary units and integrated appliances. In addition there is a useful ground floor cloak room. To the first floor there are four bedrooms, three of which are large enough to accommodate double beds, as well as a contemporary first floor bath/shower room.

The property benefits from a good level of off road parking with a block set driveway and garage and an excellent sized rear garden that extends to approximately 100 ft in length with a south westerly aspect.

Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
