A beautifully extended 1930s family home in one of Radcliffe-on-Trent’s most sought-after locations

A rare opportunity to acquire a traditional 1930s, bay-fronted semi-detached home, tucked away in one of Radcliffe-on-Trent’s most popular and well-regarded locations.

Grandfield Avenue is ideally placed for enjoying the best of village life, with the picturesque cliff-top walks and local play parks close by, whilst the village centre is just a short stroll away. Here you’ll find a good range of shops, schools, everyday amenities and public transport links.

The property itself has undergone a comprehensive programme of modernisation and improvement in recent years, including substantial extensions and a superb loft conversion. The result is a deceptively spacious three-storey family home offering approximately 1,900 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation, with excellent living space and a layout that works particularly well for modern family life.

The ground floor provides a welcoming entrance hall with turning staircase and gallery-style landing, a useful cloakroom, attractive bay-fronted lounge, versatile playroom/home office and an outstanding open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. Recently remodelled and extended to the rear, this impressive room features a vaulted ceiling, three Velux roof windows and a wide run of aluminium bi-fold doors opening directly onto the rear garden.

The first floor offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms and an impressive four-piece family bathroom, whilst the loft conversion has created a fantastic principal bedroom suite. This superb space includes a large dormer window, walk-in wardrobe, luxury en-suite shower room and elevated views across the garden and rooftops of Radcliffe.

Outside, the gardens are another real highlight. The house sits nicely back from the avenue behind a gravel driveway, with a pathway leading to the main side entrance beneath a covered canopy porch. To the rear is a generous lawned garden with a desirable south-westerly aspect, raised timber decked terrace and enclosed boundaries.

For buyers looking for a home that combines traditional character with modern family living, in a location where you can genuinely enjoy village life, this is a particularly impressive property.

Playroom/Home Office – 4.45m x 2.39m (14'7 x 7'10)

The rear extension has created a wonderful sense of volume, with a vaulted ceiling and three large Velux roof windows with fitted blinds allowing plenty of natural light into the room. A substantial run of aluminium bi-fold doors opens almost the entire rear elevation, creating a fantastic connection with the raised timber terrace and garden beyond.

The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped, with a range of high-quality integrated appliances including side-by-side eye-level single ovens, matching combination microwave oven, state-of-the-art induction hob with built-in extraction, tall larder fridge, full-size dishwasher and a cold filtered and boiling hot water tap over the sink.

The adjoining living area provides plenty of space for a large sofa or corner suite, making this a fantastic room for everyday family life as well as entertaining.

Utility Room – 2.62m x 1.93m (8'7 x 6'4)

Top Floor Principal Bedroom Suite – 5.38m x 4.78m (17'7 x 15'8), including wardrobe

The suite is accessed via a landing area with useful access to loft/eaves storage, a tall double linen cupboard with shelving and a Velux roof window.

The bedroom itself is a superb size, with the large rear window making the most of the elevated, south-facing views. There is also an additional Velux roof window, access to the en-suite shower room and a partitioned walk-in wardrobe fitted with clothes rails and shelving.

This is a lovely private space away from the rest of the accommodation and really adds another dimension to the house.

En-Suite – 2.62m maximum x 1.78m (8'7 maximum x 5'10)
A beautifully finished en-suite shower room, branching directly from the principal bedroom and featuring a rear-facing window and attractive tiling.

The room is fitted with a high-quality suite comprising twin wall-mounted wash basins, WC and a good-sized shower, with contemporary fittings completing the space.

Outside
The property is set back from Grandfield Avenue behind a gravel driveway, providing useful off-road parking and giving the house an attractive approach.

A pathway leads down to the main side entrance beneath the covered canopy porch. To the rear, the garden is a particularly good feature, enjoying a desirable south-westerly aspect and plenty of space for family use and outdoor entertaining.

Immediately outside the open-plan living space is a raised timber decked terrace, perfectly positioned to take advantage of the bi-fold doors and providing an ideal spot for summer dining and relaxing. Beyond this is a generous, landscaped south west facing lawned garden, with fenced boundaries providing privacy and a good degree of seclusion.

In all, this is a wonderful example of a traditional Radcliffe-on-Trent home that has been thoughtfully transformed for modern family living. The combination of character, generous three-storey accommodation, superb open-plan living space, impressive principal suite and sought-after village location makes this a home that's well worth viewing.
