Patrick Road, West Bridgford

Overview

A beautifully presented, double bay-fronted period family home, located in a central position within the highly desirable Nottingham suburb of West Bridgford.

Offering off-street parking, a generous southerly-facing private rear garden, and boasting a wealth of original features throughout, this property combines charm and character with modern living. Just a short walk from the coffee bars and restaurants of Central Avenue, early viewing is strongly recommended as we expect a high level of interest in this fantastic family home.

The house is approached via a period arched reception porch, with its original wooden and glazed double doors opening into an entrance vestibule, which retains its original wall and floor tiling. A striking leaded stained-glass door then leads into the reception hallway, featuring impressive Minton tiled flooring, original staircase, gothic archways, high ceilings with coving, and useful built-in storage. A downstairs WC with two-piece suite completes the ground floor amenities.

The front reception room has a double-glazed bay window with fitted shutter blinds, a period marble fireplace with cast-iron and tiled inset, original coving, picture rail frieze, and stripped wooden flooring. The dining/playroom enjoys views over the rear garden, with chimney breast and stone hearth, built-in shelving and storage to either side, high ceilings, original coving, picture rail, and stripped wood flooring.

To the rear, the property has been extended to create a stunning open-plan living kitchen. This bright, spacious area enjoys a part-vaulted ceiling with Velux windows, bi-fold doors opening onto the garden, and a large window to the side. The kitchen is fitted with a contemporary range of wall and base units, integrated appliances, and a central island with stone worktops and ceramic induction hob. Stone flooring flows through the space, which also provides a generous dining area, lounge area with media point, and access to a side street-facing utility room with space for a stacked washer/dryer, coat storage, and external door to the side elevation.

To the first floor, the landing is lit by a side elevation window and features a further staircase to the second floor, with doors opening to three bedrooms. The main bedroom has a bay window with shutter blinds, original fireplace with cast-iron tiled inset, picture rail, and access to a generous en-suite shower room fitted with a contemporary three-piece suite, tiled walls, and front aspect window. The second bedroom enjoys views over the rear garden and features an original cast-iron fireplace and picture rail, while the third bedroom is fitted with built-in storage and also overlooks the garden. The stylish family bathroom offers a four-piece suite including a clawfoot bath, walk-in shower, washbasin, and WC, with part-tiled walls, tiled flooring, and windows to both front and rear elevations.

The second floor offers a spacious double bedroom with original cast-iron fireplace and front aspect window, along with a versatile study
ursery, currently used as a dressing room, also with front aspect window.

Externally, to the front there is a brick boundary wall with gate posts, block-paved driveway providing off-road parking, and planting with established shrubs. A continuation of the block paving leads to the side of the property, opening into the rear garden. This superb garden features a wide stone patio spanning the width of the house, with steps down to a generous lawn surrounded by mature, well-stocked borders and established hedging, offering excellent privacy. To the side of the kitchen extension, a raised decked terrace provides an additional outdoor entertaining space, perfect for summer months.
