    Description

     

    An exceptional and flexible detached Tudor style house standing in mature landscaped gardens with open countryside adjacent and Newark town centre approximately two miles away. The house was built in 1932 and a two storey extension added in 1986, incorporating an atrium and additional family and guest accommodation. The property is in good decorative order throughout. There are secondary double glazed windows to the front elevation and hardwood windows with sealed unit double glazing to all other elevations. The property has a fully serviced security system.

    The property is set well back and approached via an electric gate and a winding gravel drive surrounded by fabulous mature private gardens of over half an acre. There is a small spinney along the road frontage which includes ash, copper beech, silver birch, acacia and maple trees. There is a large turning circle and ample parking space, in addition to a detached double garage with electric up and over doors. The gardens have many specimen trees including apple, plum and pear.


    The property is within walking distance of Farndon village, close to a playing field, post office, school, pubs, restaurant, church and shops. The property is on a regular bus route to Nottingham with easy access to the A46, A1 & M1. Newark also benefits from two railway stations offering a fast link to London (80 mins) via North Gate station on the Edinburgh to London line and to Birmingham, Lincoln and Nottingham via Castle Gate station.

     

    The property is close to a number of airports offering 'low cost' flights - Nottingham East Midlands Airport (30 miles) & the new Robin Hood Airport at Doncaster (37 miles), in addition to the airports at Birmingham and Coventry.
