GROVE HALL GARDENS, GROVE, RETFORD, NOTTINGHAMSHIRE, DN22 0RJ

DESCRIPTION
Grove Hall Gardens represents a rare opportunity to acquire a heavy weight detached residence built in an elegant Georgian style, set within mature grounds and being well worthy of further enhancement to create a stunning family home.

Presenting a most attractive façade, the accommodation commences via a side entrance vestibule which opens to a generously proportioned reception hall from which a half turn staircase ascends to the galleried landing over. At the front there is a garden access drawing room flooded with natural light. A separate dining room is provided which facilitates formal entertaining and functionality of the living space is enhanced by a separate study.

The breakfast kitchen hosts a range of buttermilk country style units and leading directly from this is a walk-in pantry and a utility room with external door to the rear.

At first floor level the four bedrooms radiate around the central galleried landing. In more recent times one of the bathrooms has been modernised as a contemporary style wet room, a further bathroom is provided.

To the outside the house nestles nicely within its mature grounds, approximately centrally positioned with principle garden areas lying to the front and rear. The grounds feature a wealth of specimen trees and shrubs adding to the mature setting and levels of privacy.

The approach is shared with Grove Hall House (owned by one of the selling family) from which a private block paved driveway sweeps off facilitating off road parking and terminating at a brick built garage which is linked to the house via the utility room. The grounds also include a part walled paved courtyard, again capable of further enhancement.

The property is equipped with a partial oil fired central heating system and solar panels aid domestic hot water economies.
