Detached house
The Old School House is located along Nottingham Road in Somercotes.
The property comprises a detached two storey, three bedroomed building constructed in circa 1875 and situated on a 0.17 acre (or thereabout) plot of land. The property is of traditional red brick construction surmounted by a double pitched slate covered roof. The majority of the windows and door openings have decorative brickwork with gothic arched openings and other period features providing kerb appeal.
Internally the accommodation is set over two floors and provides lounge, dining room, kitchen and store on the ground floor with three bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor. Gas central heating with a modern combi boiler was present when we inspected the premises (not tested).
The property is set back from the road with a driveway for three cars along with a large rear garden. There are two small outbuildings to the rear of the property of brick construction along with a more recent under cover patio area.
We feel the property would benefit from a sympathetic renovation providing a unique detached dwelling with considerable character. The property has excellent potential for commercial purposes given its very high profile main road position
The property is situated on Nottingham Road (B600), which is the main high street running through Somercotes. In the immediate vicinity is the St Thomas Church along with the Somercotes Infant Nursery School. The wider area comprises mainly upmarket privately owned dwellings.
