Description
General Description
An impressive and exciting opportunity to acquire Hillside Farm and create a truly unique and individual home. The site has detailed planning permission granted for the demolition and rebuild of an impressive, brand-new home with unrivalled views across South Nottinghamshire and Rushcliffe.
The property extends to approximately 12 acres in total, with flat grazing paddocks, orchards, and gardens, and boasts a private, gated setting. Secluded but just 1 mile from the village of Gotham with stunning views across the village and countryside beyond.
We believe that there is serious potential for the eventual purchasers to use the site in several ways, such as equine, glamping and camping (STP) or smallholding use. There are currently three substantial agricultural barns and outbuildings that have further development potential.
The Planning
Planning permission has been granted by Rushcliffe Borough Council under the reference number: 25/01233/FUL.
The Location
The nearby village of Gotham is home to several amenities, including a well-regarded public house, village shop, and primary school. There is a well-served bus route to Nottingham, as well as wonderful countryside walks. The neighbouring village of East Leake has a fantastic array of amenities, including Rushcliffe Golf Club.
With easy access to Nottingham and Derby, and the M1/A50 road network just 4 miles away, commuting across the wider Midlands is superb. There are several highly regarded independent schools within a sensible commute, including Nottingham High School, Trent College, Loughborough Endowed Schools, Ratcliffe College, and Repton School.
Distances
Nottingham 11 miles, Derby 16 miles, Leicester 23 miles, Loughborough 9 miles, East Midlands Parkway Station 4 miles (trains to London from 1h 22m), and East Midlands Airport 7 miles (distances and timings are approximate).
