Description
DEER LEAP
Deer Leap is a substantial period country house in need of a well-considered and complete programme of restoration and modernisation set in remarkable mature light mixed woodland grounds extending to 1.70 acres / 0.69 hectares (or thereabouts). The property occupies a stunning position on high ground just outside Oxton village capturing unrivalled views across the bordering Greenbelt countryside of the Oxton Estate, in a southerly direction; arguably one of the most spectacular locations for a private house in the area.
Deer Leap has been a much loved family home for many years and today it offers a wonderful opportunity for restoration and/or possible well considered redevelopment or 'one for one' replacement with a new sustainable dwelling (subject to planning and building regulation considerations) in what would be one of the most idyllic settings in which to embark upon a project of this nature.
Surrounding the house there are carefully managed mature woodland grounds with gently sloping lawns, creating a setting of great beauty. Approached from Southwell Road along a rising and winding tarmacadam drive through a timber gated entrance, Deer Leap nestles in the heart of the plot some distance from the road. In our opinion, a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a home for the long term with enormous potential in a highly convenient location close to Southwel,l amenities with direct access to Nottingham, Mansfield and further afield.
