Sublime Setting - Balancing contemporary and classic style, Hazelnut House was designed with much owner input by respected local Mansfield architect Michael Caddy, built with the very best materials and to the highest standard – with no expense spared.

Pull off the A614 and onto the serene setting of May Lodge Drive, before pulling through the electric gated entrance to Hazelnut House, where the crunch of gravel beneath the tyres along the broad driveway signifies your arrival home.

Connected via phone, keypad and fob, the electric gates provide an added sense of security, allowing you to invite guests and deliveries in at the touch of a button.

Ample parking is available with turning space too, whilst lush lawn is planted with mature trees, perfectly in keeping with the acres of woodland extending to the rear.

An electric vehicle charging point can be found to the left of the home.

Converted into a gym, the single garage also accommodates the boiler. Spacious and well-insulated, consider the potential to create an additional room here, perhaps a lounge or even a home office.

Served by superfast broadband, Hazelnut House is ideal for those looking to work from home.

Welcome Home - Make your way indoors, into the bright entrance hall, where light flows in through double height windows and down from the impressive light fixture above the door.

Herringbone design Karndean flooring extends throughout most ground floor rooms, warmed by underfloor heating.

Each room provides zoned heating on a separate thermostat on this ground floor level.

Throughout the home a minimalist decorative palette features, warmed by rustic, characterful touches.

Serenely styled with neutral biscuit toned carpet and white walls, with a feature wall of mallard green, relax and unwind in the living room.

Light pours in through the windows overlooking the mature trees and driveway to the front, whilst warmth exudes from the log-burning stove inset within a handsome redbrick surround.

An enchanting room at Christmas time, hang your stockings on the light-oak lintel above the fire and listen for carollers calling as they visit homes along May Lodge Drive.

Sociable Spaces - Returning to the entrance hallway, stash your coat and shoes in the deep storage cupboard beneath the stairs, before freshening up in the spacious cloakroom opposite, furnished with vanity unit wash basin and WC.

At the end of the entrance hall, make your way through to the open-plan, kitchen-diner living area, where garden views greet you instantly through a wall of bi-folding doors.

Streaming light through, the doors fold back to provide instant access out to the garden, ideal for alfresco summer dining.

So peaceful, this spacious garden feels perfectly private, backing onto the extensive woodland of Rufford Abbey to the rear.

Herringbone, honey-toned Karndean flooring flows through this wide room, naturally zoned to provide both living, dining, and cooking space in one open-plan area.

To the left, relax and unwind in the welcoming snug, where designer Roberto Cavalli wallpaper dresses the feature wall, and where there is a television point and glass hearth mounted log-burning stove.

Sociable and open-plan, the beautifully furnished LochAnna kitchen – with its ten-year guarantee – features a range of soft close cabinets, a close-away Butler’s pantry cupboard, Neff slide and hide double oven and warming drawer alongside integrated fridge and wine fridge, dishwasher and induction hob with downdraught extractor.
