OWNERS’ COMMENT - "Greenbank was our family home for over seven years. When we renovated our house we wanted the rooms to flow by mixing the modern with the traditional, keep everywhere light and airy by day whilst still keeping the warm and cosy feel in the evenings. Raising our family here has been a delight.
We have had the opportunity, with the flexible open plan layout of our home, to have had the whole family for Christmases, parties with friends, children’s sleepovers and even teenage band practices in the sound-proof music room!
Outside on the decking is ideal for barbeques with great views across the Trent valleys, whilst still being able to watch the children in the gardens below. The gym and games room has been well used by our teenagers but could easily become useful as a different room altogether should you require it.
The village itself has two churches, a local pub, which serves great food and many country walks just on your doorstep. With the village hall only being across the road, it’s an ideal opportunity to quickly become part of the community. It hosts a variety of events and clubs ranging from theatre shows, fitness classes to quiz evenings, incorporating all interests and age groups.
Within a short drive (3 miles) or easily accessible and reliable bus journey you can visit the bustling town of Southwell, with its many shops and of course The Southwell Minster. Our home is close enough to utilise all of the amenities, but far enough away to enjoy the benefit of living in a relaxing, peaceful quaint village".
