Set within the historic Gedling Manor, this distinctive first floor apartment in the sought-after "Library" building offers a rare opportunity to live within a truly characterful country house setting.
This is not a modern, uniform apartment-and it doesn't try to be. With two exceptionally large rooms, generous proportions and an unconventional layout, the space lends itself to flexible living and will particularly appeal to those who appreciate individuality over standardisation.
Rich in original detail, the property features panelled walls, moulded plaster ceiling friezes and a sense of quiet, understated grandeur throughout. It is a home for someone who values history, craftsmanship and atmosphere.
Accessed via a private gravelled driveway and set within extensive communal gardens, the property offers a peaceful and reflective environment, ideal for those seeking calm within a unique historic setting.
Best suited to tenants who will appreciate and respect the character of the building.

Two large, versatile rooms with unique layout

While every reasonable effort is made to ensure the accuracy of descriptions and content, we should make you aware of the following guidance or limitations.
Once the Landlord has agreed to accept your application (subject to references and contract) we will ask for a holding deposit equating to one week's rent.
Upon successfully passing the referencing stage of the application, the holding deposit paid will count towards the total balance of rent and deposit owed before the tenancy start date. You risk losing your deposit in the event that;
* Decide not to rent the property
* Misled the landlord or the agent
* Fail a right to rent or immigration check
The agent/landlord has to write to you within 7 days explaining why they are keeping the holding deposit.
We expect that all checks, payments and signatures are completed within 15 days from the date that you have paid your holding deposit. As all signatures are completed online, we feel that this timescale is fair and reasonable.
Paying your holding deposit does not secure the property at this stage - it essentially shows that you are serious and that you are going to the next stage of the application, which is the formal reference checks. You have 15 days from when you pay a holding deposit to enter into a tenancy agreement. This is called the deadline for the agreement.
It is essential that you provide all information as quickly as you can and pay all monies as they become due. If you can consider a tenancy with 2 adults and 2 guarantors for example, that will require 4 people to be reference-checked, and 4 people to pay, and then subsequently sign the tenancy agreement one after the other, one person failing to do their bit on time holds the entire process up and puts everyone else's holding deposit at risk.
We would urge you to contact us at your earliest convenience if there is anything concerning you or if you have questions.
DISCLAIMER: Please ensure you seek your own financial advice (such as council tax) when renting
(1) MONEY LAUNDERING REGULATIONS - prospective tenants will be asked to produce identification documentation during the referencing process and we would ask for your cooperation in order that there will be no delay in agreeing a tenancy.
(2) These particulars do not constitute part or all of an offer or contract.
(3) The text, photographs and plans are for guidance only and are not necessarily comprehensive.

(5) You should make your own enquiries regarding the property, particularly in respect of furnishings to be included/excluded and what parking facilities are available.
(6) Before you enter into any tenancy for one of the advertised properties, the condition and contents of the property will normally be set out in a tenancy agreement and inventory. Please make sure you carefully read and agree with the tenancy agreement and any inventory provided before signing these documents
