Howieson Court, Nottingham

Picture yourself in the kitchen, mug in hand, gazing across the golf course as the morning unfolds.

In summer, you can wander outside onto the patio, listen to the birds having a tremendous conversation and watch the golfers attempting to persuade their little white balls to travel in the right direction.

Some succeed. Others provide excellent entertainment. The kitchen is where the magic happens.

Breakfasts become conversations, conversations become evenings, and before you know it, someone's put the music on and nobody wants to go home. Then there's the lounge.

Big enough for the whole family, yet cosy enough to curl up with a film, watch the football or enjoy a gloriously lazy Sunday.

Five bedrooms mean there's room for children, visitors, home offices and all the other things life throws your way. The generous top floor offers even more possibilities. A games room perhaps?

A peaceful study? Somewhere to escape when the house is full of excitement? Step outside and you'll discover a private garden with a lovely outlook across the golf course and valley.

There are sunny patios for morning coffees, space for barbecues, sunloungers for doing absolutely nothing and artificial grass that stays green without demanding your weekends.

You could even practise your putting, although launching golf balls onto the course is probably best left to the professionals! And when winter arrives?

The lounge becomes a cosy retreat, with distant fireworks and the occasional snow-covered valley turning the view into something rather special. Here's another clever thing about this house.

You can leave the car exactly where it is. Mapperley's cafés, shops, pubs and restaurants are within walking distance. Fancy a coffee at Snap? Off you go. A drink at The Treetops? Splendid.

A countryside adventure? Gedling Country Park and the Lambley Dumbles are nearby, ready for muddy boots and fresh air.

There are local schools and convenient connections into Nottingham too, making those busy weekday mornings a little easier to manage. The practical bits are well considered too.

Two-zone gas central heating, a boiler replaced around two years ago, Sky Ultra broadband, a Ring doorbell, driveway parking and potential for EV charging.

Ask the owners what they'll miss and they'll tell you about the views, the kitchen and their walks into Mapperley. But it's really the little things. The first coffee of the day.

The laughter around the kitchen table. The children playing outside. The family piled onto the sofa on a winter's evening.

And, of course, the occasional golfer providing a spot of unexpected comedy beyond the garden. Because a good home gives you somewhere to live.
