Victorian country house dating from 1892, comprehensively reworked for contemporary family, leisure and multi-generational use; the design and works team remains to verify
Aveno permanent dossier · published 13 Sep 2026
Shire Farm
Flawforth Lane, Ruddington, Nottinghamshire
Independent reading
An approximately 10,000 sq ft Ruddington country house with a full-width contemporary living sequence, lower-ground cinema-and-games suite, two-bedroom annexe and triple garaging in about one acre.
Shire Farm clears Aveno's outstanding-modernisation gate because the 1892 house has been substantially reworked around glazed open-plan living, a vaulted mezzanine, a dedicated leisure floor, self-contained annexe and high-spec entertaining spaces. The £295/sq ft headline is unusually low for the marketed scale, but the approximate 10,000 sq ft figure appears blended across the main house, lower-ground leisure rooms, annexe and integral garage. It cannot be a valuation anchor until a signed component schedule and the full approval, title and assessment pack prove what is habitable, lawful and separately assessed.

Shire Farm, Flawforth Lane, Ruddington, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire
Fine & Country's live original instruction names Shire Farm on Flawforth Lane, Ruddington and supplies the £2.95m guide, six bedrooms, five bathrooms, approximately 10,000 sq ft and one-acre setting. Current Rightmove distribution repeats the detached freehold identity, accommodation and Band G. Fine & Country's exact-property film names and tours the same Ruddington house. Zoopla's exact-address record independently aligns the name, postcode, detached form, six bedrooms, five bathrooms, six receptions and freehold tenure, while planning reference 25/00748/FUL connects Shire Farm to the proposed detached garage and games room.
Is the asking premium supported?
The references are not a surveyor-selected valuation set. Recency, condition, land, architecture and improvements are not fully adjusted. Aveno shows the gap instead of hiding it behind false precision.
The cost after the keys.
Marketing claim → buyer consequence.
Tap the evidence cards as if the seller supplied them. Aveno recalculates the decision—not the beauty.

All property film and photography remain publisher-controlled. Only the live film player and original Aveno evidence graphics are permitted; social stills require separate written permission. Fine & Country's live original instruction identifies Shire Farm on Flawforth Lane, Ruddington, and its working publisher-controlled YouTube film expressly tours the same £2.95m property. The one-acre setting, approximately 10,000 sq ft programme, six bedrooms, lower-ground leisure suite, annexe and garaging align across the instruction and film. Aveno uses only YouTube's privacy-enhanced publisher-controlled player and copies, downloads, screenshots, rehosts and hotlinks none of the film or estate-agent photography. The dossier retains an Aveno evidence panel and direct publisher/source links if the remote player is unavailable; no broken-image panel is rendered. Third-party material remains the property of its publisher. The publisher does not endorse Aveno’s independent assessment.
Aveno records corrections and preserves the observation date. Owners, agents, architects and rights-holders are invited to provide documentary evidence.
