2. The Park
We Buy Any Home said: "One of Nottingham’s most beautiful and serene places, it’s hard to believe The Park is only a few minutes’ drive away from the city centre. "Once upon a time, this area was Nottingham Castle’s deer park. It’s now a private housing estate with a palpable sense of history. To this day, the street lights run on gas. The sturdy, Victorian-style houses are large, with expansive gardens and driveways. There are two spotless gardens in the middle of the estate." | Geograph Photo: Geograph
3. Beeston
We Buy Any Home said: "Situated southeast of Nottingham, Beeston is a peaceful haven that families love. The laid-back atmosphere greets you as soon as you enter this leafy suburb. Although it’s only a few miles from the city centre, it has a friendly village feel. But that doesn’t mean nothing is going on here. Beeston has its own high street full of big-name stores and quirky independent businesses. It has all the amenities you need without having to venture into the city. If you need to travel, Nottingham’s award-winning public transport system will keep you from waiting long. Buses run 24/7 throughout Beeston, and there are electronic signs at most bus stops." | Graham Hogg Photo: Graham Hogg
4. Wollaton
We Buy Any Home said: "Wollaton is a place you don’t want to overlook. It’s a beautiful part of Nottingham, best known for its famous Wollaton Park. The suburb and the Park are a match made in heaven. Both are spacious, green and welcoming. As a resident of Wollaton, you can expect a quiet life detached from the hustle and bustle of Nottingham’s exciting city centre. It’s an incredibly safe area, and locals think of it as a paradise. Houses cost an average of £332,100, and there’s a mixture of classic Victorian and modern properties." | Art De Cade Photo: Art De Cade
