Property description
Grade II listed detached cottage - sitting room - kitchen diner - utility - shower room - downstairs bedroom - two bedrooms upstairs - ensuite to master - study/store - ground extends to approx 5.20 acres (sts) - includes certified campsite for 5 caravans - paddock - wildlife pond and fishing lake - outbuildings.
A truly delightful Grade II listed late 17th century detached cottage in a lovely location set within grounds of approximately 5.20 acres (sts). The Priory benefits from a certified campsite for 5 caravans/motorhomes, fishing lake and two good size areas suitable for paddocks. Furthermore there is an extremely useful detached outbuilding.
The Priory has undergone extensive and careful restoration by the current owners who have successfully managed to blend many period features including attractive wooden windows, cottage latched doors and reclaimed exposed ceiling beams with modern living.
The property is believed to be the oldest in the village dating back to the late 17th century. The site of The Priory is of significant historical importance and has strong connections to the lost Monson Manor House which was believed to be located on the same site. Our vendors bought the property in 1999 and have spent many years lovingly restoring it. Built in brick under rosemary tiles and retaining many period features including reclaimed ceiling beams, cottage latch doors and wooden Yorkshire sliding windows, The Priory is aesthetically truly satisfying and offers a rare opportunity to acquire such a delightful cottage.
The village of Minting has a church, village hall and the popular Sebastopol Inn. The county capital of Lincoln and the well serviced market town of Horncastle lie approximately 19 and 7½ miles away respectively.
It is extremely rare to find such an attractive cottage set in large grounds, which with the campsite offer potential purchasers a source of income.
