Property description
Corner Cottage has developed from its modest 1840 origins as a small stone built farmworkers cottage into a five bedroom home of style and distinction suited to modern family life. Situated on generous lawned grounds and enjoying superb views across open fields towards the Lincolnshire Wolds it has become an escape from the rigours of busy life, yet remains accessible to major amenities.The reconfiguration has been enhanced by the retention of exposed stone, beam work and details including original meat hooks and the balance of the original cottage is evident in the forward facing Lounge and Sitting Room which provide intimate and cosy retreats. The addition of a 19'0 Dining Kitchen has provided both an informal social heart to the home and a link to the gardens and a ground floor Shower Room and Utility cater for everyday practicalities.
To the first floor the five generous Bedrooms are served by a Family Bathroom with traditional suite.
The principal grounds lie to the side and rear and are primarily lawned to provide a safe environment with superb views. The side driveway and Double Garage, with potential office over, more than caters for those inevitable guests.
There is an easy charm to Corner Cottage - country living in the modern world.
