Property description
Idyllically situated within a two acre gated plot, Fine and Country Northern Lincolnshire present to the market, Littleworth Farm, which has been significantly extended from a former, modest cottage into a detached family home of traditional character.
Superbly suited to social entertaining and offering outstanding privacy the home skilfully combines modernity and tradition to create the flexible, informal intimacy one would demand in a Lincolnshire farmhouse.
The owners have been sympathetic to its origins : the kitchen marries reclaimed sealed pine work surfaces with exposed brickwork to form a relaxing communal heart, the lounge with its two fireplaces, beams and slate floors enjoys views over the newly established front garden and the addition of a second sitting room with vaulted ceiling is an excellent family room or potential ground floor bedroom.
The first floor bathroom typifies the home : the double ended roll top bath sits easily alongside a modern multi jet shower enclosure. The remainder of the first floor comprises of four bedrooms - one of which includes en-suite facilities - to provide personal spaces of eminent character.
The edge of village location ensures Littleworth farm is afforded excellent privacy with superb rural views. A long driveway leads to a decked and gravelled courtyard which is screened by a series of single storey loose boxes and forms an excellent outside entertaining space and the side and rear paddock can be accessed via the 45 foot open fronted block and steel frame barn.
Littleworth Farm is a haven of privacy that gives the freedom to live.
