Completed in 2020 by a well regarded local developer the property was designed with a great deal of thought and attention to detail and finished to high specification, offering both modern and traditional elements to mimic a barn conversion. Having brick elevations beneath a pantile roof behind which lies versatile living space with several receptions having vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, oak internal doors and deep skirting and architrave combined with features of modern living including highly rated B efficiency with air source heat pump and underfloor heating to the ground floor, contemporary fixtures and fittings and neutral decoration throughout.
The property is likely to appeal to a wide range of prospective purchasers, offering the ability to be utilised as both a single or two storey home ,having a generous ground floor master suite that could be used as the main bedroom but would make an excellent guest suite or ground floor living for dependent relatives.
In it's current guise the property boasts three double bedrooms, all with ensuite facilities, with the first floor suite also offering a walk in dressing room. In addition there are two main reception rooms, one of which could be utilised as an additional fourth bedroom, but currently provides a fantastic light and airy office with doors leading out into the rear garden as well as attractive vaulted ceiling. The large L shaped living/dining kitchen is undoubtedly going to become the hub of the home, benefitting from windows to three elevations as well as doors leading out into the rear garden, making this a superb living/entertaining space.
In addition there is a useful utility room, walk through boot room and ground floor cloak room.
As well as the accommodation on offer the property occupies a delightful, beautifully maintained, landscaped plot with ample off road parking and garage with useful workshop/store behind. The gardens run to three sides with a southerly facing enclosed courtyard garden to the front, the main garden lying at the rear with large paved terrace that links back into the main reception areas.
Overall viewing is the only way to truly appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
Kneeton - The village of Kneeton can be traced in history back to 1086 where it was recorded in the Domesday Book as "Chenuiton" and at the time of recording the village consisted of 5 tenant farmers, 3 freed men and one priest. Women and children were not recorded and it is estimated that the village consisted 8 or 9 households totaling 30 to 40 people. The village has has little growth in the last 900 years, with the last census recording a population of less than 100, with new houses in Kneeton being very rare and less than 10 being added in the 20th and 21st centuries.
In 2018 Kneeton became a conservation area with 10 of the local properties in the village being Grade II listed which in turn creates a unique and pretty setting.
