We have pleasure in offering to the market this thoughtfully renovated and extended former Crown Estate period farmhouse located at the heart of this pretty hamlet yet still positioned within easy reach of a wealth of amenities in the nearby market town of Bingham and the well serviced village of Cropwell Bishop.
The property offers an excellent level of accommodation approaching 3,500sq.ft., potentially boasting up to six bedrooms with ensuite and generous family bathroom and, to the ground floor, five receptions including an impressive conversion of the original, attached former dairy, which now provides a stunning games room with high, vaulted ceiling with exposed king post truss providing a vast space ideal for entertaining. In addition a well proportioned farmhouse style family kitchen benefits from a dual aspect with access out into the south facing rear garden as well as leading into a spacious boot room/utility and the property boasts two ground floor cloak rooms.
The property has been tastefully modernised throughout with a comprehensive back to brick program of renovation and is beautifully presented with an element of both contemporary and traditional fittings which combine to create a stunning family orientated home within this pleasant semi rural setting. The property has been fully replumbed and rewired with a full new heating system and oil fired Worcester Bosch boiler, and new joinery.
As well as the accommodation on offer the property occupies a pleasant plot with gated access onto a generous driveway and, in turn, an oak framed double garage and access into the rear garden which benefits from a southerly aspect enclosed to all sides with large central lawn and well stocked borders.
Overall viewing is the only way to truly appreciate the level of accommodation on offer.
