We have great pleasure in offering to the market this deceptive and well appointed terraced home which offers around 760 sq.ft. of internal accommodation, beautifully presented throughout having been thoughtfully renovated to a good specification, retaining much of its original character but combining this with the benefits of modern living.
The property boasts three bedrooms, all with beamed ceilings and a contemporary bathroom all leading off a stunning central, galleried, split level landing which provides a feeling of space. To the ground floor an initial storm porch leads into the main reception which would be large enough to accommodate both a living and dining area, benefitting from two windows to the front elevation, the focal point to the room being an attractive fireplace with inset solid fuel stove, timber mantel and central beam over. The kitchen is again well thought out being beautifully appointed with a generous range of wall, base and drawer units finished in heritage style colours and having a good level of preparation surfaces and integrated Zanussi appliances including a double oven, gas hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washer dryer. The kitchen has French doors leading out into an enclosed courtyard style garden providing a low maintenance outdoor living space.
The gardens have been landscaped for low maintenance living and would be perfect for those looking for a manageable space with little work and, for those needing a larger space to roam, the Vale of Belvoir countryside is literally yards from the front door with superb walks across an abundance of footpaths as well as the attractive Grantham canal.
In addition the property benefits from off street parking and is located within walking distance of the heart of the village with the pub, church and school a short walk away.
The property is offered to the market with no upward chain and benefits from UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and relatively neutral decoration throughout providing a cottage style home presented in a move in condition. Viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
