Offered for sale by Fine and Country Northern Lincolnshire, this outstanding three bedroom cottage style property with double garage is discreetly situated in the premier residential village of Appleby. Arranged around a 22’8 centrally situated dining room the property includes a farmhouse style kitchen, utility and study.

In addition to the reception parking there is an attached double garage and the property is completed by a western facing lawned garden. The Model Yard – unwrap the secret. The Model Yard hides its charms well. Its modest approach, screened by stone walling, disguises a distinctive three bedroom home in which bold, high vaulted ceilings and multiple windows create well lit, surprising spaces of individual charm and character. Understood to have been converted from former barns, this delightful cottage style home has become an individual property of relaxed welcome within one of the regions premier village locations.
The traditional entrance gives no hint as to what lies beyond: connected by archways and a glass fronted corridor overlooking a private courtyard, the home is divided into distinct areas suited to informal socialising and comfortable living. The outstanding 22’8 centrally situated dining room is the undoubted heart which links the farmhouse style kitchen, office and utility to the two separate sitting rooms which cater for both everyday living and quiet contemplation. The inner hallway with floor to ceiling windows to one side leads from the dining room to provide access to three generous double bedrooms together with a well appointed family bathroom and separate sauna with shower.
Once again the grounds are divided into areas of individual character: the gravelled front reception and attached double garage allow for ample guest parking, the inner courtyard provides for al fresco entertaining and the lawned rear gardens with mature shrub borders are a traditional haven.
The Model Yard – unlock the secret.
