Property description

\"OUTSTANDING\" LOCAL PRIMARY SCHOOL AS RATED BY OFSTED OCTOBER 2015 There is an effortless style and sophistication throughout this stunning Grade II Listed four bedroom detached home that welcomes with its clear light and charm.

Understood to date back to circa 1800 and incorporating the former Post Office the property has been updated to produce a distinctive home of flexibility and evident quality, which retains its historic character whilst providing a home suited to modern living.

The fine balance between contemporary and period is immediately evident from the traditional Dining Room with its open fire, leading to both a stylish modern Kitchen with freestanding units and gas fired range and on to a superb forward facing Sitting Room in which the crisp décor contrasts with the retention of the two bay windows of the former Post Office. The remainder of the ground floor features an open plan Study area which leads up to the principal twin aspect Lounge with floor to ceiling windows, oak flooring and doors to the private terraced gardens.

The retention of two staircases re-emphasises the flexibility; the first floor includes three period style double Bedrooms which are served by two Bathrooms, one of which luxuriously epitomises the design principals. The final, 17'10 bedroom is situated on the second floor and enjoys excellent views to the River Humber and beyond.

Situated just off the village centre, close to the acclaimed Michelin starred Winteringham Fields restaurant, this delightful home has a rarely encountered relaxed intimacy and inherent charm. It is quite simply - home.

Our vendors advise that at the higher asking price of £325,000 an adjoining plot can also be purchased. The plot previously benefitted from Outline Planning Permission for a detached two-storey dwelling with separate access via Market Hill. This plot could alternatively provide Garaging, off-street parking and extra garden space to 3&5 West End, Winteringham (potential garaging subject to relevant permissions).
