Property description
Fine and Country Northern Lincolnshire are proud to offer this distinctive three bedroom detached family home within 1.3 acres (approx) of paddock and landscaped grounds. The elegant accommodation includes a broad reception hall, sitting room, kitchen with appliances and utility. The master suite and bathroom both include period style suites. Superb 46' first floor music room with study. Extensive garaging and parking. The Old Reading Room – modern classic.Inspired by childhood memories, The Old Reading Room was envisaged as a \"country house in a bungalow\". Built in 2007 to an evident high standard throughout and enjoying rural views it now offers distinctive, well proportioned and flexible three with the possibility of four bedroom accommodation within extensive landscaped gardens and an additional paddock totalling 1.3 acres or thereabouts.
Unified by flagged floors to the ground floor and incorporating quality cornicing, traditional brick fireplaces within inset stoves and period style bathrooms, The Old Reading Room retains a sense of timeless, discreet elegance complemented by modern sophistication.The broad hallway with its return stair affords a generous welcome which is maintained by the forward facing sitting room with multi fuel stove and an archway to the excellent limed oak breakfast kitchen with integrated appliances creates a superb space ideal for relaxed socialising. There is a separate, dual aspect drawing room with further fireplace which could easily become additional bedroom accommodation if required. In addition to the spacious family bathroom and two side bedrooms, the master suite with its fitted dressing area and en-suite bathroom is a peaceful private retreat.
The first floor is dedicated to a grand, 46'4 music room and additional study which is currently used as a superb relaxing room ideal for quiet contemplation but could easily be converted to a superb master suite if required.
Sheltering in the lee of the village church and set back beyond deep lawns there is extensive reception parking supplemented by ample garaging. The principal, western gardens with their broad lawns, mature shrubs and orchard including Medlar tree, are best viewed from the side terrace with its fragrant rose covered pergola. The additional paddock is again grassed and provides a useful amenity/recreation area.
The Old Reading Room displays a quiet elegance and dignified welcome. It is, quite simply, a modern classic.
