Property description
Cobweb Cottage is a stunning four bedroom detached period family home with two room barn offered by Fine and Country Northern Lincolnshire.

Fusing quintessential English Charm with modern style, Cobweb Cottage is an outstanding four bedroom detached cottage of relaxed elegance and versatility.
Situated within the conservation area of the popular village of Barrow upon Humber and understood to date back over 300 years this improved family home is superbly appointed throughout and the additional two room barn enhances its credentials as an entertaining home par excellence.The retention of exposed beam work, window seats and shuttered windows are balanced by modern wood burning stoves, a bespoke kitchen and stylish shower room to create a feeling of easy sophistication suffused with gentle light.
The cottage intimacy is evident in the triple aspect L shaped sitting room with its cosy fireplace and views over the enclosed landscaped grounds. There is an elegant grandeur to the 28' principal drawing room where the two window seats flank a central fireplace. It is however, the distinctive family kitchen which provides the heart of the home: the hexagonal preparation area with integrated appliances flows into a dining area which in turn opens to the rear terrace to create an ideal space for informal entertaining.
The generous spirit continues to the first floor where four spacious bedrooms, one with excellent oriel bay window, are served by both a separate shower room and a family bathroom with claw foot bath.
The enclosed private rear gardens have been superbly landscaped with a series of terraced lawns and mature planting including a magnificent Copper Beech tree and are best viewed from the detached two room barn which is ideal either for summer entertaining or conversion to separate accommodation/workspace if required. A well appointed garage with secure reception parking completes the property.
There is an easy grace to Cobweb Cottage: it is a home in which to enjoy life.Cobweb Cottage – character personified.
