Property description
Fine and Country Northern Lincolnshire are delighted to offer this rarely available five bedroom detached family home with two storey barn on the edge of the sought after village of Scotton. The accommodation briefly includes a dual aspect lounge with cast stove, dining room leading to music room and a second sitting room overlooking the walled gardens. The oak effect breakfast kitchen includes appliances and second staircase. An indulgent family bathroom with shower and bath completes the accommodation. Extensive reception parking leads to a double garage and the barn is divided into five rooms. Superb family home with rural views.
Redolent of English country charm this five bedroom detached family home enjoys an edge of village location with superb views across rural Lincolnshire.
Understood to originally date back to the late 1700's and substantially extended in Victorian times, there is a traditional balance which affords flexible and well proportioned accommodation throughout. The additional detached two storey brick barn is ideal for conversion to further accommodation or workspace (subject to necessary permissions) and is currently used as a games room and storage.
A warm welcome is assured via the central hallway which opens to the dual aspect lounge with its cast iron stove providing a relaxed intimacy. There is a matching forward facing dining room ideal for formal family celebrations spilling over into the connecting music room, and the separate sitting room with its French doors opening to the walled rear gardens is superbly suited as either a breakfast room or a quiet retreat. The well appointed breakfast kitchen with an extensive range of oak effect units with integrated appliance forms the undoubted heart of the home.
A split landing serves the four double and one single first floor bedrooms together with a superbly appointed family bathroom with contemporary walk in shower enclosure and separate bath. A second, spiral staircase leading from the kitchen provides potential to reconfigure the first floor to create a separate annex if required.The property has the benefit of gas central heating throughout and has recently installed Rehau uPVC double glazed windows.
Set back beyond banked lawns with a curving drive leading to the detached double garage, 9 Eastgate enjoys stunning views across open farmland and the walled rear gardens are traditionally styled with seating areas designed to capture the sun throughout the day.The inclusion of a forty foot long two storey detached brick barn – currently divided into three ground floor and two first floor rooms – could become superb workspace or additional, separate accommodation if required.
9 Eastgate is a home of relaxed, balanced charm which offers a warm welcome: a flexible family home in a sought after residential location.
