A really lovely more modern detached house individually designed and finished in a traditional style to suit this great location within the highly regarded village of Lockington. The delightful plot extends to just over a third of an acre. With nearly 1900 sq ft of internal space and attractive room proportions the property feels comfortably large without being overly so. With such good internal space, a lovely country garden, a double garage, and all in such a superb location, it has all you are likely to want in a modern country house.
The property sits behind a well established hedge, set back a little behind an open grassed area from Thorpe, one of the traditional main streets in Lockington. The tranquil garden has pasture land belonging the Dalton estate to the rear and one side. The exterior of the property takes design cues from traditional Victorian country properties and sits well in its lovely location. The interior of the property has also been finished in a traditional style, where appropriate, with a delightful staircase and landing, charming fireplace, traditionally tiled floors, period style sanitaryware, modern sash windows and stripped wooden doors with period style door furniture.
The internal accommodation briefly comprises: an Entrance Hall, WC Cloaks, spacious Living Room with windows to 2 aspects, Dining Room, Study, Breakfast Kitchen with an AGA, and a Utility/Boot Room. To the first floor there is an attractive and spacious galleried Landing, master Bedroom with extensive fitted wardrobes and an En Suite Shower Room, 3 other Double Bedrooms and a house Bathroom with a separate shower unit. To the front of the property is a mature garden with hedging to perimeters. A driveway leads to a good sized turning circle and car hardstanding area at the rear of the house which also gives access to the detached brick built double garage. There is an attractive area of planting and patio at the rear of the house and then further good sized gardens with a range of mature trees and shrubs in a woodland style. Combined with the adjoining pasture it is very peaceful and bucolic.
There is no forward chain. An early internal inspection is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that it offers and its delightful setting. Short of that, our 360 degree tour will provide and excellent insight.
