Chapel Hill, Ropsley, Grantham, Lincolnshire, NG33

A fabulous four bedroom cottage set within the heart of a popular Lincolnshire village with potential to expand, with far reaching views over surrounding countryside.

Description

Once two cottages, Yew Tree Cottage was originally constructed in 1888 and has seen much renovation over the years. Boasting a wonderful position within the heart of the village of Ropsley, with far reaching views from the garden.

Comprising four bedrooms, two reception rooms and a family bathroom, this home offers extension or annexe potential from the attached garage and outbuilding.

The ample entrance hall is inviting, providing plenty of in-built storage, and leads through to the generous farmhouse kitchen. With bespoke wooden units, butler sink and integrated dishwasher and cooker, this country kitchen is the hub of the home with plenty of room for a dining table. The rooms enjoy double aspect windows including a large window seat and access to the garden via the back door.

The large sitting room has exposed stone walls, solid wooden floors and is kept cosy with feature log burner and window seat. Shelving on two of the walls provides an excellent reading or study nook. Double glass doors lead through to the second reception room currently serving as a music room but could easily accommodate a formal dining room, playroom, or office with double doors leading through to the garden and patio. The downstairs W.C. is next door along with the separate utility room which leads back through to the kitchen.

Above, the principle bedroom has double aspect views to the rear of the property and boasts a useful dressing area. Bedroom two, currently set up as an office, has plenty of in-built storage, bedroom three and four, both good sized doubles, complete the first floor and are served by the large family bathroom with separate bath and shower.

Outside the driveway provides ample parking and leads to the garage and outside store. The garden is just over a third of an acre and is laid to lawn with mature trees including apple, eucalyptus and, of course, a Yew Tree. The shepherd's hut provides further accommodation outside, suitable for an office space and enjoys far reaching views to surrounding countryside over the stone wall.

The garage has its own log burner and is attached to an outside store, that subject to planning could both be converted to a separate annexe or further accommodation for the home.
