Honeysuckle Cottage, Brook Street, Wymeswold

Rezide proudly presents Honeysuckle Cottage — a truly exceptional home with a rich history and remarkable transformation. Last sold in 1996, this property has been a cherished family home for nearly three decades. Originally a modest bungalow, it has been thoughtfully and meticulously rebuilt by the current owners into a stunning four-bedroom detached residence set on approximately 0.2 acres. This elegant home now boasts four spacious double bedrooms, versatile ground floor living spaces, and a beautifully appointed kitchen-diner fitted with a bespoke Devol kitchen. Complementing these are a large lounge, a grand entrance hall, a cosy snug, a dedicated ground floor office, and convenient bathroom facilities, including an en suite shower room in the principal suite.

One of the property’s most impressive features is its breathtaking garden. Expertly designed by a prestigious local garden company, the multi-level outdoor space is a suntrap oasis offering a variety of beautifully crafted seating areas, vibrant flower beds, barbecue zones, and raised terraces. The garden’s layout and mature planting create a tranquil and versatile environment perfect for entertaining or relaxing with family and friends. Additionally, the property provides ample parking for up to four vehicles, along with a substantial double garage for further storage and convenience.

As you approach Honeysuckle Cottage, its charm is immediately apparent. A spacious driveway and double garage are set to the left, while a delightful path bordered by a picket fence guides you to the timber-framed porch and welcoming front door. Once inside, the grand entrance hall and dramatic open vaulted ceiling create an immediate sense of light and space. Exposed beams and an elegant staircase add character and warmth, while a dormer window floods the area with natural light. From this central space, the snug and office are easily accessed. The snug offers dual aspect windows, tastefully neutral décor, and a gas fireplace, while the separate office provides a quiet and practical workspace overlooking the driveway.

Continuing through the entrance hall, you’ll discover the downstairs shower room, complete with floor-to-ceiling tiles, LED lighting, and a three-piece suite. There is also a cloak handy cloak cupboard for storing coats and shoes. Moving into the lounge, the sense of comfort and style continues. This generous room features exposed beams, dual aspect windows, a magnificent exposed brick fireplace with log burner, and soft, neutral finishes. The heart of the home, however, is undoubtedly the kitchen-diner. Here, character meets function with exposed brickwork, beams, an Ingle Nook style fireplace housing a Rayburn gas oven, and a bespoke kitchen. Additional features include a ceramic Belfast sink, tiled floors, and LED lighting, with access through to the utility room, which offers matching granite work surfaces, handmade cabinetry, and space for appliances. There is also a porch and the back door leading into the garden.

Upstairs, you will find four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The first, immediately to the left of the staircase, includes exposed beams, dual aspect windows, and a large storage cupboard which could be transformed into a walk-in wardrobe or ensuite. The family bathroom is adjacent, fitted with a three-piece suite and wood-effect flooring. Further down the corridor, two more double bedrooms overlook the front of the property and offer peaceful retreats. Finally, the principal bedroom impresses with exposed beams, dual aspect views, a private ensuite shower room, and neutral décor.

Stepping outside through the French doors in the kitchen diner, the garden reveals itself as a private paradise. Designed with both beauty and practicality in mind, this space benefits from sunlight throughout the day. A large, manicured lawn is bordered by colourful flowerbeds, while a tranquil pond and waterfall feature add to the sense of serenity. Raised sleeper beds, brick walls, and tiered sections create interest and variety. Towards the rear of the garden is a circular decking area, ideal for summer barbecues and evening gatherings, which enjoys the last of the day's sun. Closer to the house, a raised terrace offers the perfect spot for morning coffee and alfresco breakfasts, while further pathways lead down to an additional lawn, bin area, and the driveway. Practical elements are also thoughtfully considered, with parking for four cars and a spacious double garage.

Beyond the gates of Honeysuckle Cottage lies the charming village of Wineswold, a vibrant and highly desirable location that enhances the appeal of this extraordinary home. The village boasts two welcoming pubs, one of which offers gastro dining and live music, along with a Michelin-recognised fine dining restaurant complete with guest bedrooms. Residents also enjoy access to a well-stocked village shop, pharmacy, highly regarded primary school and preschool, and a thriving village hall which hosts weekly coffee mornings and a variety of regular events. The community spirit is further strengthened by a range of local clubs and groups, a cricket club, football team, bowling green, multiple play areas, and several churches. Practical needs are well served too, with bus routes providing access to private schools, and excellent transport links via the M1 and East Midlands Airport.

This truly is a rare opportunity to acquire a one-of-a-kind home that offers both character and comfort in equal measure.
