Description

Tucked away along Walk Lane in the heart of the picturesque village of Irby, Millfield Cottage offers a rare opportunity to acquire a charming period home in a beautiful rural setting. Full of character and original features, the property has been little altered in recent years and now requires a full programme of modernisation, offering buyers the chance to restore and enhance this delightful cottage to their own taste and specification.
The accommodation offers a surprisingly generous layout for a cottage, comprising a cosy living room, separate sitting room, rear lobby, utility room and a ground floor bathroom. To the first floor there are three bedrooms. The property sits within an attractive plot that offers ample scope for landscaping and further improvement, subject to any necessary consents.
Irby is a highly desirable and unspoilt village, offering a peaceful countryside lifestyle whilst remaining convenient for nearby towns and transport links. Surrounded by rolling farmland and open countryside, it provides the perfect setting for those seeking a more tranquil way of life, yet is only a short drive from the amenities of Grimsby, Cleethorpes and the wider Lincolnshire Wolds.
With its combination of character, charm, and enormous potential, Millfield Cottage is ideal for buyers looking for a renovation project in one of the area's most sought-after rural locations.
Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the unique opportunity this property represents.
