Church Street, Hemswell, Lincolnshire, DN21

Positioned within the heart of this attractive and traditional village, within the conservation area and close to the historic Maypole, this substantial stone-built residence enjoys a setting as charming as the home itself. Set within approaching half an acre of beautifully maintained gardens.

Step Inside

A welcoming entrance porch leads through a traditional painted timber door into a spacious reception hall, an impressive introduction with staircase rising to the first floor and access to the principal living areas.

To the front, the dining room is a particularly characterful space, enhanced by twin bay windows drawing in natural light and a striking ceiling beam adding warmth and charm. A connecting door links seamlessly through to the kitchen, reinforcing the home's sociable layout.

The first sitting room, accessed from the hall, carries a slightly more formal feel with its full height sash window and feature fireplace with cast insert, creating a natural focal point and an inviting atmosphere during the cooler months. Beyond this, a second sitting room provides a more relaxed setting, with dual aspect windows bringing in light throughout the day and a limestone fireplace adding further character.

The farmhouse-style kitchen is generous in scale and full of character, fitted with painted units and traditional terracotta tiled flooring. At its heart sits an Aga, giving the room a natural focal point and reinforcing its country feel. There is ample space to accommodate a large dining table, making it a sociable area for everyday use.

Supporting the kitchen is a spacious utility room with dedicated laundry area and a traditional walk-in pantry, offering excellent practicality and direct access to the rear.

Completing the ground floor is a charming timber-framed conservatory, creating a natural connection between house and garden, accessed both internally and externally.

To the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms. Two interconnect via a Jack and Jill bathroom, presenting a clear opportunity to establish a superb principal suite with dressing room and generous bathroom space. The remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, featuring a freestanding roll-top bath as part of its three-piece suite.

Step Outside

The property is approached via a gated entrance opening onto a broad gravel driveway, bordered by neatly kept lawn and providing ample parking alongside a turning area.

The gardens are a defining feature of the home, extending to approaching half an acre and enjoying a sunny, predominantly south-facing aspect to the rear. Thoughtfully arranged, they combine open lawn with a variety of smaller specimen trees, well-stocked floral beds and established planting, creating colour and interest through the seasons.

Several seating areas are positioned to take advantage of the outlook and sun at different times of day, offering both quieter corners and more open spaces ideal for entertaining.
To the immediate rear of the house is a more enclosed courtyard area, providing a sheltered and practical outdoor space, with access to further traditional outbuildings that offer additional storage and potential for a variety of uses.

Beyond the formal gardens, the outlook across open farmland adds to the sense of space and reinforces the property’s attractive village setting.
