Maypole Street, Hemswell, DN21

Set within a conservation area and full of charm, this beautifully presented freehold semi-detached cottage offers a wonderful blend of character features, practical living space, and exciting potential outdoors — complemented by a block paved driveway, a well-tended front garden, and a lovely lawned rear garden.

As you arrive, you’re greeted by a well-maintained front garden and a block paved driveway, providing convenient off-road parking. The property is traditionally stone built beneath a slate tiled roof and enjoys the added appeal of its conservation area setting.

Inside, the home has been thoughtfully improved in recent years, with key upgrades including a complete oil-fired central heating system installed circa 2022 (to include a new boiler, oil tank, pipework and radiators), along with a multi-fuel burner fitted in 2024 with a new chimney liner — combining comfort, efficiency and character. The property also benefits from newly installed uPVC windows to the front and side elevations, enhancing practicality while remaining in keeping with the cottage feel.

Step through the front door into the entrance hall, where the main bathroom is positioned directly ahead. The bathroom was renovated on 10/01/2021, offering a smart, modern finish that still suits the home’s character.

To the right, you enter the main living spaces. First is the dining room — a welcoming room featuring exposed ceiling beams and a striking exposed stone wall, creating an immediate sense of warmth and authenticity. From here, the home flows through to the living room, again showcasing exposed beams and centred around the cosy multi-fuel/log burner set within a brick surround — a perfect focal point for relaxed evenings in.

To the rear of the property is the kitchen, fitted with units and an integral cooker with electric hob. There is space for a dishwasher and washing machine either side of the sink, and a rear door provides direct access out to the garden — ideal for day-to-day practicality.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms comprising two doubles and a single bedroom currently used as a home office, along with a useful WC.

Outside, the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, providing a great space for children, pets, or summer entertaining. A particularly exciting feature is the stone-built outhouse, offering excellent storage now and genuine conversion potential for those looking to create a workshop, studio, garden room or additional accommodation (subject to the necessary permissions).

Additional practical information includes: Council Tax Band C, FTTP (fibre to the premises) broadband, and a boiler that is approximately 4 years old, under warranty (around 2 years remaining). Roof works have also been completed, including replacement tiles and a new chimney stack, finished on 2024.

A charming cottage in a sought-after setting — early viewing is highly recommended.
