Long Row, Kingston on Soar

Offered to the market, with no upward chain, is this beautiful and rarely available pretty cottage. Occupying manicured grounds extending to around two-thirds of an acre in the Quintessentially English and peaceful Nottinghamshire village of Kingston On Soar.

The property was constructed in the 1970’s as a rebuild on the scale of a Victorian home, and as such benefits from lovely period proportions and living accommodation laid across three floors. Of particular note are the grounds: true English cottage gardens with working areas, established borders, an orchard, and manicured lawns.

The property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special and ‘one off’ home, and viewing early is strongly recommended to any interested purchaser.

Internally, the property boasts an impressive net floor area of circa 1,529 square feet, including the garage. The accommodation is laid across three floors and is dressed and presented in exceptional condition. With a true ‘cottage’ feel but relatively modern build construct, the main house offers a perfect mix of period feel without constant maintenance.

In brief, expect to find an entrance hall, a beautifully refitted shaker-style kitchen with a range cooker, a pantry, a dining area, a spacious main sitting room with a feature fireplace, and a wonderful garden room with views out across the grounds.

Upstairs to the first floor are two double bedrooms and a pretty family bathroom. There is also a further room in use as a study with stairs rising to the second floor, where you can expect to find a top-floor bedroom with WC and dressing room.

The grounds are rarely available at this price point in the market. Totally private and with open countryside views, the gardens extend to around two-thirds of an acre.

There is parking and a single garage behind the cottage, with potential to open up gardens to make a large gravel sweeping driveway should the eventual purchaser wish.

South-facing gardens wrap around the property to the front, side and rear. There is also a further gated access from Station Road to the front. Expect to find manicured lawns, orchard trees, stocked and mature borders, wildflower meadows and working gardens. There is plentiful interest, and the addition of a useful greenhouse.
