Twelvetrees, The Crescent, New Bolingbroke PE22 7JY

Occupying a position within The Crescent at New Bolingbroke, Twelvetrees is a remarkable six-bedroom Georgian townhouse forming part of one of Lincolnshire’s most distinctive and historically important terraces. Dating back to 1823, this elegant sweeping terrace of red brick homes and former shops has evolved into one of the village’s most admired architectural landmarks. The property derives its name from the Twelvetrees family, the grocer and his family who once lived and traded from the property, adding another fascinating chapter to its rich local heritage.

Behind its handsome Grade Two Listed Georgian façade lies an exceptionally spacious and beautifully appointed family home, where generations of careful ownership have preserved and enhanced its period elegance to a superb finish. The quality of the accommodation is immediately apparent, with generous proportions, high ceilings, beautifully detailed woodwork, ornate skirting boards and architraves.

Arranged over three floors, the property provides an impressive level of accommodation, including six versatile reception rooms to the ground floor, a separate study to the first floor, and six well-proportioned double bedrooms. The second floor is dedicated to a spacious master suite, incorporating a generous bedroom, dressing room and en-suite facilities. The current owners have continued the sympathetic improvement of the home, with tasteful décor, recently adding a central island unit to the kitchen and a brand new fully tiled ground floor shower room, while still maintaining the integrity and character of this exceptional property.

Externally, the property also benefits from two garages, and a substantial rear garden, providing a unusual degree of outside space when compared to similar styles of property. Beyond the garden lies uninterrupted countryside views, creating a peaceful and picturesque setting that complements the grandeur and heritage of the house.
A truly unique residence, Twelvetrees offers the opportunity to acquire a significant piece of New Bolingbroke’s history — a home of remarkable scale, character and quality.
