Far Street, Wymeswold, LE12

A truly impressive Grade II Listed detached period property dating back to circa the 1700s, occupying a fantastic position within the heart of the highly regarded village of Wymeswold. Sympathetically restored and carefully maintained, this substantial historic property retains a wealth of original character and architectural features while offering exceptionally versatile accommodation, including a four-bedroom main house and a fully self-contained one-bedroom annexe - providing five bedrooms and four bathrooms in total, alongside additional WC facilities.

Approached via double gates positioned to the side of the property, the property offers generous hardstanding providing excellent off-road parking, together with four useful outbuildings providing valuable additional storage and workspace. To the rear, the established and private gardens include paved seating areas, pathways, lawn and decking, creating a particularly attractive setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Internally, the main house begins with a spacious entrance hall leading to two particularly well-proportioned reception rooms. Both rooms offer excellent family and entertaining space while retaining the character and charm expected of a property of this age, including period features and attractive detailing.

To the rear of the property is the impressive open-plan dining kitchen, providing the real heart of the home. This generous space offers excellent room for both everyday family life and entertaining, with a good level of natural light and direct access towards the rear garden.

Accessed directly from the main entrance hall, the property also benefits from a useful lower-ground-floor cellar, currently utilised as both a home office and wine cellar. This genuinely functional additional space offers excellent versatility, providing a dedicated working environment alongside an attractive and practical area for wine storage.

The ground floor also benefits from a separate WC, adding further practicality to the accommodation.

The main house continues over two further floors and provides four generous double bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite bathrooms, while the upper floor is further served by a family bathroom. The accommodation offers excellent flexibility for family living, guests and home working, while retaining the individuality and character expected of a property of this age.

A major feature of the property is the detached, fully self-contained annexe positioned to the side of the main house. Offering genuine independent accommodation, the annexe comprises a lounge, dining kitchen, utility room, bedroom with en-suite shower room and an additional separate WC.

The annexe provides a fantastic level of flexibility and could be ideal for dependent relatives, older children, guests, independent living or those requiring a separate home-working or business space. Combined with the four bedrooms in the main house, the property effectively offers five bedrooms and four bathrooms across the main residence and annexe, in addition to two separate WC facilities.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The side gated entrance leads to generous hardstanding with ample off-road parking, while the four outbuildings provide excellent additional storage, workshop or hobby space. The established rear gardens are private and enclosed, incorporating lawn, paved seating areas, pathways and decking, with plenty of space for outdoor dining, entertaining and family use.

The combination of a substantial Grade II Listed period property, four-bedroom main residence, fully self-contained one-bedroom annexe, four bathrooms, a highly functional lower-ground-floor home office and wine cellar, and four additional outbuildings makes this an exceptionally versatile home.

Properties offering this level of character, accommodation and flexibility within the heart of Wymeswold are rarely available. An internal inspection is essential to fully appreciate the scale, versatility and range of accommodation on offer.
