5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Wilsthorpe, Stamford, Lincolnshire PE9

A beautifully appointed & impressive village property, combining a spacious barn conversion, a separate annex cottage & extensive parking & garaging, with 1.84 acres of gardens & paddock.

Description
Beautifully presented, this fabulous home, and its annexe, is presented to exacting standards. Converted in circa 2003, the thoroughly modern, double glazed property also has a bio-mass central heating system.

The main house has a wonderful feel and flow, providing fabulously appointed accommodation over two floors, with a versatile layout that is ideal for entertaining. Linked by the four car open fronted carport, a single storey two bedroom annex is ideal for multi-generational living, guests, letting or business use.

The house is entered from the garden through two sets of French doors, to a fabulous limestone flagged, glazed garden room, which fronts the length of the house, with exposed brickwork walls. It provides accesses to three of the reception rooms and the entrance dining hallway, which largely share the same limestone flooring, with the property’s front door to the village.

The drawing room, study and games rooms line the eastern front of the house. The 19’ drawing room has a high, part beamed ceiling, an exposed brickwork feature wall, and a wood burning stove within a wide brick fireplace. It has double doors to the garden room and adjoining study, fitted with a bespoke office suite, that doubles as an ideal children’s play room.

The games room is fabulous for young adults, or the young at heart who like entertaining. With double height vaulted ceiling, the room has a fitted bar and has been used as a billiards room and cinema. It could also be a fabulous gym or play room. Stairs rise from it to a mezzanine level second office landing, with access to the en suite fifth bedroom.

From the dining hallway, the kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a well-appointed suite, with wall and base units beneath quartz worktops, which incorporates two ovens, an induction hob with retracting extractor and a separate double oven Aga, with plenty of space for a table and chairs for informal dining. The adjoining utility shares the same suite, with further appliances and space for an American style fridge freezer. It also accesses a larder store, with an external door to the garden.

From the dining hall, the staircase rises to the main first floor accommodation. The landing accesses a 20’ principal bedroom, with contemporary en suite shower room, and three further double bedrooms, with modern full-suite family bathroom. Bedroom 4 is also fitted with bespoke wardrobes, as a dressing room.

Annex: The self-contained single storey annex offers huge versatility, with two bedrooms, two bath/shower rooms, kitchen and sitting room. It is perfect for relatives, guests and has obvious letting potential. It would also be an ideal business base for those seeking to combine home and work.

Outside: The property extends to circa 1.84 acres in total, with lawned gardens to the west of the house, offering far reaching sunset views, stone flagged terraces and mixed species trees. There are post and rail fenced boundaries to the paddock, to the garden’s north, and to farmland to the west. A public footpath crosses the paddock north east to south west.

The private driveway is owned by this property, but initially also serves three other residences enroute, before leading past the paddock to electric gates to our gardens and extensive tarmac parking, with access to the quadruple garaging, which links the house to the workshop and annex cottage.
