5 bed property for sale

Potterhanworth Road, Nocton, Lincoln LN4

The Property

An impressive and deceptively spacious character home in the heart of Nocton, combining the charm of a limestone cottage, believed to date back to the 1700s, with the light, space and flexibility of modern family living. Extended over the years, the property now offers more than 2,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation while retaining a wealth of period character.

The front door opens into a cosy sitting room where the character of the original cottage is immediately apparent, with limestone walls, deep-set windows, a feature window seat, pitch-pine beams, exposed brickwork and a log-burning stove.

At the heart of the house is the impressive 25ft kitchen and dining room. The Shaker-style kitchen, finished in dove grey, provides plenty of storage and workspace, while oak beams and a feature fireplace bring character to this generous family space, with ample room for a full-sized dining table.

Beyond the kitchen is a bright and spacious modern family room, where large bi-fold doors open directly onto the York stone terrace, creating a natural connection between the house and garden and a fantastic space for entertaining.

A separate staircase from the family room leads to an additional bedroom with its own WC facilities. This gives this part of the house a degree of independence from the main bedroom accommodation, making it particularly useful for guests, home working, hobbies or multigenerational living and allowing the layout to adapt easily as needs change.

A study, utility room and additional ground-floor WC complete the accommodation, providing the practical spaces often missing from character properties.

Upstairs
The main staircase rises from the original cottage to four bedrooms, including a particularly generous principal bedroom with en-suite facilities. The remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.

Moving Outside...
The private and secure rear garden combines lawn, patio and established planting, enclosed by a mixture of traditional walls, fencing and mature hedging.

The York stone terrace stretching from the family room to the utility room provides an attractive setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while vehicular access into part of the garden offers further flexibility for parking or storage.

To the front is off-street parking together with an electric vehicle charging point.

The result is a unique family home that successfully combines the atmosphere of a centuries-old limestone cottage - with its deep windows, beams, exposed stone and log burner - with the generous proportions and open living spaces of a much more modern property.

The Village
Nocton is a well-connected Lincolnshire village around seven miles south-east of Lincoln, offering a peaceful village setting within easy reach of the city.

The village has its own primary school, village green and Nocton Hub, with plenty of opportunities for countryside walks and access to the Spires and Steeples Arts and Heritage Trail. Nearby Potterhanworth, Dunston and Metheringham provide further amenities, while Metheringham railway station is approximately 3.5 miles away.

No onward chain.
