4 bed detached house for sale

Blind Lane, Coleby, Lincoln LN5

A prominent and attractive four bedroom barn conversion, exuding character and charm from top to bottom with further potential for yet further living space in this popular Cliff Village.

Description

Set within a secluded corner of the sought-after village of Coleby, this distinctive four-bedroom barn conversion combines an abundance of character with generous reception space and versatile outbuildings. Original features sit alongside contemporary elements, with exposed beams, a log-burning stove, a striking spiral staircase and floor-to-ceiling glazing contributing to the property’s individual appeal.

The accommodation begins with an entrance hall with a cloakroom and useful storage. Double oak and glazed doors open into an impressive dining and reception room, where full-height windows draw in natural light and provide views towards the garden. A separate sitting room offers a more intimate setting, centred around a log-burning stove and complemented by exposed beams. The fitted kitchen provides a range of cabinetry, together with a separate walk-in pantry. An adjoining utility room accommodates laundry appliances and houses the boiler.

On the first floor, the gallery-style landing overlooks the principal reception room and the enclosed rear garden. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in dressing room and an en suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom completes the first-floor layout, with a traditional roll-top bath and shower over.

Outside

Outside, the property enjoys both front and rear gardens, with areas of lawn, established greenery and spaces for outdoor seating. The rear garden is enclosed by stone walls, creating a private and sheltered setting.

The adjoining barn, extending to approximately 40 ft offers practical versatility and is currently arranged as a garage and workshop, with two electric garage doors, power and lighting. A gravel driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles, accessed via a private shared drive.
