A wonderful Georgian home set just off the village green within the pretty village of Folkingham. The property is Grade II listed and mainly of coarse limestone construction under a clay pan tiled roof.The beautifully proportioned accommodation is arranged over three floors and to the rear of the property is a range of outbuildings, a lovely walled garden, extensive parking space and a garage.The property retains some fabulous period features and has wonderful ceiling height throughout the entire property.
Ground Floor
There are three beautiful reception rooms to the ground floor, the first of which is a large drawing room with twin sliding sash windows overlooking the village green and a central chimney breast housing a recently fitted wood burning stove.
On the opposite side of the hallway is a formal dining room, again overlooking the front aspect. An open fireplace has an Adams style fire surround which is flanked by arch top open shelving with cupboard beneath.
The snug is located to the rear of the property and has an inset gas fire and French doors leading out to the rear garden.
The large kitchen offers an extensive range of wall and floor cabinets with lots of room for a large farmhouse table or central island. Directly off the kitchen is a rear lobby which provides access to a boot/utility room, a cloakroom and a fabulous scullery still housing the original stone sink and water pump.
Stairs rise to a split level landing space where four of the six bedrooms can be found.
The principle bedroom is located to the front of the property and has a range of in-built wardrobes and a lovely en suite bathroom with free standing roll top bath, large walk in shower, wc and wash hand basin.
There are three further double bedrooms, one of which is used as an office.
The family bathroom has a corner bath, wc and wash hand basin with storage beneath.
The staircase rises again to a second floor where two further bedrooms can be found, one of which has an en suite shower room and a large storage cupboard housing a hot water tank. This room could become a walk in wardrobe if required.
Outside
To the rear of the property is a range of red brick outbuildings that are currently used as storage, however, could serve a variety of uses (subject to planning permission). The pretty walled garden has a stone terrace, ideal for outdoor entertaining, and a variety of mature shrubs and plants.
Local Amenities
The popular conservation village of Folkingham has fantastic amenities including a post office, deli style village store, public house, church and tea room. The area is served well with schooling in the surrounding villages including Osbournby, Ingoldsby and Billingborough with secondary education including highly regarded grammar schools in Bourne and Sleaford.
