A wonderfully modern, bright and spacious four bedroom family home
Description
The Property
Originally constructed in 2007, Ladies Mantle Cottage is a most impressive, four-bedroom detached home of over 2700 sq ft situated in the highly regarded village of Skillington and within easy reach of the pretty market town of Grantham. The home is immaculately presented throughout with high attention to detail and has been subject to a matter of updates over the years including a newly refurbished kitchen and updated bath and shower rooms. The bright, mostly neutral interiors and large windows, make the property feel exceptionally light and bright. The property is generously proportioned throughout with ample living space, ideal for the demands of busy family life and entertaining at home.
Accommodation
The ground floor accommodation is accessed via a wide and welcoming entrance hall with feature staircase leading down into a wonderful garden room with velux windows and views of the garden. Back in the hallway there is access to a study and internal door to the garage. Access to a good-sized dining room with exposed beams and a bright 25ft sitting room with Velux windows, handsome brick fireplace with an inset wood burning stove and double doors out to the rear gardens. From here is the wonderful fully fitted kitchen complete with a breakfast bar, appealing white panelled cabinetry and useful adjacent utility room.
Occupying the first floor is the principal bedroom benefitting from a walk-in wardrobe with fitted storage and stylish en suite bathroom with twin basins, feature bathtub and glass-fronted walk-in shower, two additional double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes with one enjoying access to an en suite shower room, plus a smaller bedroom and contemporary family bathroom.
Outside
The property occupies an elevated plot fronted by a neat grass verge and hedging with off-street parking for several vehicles on a gravel driveway with access to an integral double garage. The attractive south-facing rear garden has been maintained to a very high standard and comprises landscaped lawns flanked with herbaceous flowers and bedding plants with a spacious patio area perfectly designed for al fresco dining. There is also a brick built summer house. The garden is enclosed by tall stone walls and hedging affording an excellent degree of seclusion.
Location
The village of Skillington borders the Vale of Belvoir and Rutland. Within the village there are two churches, a busy village hall and an award-winning pub. Skillington is within easy reach of the A1 giving easy access to both north and south and is ideally positioned for commuting to Grantham, Oakham, Stamford and Melton Mowbray. Mainline rail services are available from Grantham and Peterborough with services to London Kings Cross.
There are several golf courses within approximately 15 miles radius, water sports at Rutland Water near Oakham, leisure centres in the surrounding market towns and various other racquet and sports clubs. Buckminster Gliding Club is within a mile of the property. A choice of public and private schools in the area provides high quality education including grammar schools for boys and girls in Grantham.
