A wonderfully spacious high specification barn conversion situated in a rural location six and a half miles from Lincoln.
Description
The Dovecote is a grand, detached barn converted in 2004, attractively constructed in two wings from the original honey-coloured stone and newer red brick, all under a tiled roof, creating a truly exceptional and modern family home of generous proportions. The interior design has been done to a fantastic standard with a high specification finish throughout, and is respectful of the original character features of the property, such as exposed stone brick walls and wooden beams. Premium modern features include underfloor heating and a SONOS sound system. The house is set within expansive enclosed grounds with a beautifully maintained wraparound garden and triple garage with self-contained annexe.
The superbly spacious accommodation ranges over two floors, with entry via the inviting entrance hall leading to the magnificent countryside chic 39’ kitchen/dining room with wood burning stove, granite worktops, double bowl Belfast sink and AGA range oven, with access to the garden and al fresco dining areas via the triple aspect garden room with stunning timber window frames and pillars. For less formal entertainment and relaxation, there is a sizeable but cosy living room featuring a wood burning stove with brick surround and two sets of French doors for direct access to outside. Two double bedrooms are on the ground floor, one of which has an en suite shower room. There is also a handy utility room and WC. Upstairs, the principal suite is peacefully positioned in the northern wing of the house with en suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe, whilst the further two double bedrooms are in the west wing and share a Jack and Jill shower room. There is also separate family bathroom with a fabulous freestanding Jacuzzi bath.
The house is set within grounds including beautifully landscaped gardens and a sizeable, gated gravel driveway with a centrally place mature willow as its turning point. There is ample parking which includes an impressive triple garage with a self-contained, one bedroom annexe above. It is a well-presented space with its own exterior door, staircase, living room, kitchen and shower room.
There is a raised deck terrace and large stone paved terrace for entertaining outside which is accessed from both the living room and garden room. The considerable lawn is predominantly southwest facing and surrounded by attractive well-established native hedges.
Location
The Dovecote is set on the outskirts of Waddington which is host to a number of amenities including pubs, coffee shop, a supermarket and local cricket club.
The historic city of Lincoln is approx.6.4 miles from the property to the northeast and offers a range of amenities including shops, restaurants, schools, a university and the quaintly historic Cathedral Quarter and beautiful Bailgate areas. The well-respected Minster and St Mary's private schools are situated in Uphill Lincoln. Lincoln train station has a direct train to London (Kings Cross from 120 minutes).
