Striking and contemporary, a beautifully appointed three-bedroom cottage in an idyllic semi-rural position, with extensive gardens and Garage/Workshop.
Description
In a highly desirable village position, East End Cottage is the ideal blend of old and new. The original part of the cottage dates back to the turn of the 20th century, with the property undergoing an extensive renovation between 2020 and 2023. The cottage was extended and fully modernised with a back-to-brick refurbishment creating a wonderfully light and airy interior, enhanced with a wealth of glazing which fills the home with natural light. Large format picture windows frame lovely views over the garden and the surrounding countryside. Internally, the contemporary finish feels fresh and current. The entrance hall is marked by a striking floating staircase with glass balustrade, rising through the centre of the house. A soft colour palette and porcelain tiled floors run through much of the ground floor, creating excellent flow between the living spaces: A light-filled sitting room with bifold doors opening to the rear garden, the magnificent kitchen and dining room and onwards to the fabulous indoor/outdoor covered dining area. The kitchen is a particular highlight, with German engineered Turnbulls cabinetry and a range of premium appliances including a larder fridge, self-cleaning neff ovens, a microwave combination oven, warming drawer and induction hob. In addition there is a cloakroom with generous storage and a utility room/boot room for laundry machines.
Upstairs, the three bedrooms are well proportioned, with the principal bedroom particularly spacious as well as enjoying a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden. Both bath/shower rooms are beautifully appointed, with Aqualisa rainfall showers and a freestanding stone bath in the main family bathroom.
East End Cottage is nestled amongst farmland on the eastern edge of Aubourn, set behind a matching red brick stone wall and a high, sliding electric gates (not included). The house is well positioned at the front of the plot, with the gardens enveloping the sides and rear of the house. It feels wonderfully secluded.
The south-facing rear garden has been extensively landscaped and is as well presented as the house itself, featuring a generous lawn, mature planting and shrubs affording colour and texture. A covered seating area adjoins the house, providing a space to enjoy the outdoors in all weathers, and leads to a further terrace with plenty of room for dining and lounging furniture. Outdoor lighting creates an inviting atmosphere after dark.
Separate to the main house is the garage/workshop, located at the back of the plot and accessible via the sweeping flamingo Salix tree-lined gravel driveway. This includes a double garage, gym, office and workshop space, offering excellent versatility. With water and electricity installed, the garage/workshop provides annexe potential (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).
Location
Aubourn is an attractive and highly regarded village, approximately eight miles south-west of Lincoln. Surrounded by open farmland and unspoilt rural landscapes, the village offers a peaceful setting while remaining well connected. Local amenities include the popular Royal Oak public house and St Peter’s Church, while a wider range of everyday facilities, including a village shop, primary school, doctor's surgery and further amenities, can be found in nearby Bassingham, approximately 2.5 miles away.
The cathedral city of Lincoln provides an excellent selection of shops, restaurants, cultural attractions and leisure facilities, together with well-regarded state and independent schools. Excellent road links via the A46 provide convenient access to Newark, the A1 and the wider motorway network, while direct rail services from Newark to London King's Cross take from around 80 minutes.
