Dating back to approximately 1824, this charming detached cottage offers a wealth of character, generous living accommodation and an impressive plot of around a third of an acre in the village of Gosberton Risegate. With three reception rooms, three bedrooms, a private courtyard garden, a substantial detached barn and a separate summer house, this is a distinctive home offering space, versatility and plenty of potential.
The lounge and sitting room form the heart of the home, each offering its own character and a welcoming atmosphere. Exposed brickwork, beams and fireplaces create a traditional feel, with an open fire in the lounge and a wood burner in the sitting room adding to the cosy appeal. The two reception rooms provide flexibility for both relaxing and entertaining, while the sitting room leads through to the kitchen diner at the rear.
The kitchen diner provides practical everyday space, with access out to the private courtyard garden. A particularly attractive feature of the property, the courtyard enjoys sunshine for much of the day and offers a sheltered setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. A ground floor shower room completes the downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom featuring a roll-top style bath. The property retains plenty of its original character, while the layout offers a practical balance of reception space and bedroom accommodation.
Outside, the grounds are a real highlight. Extending to approximately a third of an acre, the plot includes a generous, established garden with mature trees and a separate summer house, currently used as a games room. With power and lighting, the summer house offers a versatile space to enjoy throughout the year, while the main garden provides plenty of room to relax, entertain and make the most of the outdoors.
The private courtyard connects the house to the property's extensive range of outbuildings. A separate storage and gym room provides additional flexibility, alongside a useful utility area with plumbing for a washing machine and dryer.
The substantial detached barn, measuring approximately 46 sq m, is currently used as a workshop and for storage. With power, water, lighting and vehicle access, it offers excellent practical space for hobbies, equipment or workshop use. The barn and surrounding grounds may also offer scope for alternative uses or further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Further benefits include a potting shed with power and lighting, while the large driveway provides off-road parking for up to six vehicles. The combination of the characterful cottage, generous garden and versatile outbuildings makes this a particularly distinctive property, with space to accommodate a variety of interests and lifestyles.
