A substantial and highly versatile five-bedroom period home, occupying a prominent position within the sought-after village of Ketton, with an impressive two-storey double garage, generous parking and a private rear garden.
This distinctive character property offers an excellent combination of traditional features and versatile family accommodation, arranged over three floors and extending to approximately 2,100 sq ft within the main house. The property is complemented by an exceptional detached double garage, measuring approximately 26'7" x 22'8", with a further first-floor space above offering considerable potential, subject to the necessary consents.
The house retains a wealth of period charm, including attractive stone elevations, exposed stonework, timber flooring, feature fireplaces, deep-set windows and a beautiful stained-glass entrance door. The accommodation is particularly adaptable, making it equally suited to family life, those requiring additional reception or working-from-home space, or buyers looking for a property with scope to further personalise.
The ground floor opens into a welcoming reception room, with exposed timber flooring and a feature bay window providing an abundance of natural light. A further family room offers useful additional living space, while the separate lounge provides a more intimate sitting room and features a fireplace with an attractive period surround and built-in cupboards to either side.
At the heart of the property is the impressive kitchen/dining room, a wonderfully sociable space with ample room for a large dining table and everyday family living. The kitchen is fitted with a range of traditional-style units, Belfast sink and a combination of modern and traditional cooking appliances, complemented by attractive stone flooring. There is excellent natural light from the numerous windows, together with French doors providing direct access to the garden.
A utility room and separate WC complete the ground floor accommodation.
To the first floor are three bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a useful adjoining dressing room and en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, with the impressive proportions continuing throughout. There is also a well-appointed family bathroom and a substantial home office/reading room, which provides a particularly versatile space for working from home, hobbies or quiet relaxation.
A staircase rises from this area to the second floor, where there are two further bedrooms, creating an unusually generous five-bedroom arrangement and making the property particularly flexible for a growing family, guests or those requiring dedicated home-working space.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The rear garden is enclosed and predominantly laid to lawn, with established planting, mature borders and a paved seating area providing a pleasant setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. There is also a gravelled seating area and useful side access.
One of the property's most notable features is the substantial detached double garage, positioned to the side of the house and providing excellent secure storage and parking. The garage measures approximately 26'7" x 22'8" and has two roller doors, while the first floor provides an equally generous footprint, currently with restricted head height. This creates an exciting opportunity for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary planning and building regulation consents.
The combination of substantial accommodation, period character, excellent village positioning, generous parking and an unusually large garage/outbuilding makes this a particularly interesting property, with plenty of scope for the next owners to make it their own.
