Crowtree Lane, Louth LN11


Description
An immaculate and superbly appointed prestigious detached residence occupying a prime elevated position opposite Westgate Fields scenic park, along a quiet no-through lane to the west of the town centre and backing onto the Louth golf course. Re-styled to an exceptional standard by local specialist, Richard Sutton, with a versatile spacious room layout, the accommodation extends to approximately 3,625 sq. Ft. And there is a substantial detached garage block with conversion potential.

Directions From St. James' Church in the centre of Louth, proceed north along Upgate and after a short distance take the narrow right turning just after the zebra crossing into Gospelgate. Proceed west to the end of Gospelgate, turn left and then immediately right onto Crowtree Lane. Follow the lane for some distance and carry on when you reach Westgate Fields park on the right until number 69 is found on the left side, standing in an elevated position above the lane.

The Property The exterior of this stunning property belies its age and you could be forgiven for thinking it a brand new home. The building actually dates from around 1965 but was acquired, extended and modernised around 2002/3 by a respected local builder for his own occupation prior to the present ownership when the property has again been transformed to the highest contemporary standards in the last 18 months. The majority of the re-fitting and styling has been carried out by highly regarded local specialist, Richard Sutton, incorporating a beautiful fully fitted breakfast kitchen, complementary utility room, refitted shower rooms and cloakroom/WC.

The principal walls of the house are finished externally in light coloured stonework which contrasts in colour with the pitched clay pan tiled roof structures. The upper walls of the rear two-storey elevation have a Rosemary style tile-hung finish, complementing the tile-hung pitched roof dormers. The windows are uPVC double glazed with white frames and heating is by a gas-fired central heating system with a pressurised domestic hot water system. The master bedroom suite has underfloor heating with digital wall mounted controllers. There is a security alarm system, and mains powered smoke alarms are strategically positioned. A water softener is located in the boiler cupboard and the kitchen features a high quality Quooker tap instantly dispensing, cold, boiling and sparkling water on demand.

The rooms are decorated in neutral contemporary themes and the large windows present some tremendous views over the landscaped gardens, the golf course beyond at the rear and down through the trees to Westgate Fields at the front – a view which changes dramatically through the seasons.

Externally, a long sweeping driveway leads up to a large parking forecourt and turning area whilst giving access to the substantial detached garage block. This building is large enough to accommodate three cars and has an impressive new remote-control motorised sectional and obscure-glazed door but also affords great potential for conversion into ancillary accommodation with a storage loft over the main garage area added by the present owner and featuring a tall, double-glazed gable window – possibly an ideal home office conversion (subject to planning permission and building regulation consent). The house is perfectly orientated for the sun, which travels around the level rear garden where sandstone patios are positioned for morning and afternoon sunshine. To the east side there are some useful outbuildings to include a hot tub room, garden store and workshop with further store.

In all, this is undoubtedly one of the most valuable and individual homes in Louth, occupying a rare, unique and very sought-after setting.

Location The property is situated within the market town of Louth which stands approximately 16 miles to the south of Grimsby, some 10 miles at its nearest point from the Lincolnshire coast and approximately 25 miles from Lincoln. Tylers Green is positioned on the south side of Crowtree Lane, a no-through lane on the west side of the town centre giving access to a variety of individual properties and the King Edward VI grammar school, together with the Louth golf club. The lane leads to Westgate Fields, a scenic wooded park opposite Tylers Green, and culminates in a further impressive park called Hubbard's Hills which was donated to the town in the early 20th century, with steep lawned and wooded banks and a pathway along the River Lud as it approaches the town centre.

Louth is a popular market town with a variety of independent shops, supermarkets, three markets each week, an operating cattle market, schools, academies and many sports clubs and societies. There is a cinema, a theatre, a variety of cafes, bars and restaurants. The town has an interesting central conservation area and Tylers Green is positioned on the perimeter of this designated area containing a rich variety of individual and Period properties dating back to Georgian Times.
