House For Sale £750,000
A charming and unique home, originally built in 1900 as a school for the local children of Tinwell, before being repurposed as the village hall.
In 1992 the property came up for sale and was subsequently purchased by a local lady who had spent time in the building and always admired it.
Today we find a charming home set within large south facing gardens which extend to just under 0.4 of an acre with uninterrupted views across open farmland with wonderful walks and great access to Stamford.
The house itself still retains some lovely features such as flag stones in the entrance hall and huge doors alongside the tall cathedral arch top windows to both the west and east gables.
Welcome Home - The reception hall with its mellow flagstone floor has access to the cloak room and a huge door into the first of three large reception rooms.
The sitting room has great ceiling height and large windows either side of the fireplace looking out onto the beautiful side gardens.
The carved stone fireplace has a flag stone hearth and an open grate for roaring fires on chilly evenings. French doors to the rear connect this room with the garden room which runs along the rear of this home.
Next door is a large dining room which is directly connected to both the kitchen and the garden room providing a great flow throughout the rooms.
The snug/TV room is dual aspect with the most peaceful views over the garden and surrounding open countryside making it the ideal place to relax or to study with a desk under the window.
For chillier evenings, there is the open fire in a stone fire surround which would transform this room into a cosy snug to settle down and watch a film.
A galley kitchen has a range of wall and floor cabinets along with a double electric oven, hob and extractor.
There is space for a breakfast table and chairs before we reach the utility room which has further wall and floor cupboards, a good size pantry, space for white goods and a large door leading outside.
Running along the rear of the house is a garden room which overlooks the garden and wonderful views beyond. This really is the most peaceful spot to relax, unwind and watch nature at its best.
Upstairs - There are a total of three bedrooms and three en suite bath/shower rooms around a central staircase.
The principal bedroom is dual aspect with far reaching views and benefits from an en suite shower room and a large dressing room offering plenty of wardrobe and storage solutions.
The guest bedroom is very peaceful and has an an suite bathroom with corner bath, wash hand basin and loo. There are also inbuilt wardrobes and space for a seating or dressing area.
The third bedroom has pretty views to the rear and an en suite shower room.
Step Outside - The gardens are a wonderful feature of this lovely home, facing south and bordered by a large hedge with room for all the family.
There is a large lawn with various seating spots in full sun or shade, a dry garden with shingle beds, various mature shrubs and plants, several areas for outdoor dining, a timber green house and a large summer house.
Towards the bottom of the garden is a pretty iron pergola which makes a lovely addition and gives another charming focal point to the garden.
A garage to the side of the property is a great size and is equipped with power and light. To the front of the property is a generous driveway bordered by a natural hedge.
Location - Tinwell is a charming village with a plethora of opportunities for calming walks, such as into the lovely market town of Stamford along a river and through meadows. Alternatively one can take a short drive to Stamford, in around 5 minutes, to take advantage of excellent schools, a train station, and shops, and enjoy its restaurants, cafes, Georgian architecture and more. Peterborough is around a 25 minute drive and has rapid trains to London in 49 minutes.
