47A Main Street is an individual detached village house of considerable charm, occupying an attractive position within the sought-after conservation village of Aldwincle and enjoying delightful views across open countryside to the rear.
Constructed in a traditional style with stone elevations beneath a pitched roof, the property offers well-balanced and versatile accommodation extending to approximately 1,195 sq ft, arranged predominantly over a single storey with the added benefit of a mezzanine level. The house combines characterful architectural features with practical modern living, whilst also presenting an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to further update and personalise the accommodation to their own taste and specification.
Well screened from the road and set behind a generous frontage, the property enjoys a particularly private approach with a large front garden and gravelled driveway providing ample off-road parking together with a covered car port. The mature frontage creates an attractive sense of arrival and further enhances the property's secluded feel within the center of the village.
The Property
The principal reception space is particularly impressive; a generous sitting room centered around an inglenook fireplace incorporating a cast iron wood-burning stove, with vaulted elements and a mezzanine area adding both volume and architectural interest. The adjoining conservatory provides an attractive secondary reception space, enjoying direct access to the garden and views beyond.
The kitchen/breakfast room is well proportioned and fitted to accommodate informal dining, although now offers scope for modernisation. The bedroom accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, with the principal bedroom benefitting from fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room, complemented by two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. Throughout, the property would benefit from a programme of cosmetic updating, presenting a rare opportunity to create a highly individual village home in a particularly desirable setting.
To the rear, the gardens are a notable feature of the property, having been carefully maintained and enjoying a pleasant outlook across adjoining fields and surrounding countryside.
