Summary

Welcome to Carlton Road, Bassingham an immaculately presented cottage dating back to the late 19th century. The current owners have expertly renovated the home to blend period character with contemporary luxury. The property boasts 2 bedrooms and a third bedroom located in the detached garden studio which is located within the walled rear garden. Upon entering the main residence, a welcoming entrance hall instantly showcases beautifully maintained period features such as traditional quarry tile flooring, leading through to the main living accommodation and a modernised four-piece ground floor family bathroom suite. There is a newly fitted shaker-style kitchen, meticulously designed with quartz worktops, eye and base level cabinetry and top-of-the-range integrated Bosch appliances. The room is perfectly balanced with period features such as a Belfast sink, breakast area with accompanying stools and original exposed beams to the ceiling. The heart of the home is the stunning lounge, centered around a feature multi-fuel burner and boasting elegant sliding doors that frame views over the rear garden. Upstairs, an impressive first-floor landing provides access to two beautifully presented bedrooms and a convenient first-floor WC.

The outdoor space is equally impressive, featuring a beautifully landscaped, walled rear garden complete with a luscious lawn, mature fruit trees, and vibrant floral borders that offer a high degree of privacy. Nestled within this private oasis is a detached garden studio, also fully renovated by the current owners, which currently provides a versatile third bedroom space with its own separate WC. This detached building offers a wide variety of potential use and could easily be remodelled to include an en-suite shower room, a larger living space, a dedicated work-from-home office, or even private business premises. Practical features have been thoroughly addressed, with the property benefiting from driveway parking, secure gated access and a modern oil boiler installed approximately four years ago, which retains the peace of mind of an active Worcester Bosch guarantee.
