Details

Willowbeck is a rather special detached barn conversion, archetypally constructed of brick with a pantile roof and full of charm and character. Of particular note is the expanse of exposed timber beams and trusses throughout. 

This stunning property has been the much-loved home of the current owner and their family for the past twenty-five years and sits on a wonderful plot of 3.2 acres or thereabouts. 

Extremely well-presented accommodation is set out over ground and first floor levels. Upon entering the entrance hallway you get an immediate indication of the quality and high standard of presentation that prevails throughout this special home. A staircase rises to the first floor and there are doors into the lounge, dining room, kitchen and ground floor cloakroom which has a toilet and wash basin. 

The lounge itself is a notable feature of the home. An exposed brick fireplace here houses a log burner, the large picture window frames a most pleasant outlook over the gardens and paddock beyond and the depth of the vaulted ceiling exudes a feeling of grandeur. 

The dining room adjoins the lounge and has double doors that open to the gardens. 

The kitchen is fitted with a range of quality base and wall cupboards with complementary work surfaces. There’s a built-in double oven and microwave oven, a four-ring hob and an integrated fridge and dishwasher. A window overlooks the garden and there’s a door into the utility room where there’s a stable door to the exterior, further storage cupboards, a Belfast sink, plumbing for a washing machine and space for an additional appliance such as a tall fridge/freezer. Back in the kitchen an adjoining reception area offers versatility for its purpose and is used by the current owner as a sitting room where they take advantage of another lovely outlook over the gardens. A study is accessed from here where another set of doors open up into the garden. 

Up on the first floor the galleried landing itself is impressive and provides access into the four bedrooms and bathroom. The principal suite has a shower room and dressing room where a staircase rises to a raised bedroom where a feature porthole window provides a stunning view over the gardens and paddock to the countryside beyond. The three remaining bedrooms all have lovely outlooks over the gardens and the bathroom is fitted with a freestanding bath, a toilet, a wash basin and a shower enclosure with a mains fed shower fitting. 

It is worth mentioning that there are plenty of storage solutions throughout both the ground and first floors of the house. 

A separate detached garage building houses an extremely useful and versatile self-contained studio/home office with cloakroom/wc, perfect for those who work, or run a business, from home. 

A double garage has an electrically operated door and the workshop/additional garage is accessed via double doors. Both these areas interconnect internally. 

With a first-floor level that extends to an impressive 42ft (12.8m), this building offers the potential for conversion to a self-contained annexe or Airbnb, subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents. 

The gardens are an absolute credit to the current owner and need to be inspected in person to be fully appreciated. As previously referred to, the grounds extend to 3.2 acres or thereabouts, the majority of which benefit from a south-facing aspect. Established trees including various fruit trees and a focal point willow tree are complemented by an abundance of shrubs and flowering plants, vegetable plots and a greenhouse. 

The extent of the paddock may mean that this stunning home will appeal to those with equestrian interests. Towards the bottom of the paddock a pond, at the time of writing, is currently home to a family of moorhens and is another lovely feature of the property. 

Situated in the highly regarded hamlet of Kersall, the property is conveniently located nine miles north-west of Newark on Trent and five miles south-east of Ollerton, towns linked by the A616. The A1, A46, A614 and A617 are all easily accessible and, for this reason, Kersall and the surrounding villages are a poplar choice with commuters.  

As a final note, the sale of Willowbeck brings about a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a special home in a fantastic location and early enquiries and viewings are therefore encouraged. 

Agents Note: The neighbouring property has a legal right to enter the grounds for the purpose of inspecting, renewing and repairing their septic tank, giving the appropriate notice and making good all damage or disturbance which may be caused by the exercise of such rights. There is a short public right of way over a small section of the garden. Further information on both of these points can be obtained by contacting the selling agent.
