About this listing

A characterful village home with an abundance of period features, generous gardens and tremendous potential to create something truly special. Offered with no onward chain. Set in the heart of the picturesque village of East Harlsey, Cobwebs is a wonderfully individual semi-detached period home, occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.18 acres. Behind its traditional façade lies a property brimming with character, from exposed beams and timber-panelled doors to period fireplaces, sliding sash windows and an impressive traditional range. The house now requires comprehensive modernisation, but therein lies much of its appeal. For a purchaser with imagination, Cobwebs provides an increasingly rare opportunity to sympathetically restore and enhance a home while retaining the features and individuality that give it such charm. The accommodation extends to approximately 1,500 sq ft and offers a versatile arrangement of reception rooms. At the heart of the original house is the atmospheric sitting room, where a beamed ceiling and traditional range fireplace immediately evoke the property's history. From here, the accommodation flows into a cosy snug, itself rich in character with exposed timbers, timber flooring and a period fireplace. A separate living room provides another generous reception space, again displaying exposed ceiling beams and a fireplace, while the dining room provides a dedicated setting for entertaining and connects with the rear hall and kitchen. The kitchen offers an opportunity for a future owner to introduce their own design and specification, while an adjoining workshop/utility area provides further potential. Subject to the necessary works, this space could be reconfigured to create a particularly useful combination of laundry/utility room and ground-floor cloakroom. Upstairs, the landing opens into a surprisingly generous study area, providing useful additional space for home working, reading or hobbies. There are two bedrooms, including an impressive principal bedroom with a vaulted ceiling that enhances its sense of space and character, together with a second bedroom and bathroom. The gardens are a particularly appealing feature of Cobwebs and provide a delightful setting for the house. To the front, the property is approached through a substantial enclosed lawned garden, screened by mature hedging and complemented by established trees and shrubs. A pathway leads through the garden to the house, creating a charming first impression and a welcome degree of separation from the village. To the rear is a further garden with useful outbuildings, adding both storage and further potential. Cobwebs is not a property seeking perfection in its current form. Instead, it offers something arguably more interesting – a genuine period home with personality, original features and the scope for its next owner to create an exceptional village residence. With approximately 1,500 sq ft of accommodation, a 0.18-acre plot, three reception rooms plus a study area, mature gardens and no onward chain, this is an exciting opportunity for anyone looking for a character property and a rewarding renovation project in the heart of East Harlsey.
