STEP INSIDE 83 High Street A rare chance to purchase a charming and totally refurbished, two-bedroom period cottage, nestling between other historic properties in a conservation area in the heart of the much sought after Lincolnshire Cliff village of Navenby. Built of traditional brick with pantile roof and believed to date back to 1852, Old Hall Cottage provides unique and impressive living accommodation with an abundance of original and contemporary features throughout.

Arranged over three floors, the property is beautifully appointed and provides wonderful living accommodation, including a recently installed handcrafted kitchen with separate utility area and access through to a warm and cosy lounge/dining room with an array of features including a log burner with flue and exposed stone wall. Upstairs, there is a light and airy bedroom with fitted cupboards to the first floor and a well-appointed fitted bathroom leading off the main landing area. To the second floor, there is a further bedroom, currently used as a home office with exposed oak beams and a Velux roof window providing plenty of light.

A sheltered courtyard style back garden leads off the utility room, which provides a paved terrace area from the back door and steps leading up to a delightful and private raised seating area, with an array of planted beds and a useful covered log store. The back garden is accessed via a separate pedestrianised gate, which leads round to the High Street and there is also a separate designated parking area for two vehicles to the rear of the gardens. In such a convenient position with everything you might need, and a primary school, all within walking distance, this beautifully presented property suits a young family, a couple or indeed, an individual.

INFORMATION 83 High Street Location Attractive Navenby lies on the A607 about 10 miles (15 mins) south of Lincoln and is one of the larger ‘cliff’ villages standing on the limestone escarpment that runs north to south in the centre of Lincolnshire. Newark-on-Trent in Nottinghamshire is about 15 miles (20 mins) southwest, and Sleaford about 10 miles (15 mins) southeast. Fast trains from Newark to central London take around 75 minutes making it perfectly feasible for a day trip into the capital. Grantham is less than a half hour drive south where there is also a train station, fast trains to Kings Cross taking around an hour.

A few years ago, Navenby was voted one of the top rural locations in Britain in which to live. A charming village with a lovely mix of traditional stone period properties, many listed buildings, it is a thriving community. The property is situated very close to the heart of the village so everything is within an easy walk. There are several family-run shops and businesses such as Welbourne’s Bakery which is one of the longest standing artisanal bakeries in the county, and Welbourne’s Tea Room. The main supermarket is the Co-op although there is a One-Stop convenience store almost opposite; there is a medical centre, two pubs, The Lion & Royal and The King’s Head, as well as the popular Macy’s Brasserie. A new community centre, The Navenby Venue, is a hub of activity for many clubs, classes and events.

Navenby straddles the old Roman Road, Ermine Street, as well as the Viking Way providing wonderful country walks with views across the Trent Valley, and much local history. Mrs. Smith’s Cottage is a popular museum in the village illustrating a century of rural Lincolnshire life.
