4 bed semi-detached house for sale

The Street, Sculthorpe NR21

Greyhound Cottage

A charming and beautifully presented three/four bedroom character cottage, formerly the village public house, situated in the peaceful village of Sculthorpe. Offering spacious and versatile accommodation, a wealth of character features, two wood-burning stoves, enclosed gardens, a courtyard barn and off-road parking, this delightful property perfectly combines traditional charm with modern comforts.

Steeped in history, Greyhound Cottage was once home to The Greyhound public house and still retains reminders of its fascinating past, including a former cellar and cosy snug. The property has been thoughtfully updated and tastefully decorated throughout, creating a welcoming home that blends period character with contemporary living.

Upon entering the cottage, you are welcomed into a spacious sitting room, featuring generous proportions and a charming wood-burning stove, creating an inviting space to relax and unwind. Adjoining the sitting room is a separate dining room, complete with a feature fireplace and ample space for a large dining table, making it ideal for entertaining family and friends.

A few steps lead up to the delightful snug, which provides an additional reception room with its own wood-burning stove. This versatile space would be equally suited as a home office, children's playroom or cosy retreat. Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed country-style kitchen, offering a range of fitted units, generous worktop space and space for appliances, with direct access to the rear courtyard.

To the first floor, the accommodation continues to impress with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly attractive feature of the property, arranged over two levels with a raised sleeping area accommodating a super-king-size bed, a separate dressing area and an en-suite wet room. The second bedroom is another generously proportioned double, whilst the third bedroom provides an ideal space for children, guests or alternatively a home office. A family bathroom, complete with a bath and shower over, serves the remaining bedrooms.

Outside, Greyhound Cottage benefits from a choice of enclosed outdoor spaces. Immediately to the rear of the property is a charming courtyard garden, providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond the courtyard barn is a further enclosed and attractively landscaped cottage garden, incorporating gravelled seating areas, bark and meadow-style planting, creating a peaceful space to enjoy the surroundings.

A further feature of the property is the courtyard barn, which offers exciting potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary planning permissions and consents. Although currently unconverted, the barn provides an opportunity for prospective purchasers to explore its future possibilities, whether as a games room, hobby space or additional recreational area.

Greyhound Cottage presents a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a characterful permanent residence, countryside retreat or potential holiday let investment, subject to any necessary consents. With its generous accommodation, charming original features and attractive village setting, this is a property that offers something rather special.
