Description

This detached Georgian cottage, believed to date back to 1768, presents a unique opportunity for restoration aficionados and investors alike. Positioned prominently on a corner plot in a highly regarded village known for its community spirit and amenities, this property is steeped in history and character. The expansive accommodation spans two floors and includes attached outbuildings and a garage, all providing substantial potential for renovation and modernization. The ground floor features an entrance hall leading to a spacious lounge and separate dining room, both boasting the generous proportions typical of Georgian architecture. The kitchen, situated at the rear, offers access to a pantry and rear lobby. Additional rooms on this level include a bathroom, separate WC, and a conservatory that opens into the garden. Upstairs, the first-floor landing connects four bedrooms alongside another WC, offering considerable flexibility for reconfiguration depending on your vision—subject to necessary consents. The external space is complemented by an enclosed garden and driveway accessed through timber double gates, ensuring both privacy and accessibility within the village setting. Currently in need of significant repair work throughout, this property is ideally suited to those looking for a rewarding refurbishment project in a desirable location. Claypole itself offers local amenities including schools, churches, and public houses while being conveniently close to transport links like the A1 and Newark North Gate railway station that provides direct services to London King’s Cross in around 75 minutes. With its blend of period charm and modern accessibility, this cottage represents an enticing venture for anyone eager to restore it to its former glory.
