2 bedroom cottageMain Street, West Ashby, Horncastle, LN9 5PT

A charming Grade II listed cottage with a wealth of original character, beautifully presented accommodation and a particularly attractive long rear garden enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding Lincolnshire countryside. Spye Cottage retains many of the features that give a period home its character, including exposed ceiling timbers, pine latch doors and impressive inglenook fireplaces, while the accommodation also benefits from a stylish modern kitchen, well-presented bathroom and utility room. The ground floor offers two generous reception rooms, each with its own character and original detailing including fireplaces both with log burning stoves, providing comfortable spaces for both relaxing and dining. The kitchen has been thoughtfully fitted with a good range of units, timber work surfaces and tiled splashbacks, with plenty of natural light from the windows overlooking the garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, both retaining the charm and individuality expected of a cottage of this age. The principal bedroom has exposed roof timbers and a lovely outlook, while the second bedroom also offers good proportions and character. Outside is where Spye Cottage really comes into its own. The rear garden extends a considerable distance from the property, incorporating areas of lawn, established planting, raised beds and seating areas, with mature trees and fencing providing a good degree of privacy. At the far end, the garden opens towards the surrounding countryside, with uninterrupted views across the neighbouring fields and towards the Lincolnshire Wolds. There is also useful outside storage and a number of areas from which to enjoy the garden, making it a particularly appealing space during the warmer months. The cottage occupies a prominent position on Main Street in the popular village of West Ashby, with the Georgian market town of Horncastle close by offering a good range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities. The surrounding countryside and Lincolnshire Wolds are also within easy reach. Arrange your viewing on the Purplebricks website or App.
