Situated close to the heart of Kegworth, this stunning and characterful semi-detached home blends period charm on the outside with modern convenience on the inside.
Forming part of a conversion of the historic former Co-Op building, dating back to 1905, this unique residence boasts high ceilings, an abundance of natural light through full-height glazed sash windows and intricate brickwork on the gable end.
Stepping inside, you are welcomed by a beautiful hallway, setting the tone for the space and style that defines this home. The expansive lounge is bathed in light, offering a warm and inviting retreat, while the open-plan living dining kitchen area to the rear provides space for entertaining, complete with French doors leading out to the private garden. The contemporary kitchen is beautifully appointed with shaker-style cabinetry, sleek work surfaces, and premium integrated appliances to include an AEG double oven, 5 ring gas hob, fridge, freezer and dishwasher, ensuring both style and functionality.
A convenient utility room off the kitchen provides a further sink, handy shelved larder storage and space for a washing machine and dryer. Whilst a stylish WC situated off the hall completes the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, the sense of space continues with three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a lovely principal suite featuring a striking arched sash window, a nod to the property's heritage. The accompanying en-suite shower room is elegantly finished, while the stylish family bathroom offers further luxury with modern fittings and finishes.
Externally, the property enjoys a fore garden and a covered storm porch entrance. The enclosed rear garden provides good outdoor space with a shed, lawned area and patio, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Additionally, the property benefits from two allocated off-road parking spaces on a neatly block-paved area opposite.
Situated on a peaceful one-way street yet just moments from the vibrant village centre, this home offers convenience.
