Tucked away along a peaceful country lane on the edge of the highly regarded village of North Kelsey, Highfield House is a beautifully renovated three-bedroom country cottage set within gardens and grounds extending to just over an acre. Over the past year, the current owners have undertaken a comprehensive programme of refurbishment, transforming the property into an exceptional family home that successfully combines the charm and character of an original country cottage with the comfort, efficiency and practicality of modern living.
STEP INSIDE A charming brick-built entrance porch opens into a welcoming entrance hall, with the principal reception rooms leading off to either side. To the left is the stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family living space, while to the right sits the beautifully renovated main lounge. Undoubtedly the heart of the home, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area has been thoughtfully redesigned to create an outstanding space for modern family life and entertaining. Stone-flagged flooring runs throughout and benefits from underfloor heating, providing both character and comfort. The beautifully crafted shaker-style kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of contemporary units complemented by elegant quartz work surfaces and a substantial centre island that forms the focal point of the room. A range of high-quality integrated appliances combines style with practicality, whilst the adjoining dining and seating areas provide ample space for family gatherings and social occasions alike. Leading from the kitchen is a matching utility room, created from the former rear porch and finished to the same high standard as the kitchen. Offering excellent laundry facilities and additional storage, it provides valuable practicality without compromising on style. Also accessed from the open-plan living space is a beautifully appointed ground floor shower room. Created as part of the comprehensive reconfiguration of the ground floor, it has been finished with quality contemporary fittings and offers excellent convenience for both family living and guests. Occupying the opposite side of the hallway, the main lounge provides a more intimate retreat. Having undergone a complete renovation, it combines original cottage character with contemporary styling. Solid wood parquet flooring adds warmth and elegance, whilst a recessed wood-burning stove beneath a substantial granite mantel creates an attractive focal point. Dual-aspect windows flood the room with natural light, making it a welcoming space throughout the year. To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The two principal double bedrooms have been enhanced with stylish panelled feature walls, creating characterful and sophisticated spaces, while the first bedroom also benefits from built in storage. The third bedroom benefits from a useful built-in storage cupboard housing the hot water cylinder, together with additional storage space. Serving the bedrooms is a stunning family bathroom that has been remodelled to a luxurious specification. A freestanding double-ended bath with floormounted taps takes centre stage, complemented by a generous walk-in shower, contemporary sanitaryware and an illuminated mirror, creating a space that rivals many boutique hotels.

STEP OUTSIDE The property's beautiful gardens and traditional outbuildings remain every bit as impressive as the house itself. A driveway extends along the side of the property, providing extensive parking and access to a superb collection of traditional outbuildings that offer tremendous versatility for a variety of uses. The principal barn incorporates a garage area alongside extensive storage space and a useful mezzanine level, while additional workshops provide ideal spaces for hobbyists, home businesses or further storage requirements. An attractive garden room with striking stone and brick elevations enjoys a wonderful position overlooking the grounds. Featuring a glazed frontage and roof, it offers a peaceful place to relax and enjoy the garden throughout the changing seasons. The mature gardens envelop the house and outbuildings, creating a wonderfully established setting. Carefully landscaped over many years, they feature sweeping lawns, mature trees, winding pathways and a tranquil pond, together with a variety of seating areas that enjoy different aspects of the grounds. Offering both beauty and space, the gardens provide an idyllic backdrop for family life, entertaining and gardening enthusiasts alike.
AGENTS OPINION Having sold Highfield House to the current owners, it is incredibly rewarding to see the transformation they have achieved. The attention to detail throughout the renovation is exceptional, with every element carefully considered to create a home that perfectly balances period character and contemporary living. The stunning open-plan kitchen and family space will undoubtedly be the centre of everyday life, whilst the lounge retains the cosy charm expected from a country cottage. Combined with the beautiful gardens, extensive outbuildings and peaceful setting, Highfield House is a superb lifestyle property that is ready for its next chapter
