Wigthorpe Cottage is a truly charming four bedroom detached home situated in a Conservation area within the most idyllic of locations overlooking open countryside.

This is a period, character property that has been completely restored and extended over recent years, creating a truly unique house. The latest addition of the oak orangery to the kitchen gives an open plan entertaining and family gathering space enjoying views across the cottage style gardens. 

Wigthorpe is a beautiful hamlet in semi-rural Nottinghamshire, where you have all the benefits of countryside walks in a very quiet location but also sitting close to major road and rail links, very good schooling, shops and amenities. 

The internal accommodation in brief comprises the following. 

Entrance vestibule leading through to the reception hall which has exposed beams to the ceiling along with the staircase leading to the first floor. 

Drawing room having a bay window to the rear elevation enjoying views of the gardens along with a window to the front elevation overlooking a Heritage protected field of pastureland and a further window to the side elevation.  This is a light, spacious and generously proportioned room with beams to the ceiling with the focal point of the room being the open fireplace, which has a hand crafted oak surround. 

Sitting room which has beams to the ceiling along with a window to the front elevation. The focal point is the natural cut stone fireplace with a clean air flow, inset multi fuel stove. The burner makes this a wonderfully warm and cosy room and also contributes to the oil-fired central heating system. 

Dining room with two windows to the front elevation, beams to the ceiling along with exposed stone walling. An open fireplace with a natural oak mantle has an inset Douvre multi fuel stove and canopy.
