Avalon Main Road, Keal Cotes, Spilsby

The definition of more than meets the eye... This truly stunning and private three bedroom detached cottage is immaculately presented through-out, and is nestled within approximately 1.7 acres (STS) of beautifully kept gardens, with enviable views looking out across the Lincolnshire Wolds...

According to Arthurian Legend - Avalon is a mythical place of magic. We can absolutely assure you that Avalon is not legend, it's not just a tall tale, it is very much real, and it's right here at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds. A place of magic though? It is that indeed. Once you've absorbed and been enamoured by this gorgeous, cute but unbelievably spacious cottage, you'll step into a garden that is absolutely a place of magic. So where do we begin? The jaw drops as your eyes dance from area to area, as you slowly realise that every part of this breath-taking property has been so well planned and executed. The grounds include a large gravelled driveway with a gated entrance, a wonderful scented herb garden, a private and enclosed raised patio area where the hot tub currently resides, a large original brick laid seating area that faces out to over 1.5 acres of garden - with tall trees that speak with the wind, a small orchard of fruit trees including apple, pear, plum and cherry, a large outbuilding that could have a range of uses, as well as simply huge sprawling lawns.

Inside the home itself, a good sized entrance hall starts the journey off. There's a spacious and modern shower room straight ahead, with a door to the open plan living area to the left. Step in, and the room opens up to a 416 square feet lounge space. The lounge and dining area are open plan to each other, with dual aspect windows bringing lots of natural light in, with a broad archway that leads into the kitchen that then L-Shapes to the right to span the width of the property. Again, a spacious room fitted out with modern and classy cupboard doors, work surfaces and appliances. The the open plan living area has a door that goes into the third bedroom, which could of course be used as an office/study, hobby room or perhaps a playroom. A great feature to this room is the fact there's a door that leads right out into the small and private herb garden that's at the side of the property.

As we climb the stairs, the hallway area has three doors - bedroom one and two, and the family bathroom. Bedroom one is set at the front aspect of the home and overlooks the large frontage, the modern bathroom is to the side aspect, overlooking the private raised patio area that is bordered by lawn and tall conifers, then the second bedroom at the rear enjoys far reaching views that extend beyond the stunning gardens, right across to the hills of The Wolds.

The property has been modernised to the highest standard from top to bottom. High quality fixtures and fittings are present through-out with every small detail considered. There are air conditioning and heating units through out, a beautiful large log burning stove in the lounge, the flooring on the first floor and stairway have treated and restored exposed floorboards, with very well fitted and a beautiful looking wood effect tiles that flow through the whole of the open plan living area. In the kitchen, the integrated appliances, the colour schemes, aesthetics and general layout is the epitome of modern class and style, and just a pleasure to work in. Large surfaces areas and equally large amounts of storage, flush fronted doors that are push-to-open finish the modern feel perfectly in this very well thought out space.

Location wise - Avalon sits in Keal Cotes, and is what's known as a linear village. Straddling the A16, the village is approximately 4 miles south of the market town of Spilsby, and 12 miles north of Boston. There are many rural and well serviced villages in the immediate vicinity, such as West Keal, Stickney, Revesby and Mareham Le Fen, all with a range of amenities, activities, points of interest and schools. The coast is only 12 miles away, with a trip by car to Skegness being around 16 miles / 26 minutes away.

Entrance Hall

2m x 1.7m - 6'7" x 5'7"
Stepping foot through the uPVC door with inset glazing, the entrance hall is tiled with slate grey tiles, a window to the right hand side aspect, and doors that lead on into the shower room, and left into the lounge area.

Lounge Diner

8.7m x 4.4m - 28'7" x 14'5"
This gorgeous, large, bright, open plan living dining area is the absolute hub of the home. Boasting three dual aspect windows to the front and right hand side, the room is further complimented with two sets of multi-directional ceiling lights and wall mounted down-lights. There's a wonderful log burning stove ready to kick out ample heat during the cooler months, as well as a wall mounted air conditioning unit for the summer, which itself is also capable of introducing warm air. The room is finished with wood effect tiles that run seamlessly through to the kitchen which really brings this whole area into one large and comfortable living space.

Kitchen

6.3m x 2.6m - 20'8" x 8'6"
The kitchen is accessible via a broad archway from the dining end of the open plan living area, which gives the whole area such a spacious and airing feel. Triple aspect windows to either side and the rear give a stunning outlook to your gardens and beyond. This beautiful and modern kitchen offers excellent contrast to the light and bright emulsioned walls, with matte black work surfaces and dark wood effect push to open floor and wall cabinets. The design is sleek and clean with flush fitted fronts, with integrated appliances set behind doors that really simplify and further compliment the aesthetics. You can find an induction hob, extractor hood, microwave, fan assisted oven, dish washer and fridge freezer all fitted in, with a separate glass fronted drinks fridge too. There are two multipoint ceiling lights, and a door that leads to the rear patio area.

Shower Room

2.2m x 2m - 7'3" x 6'7"
The downstairs shower room has been partly tiled, and has a partition wall that encloses the shower on three sides. There's a WC and wash basin with a double cupboard underneath, and a mirrored cabinet above. There's a window to the side aspect, with an extractor fan to the top left hand side.

Bedroom

4.8m x 2m - 15'9" x 6'7"
To conclude our tour of the downstairs, we finish in the third bedroom. The same flooring continues in from the lounge, along with an additional air conditioning / heating unit mounted on the wall. There's a window to the side aspect overlooking the herb garden, along with a uPVC door.

Bedroom

4.4m x 3.5m - 14'5" x 11'6"
Overlooking the front of the home down to the large, private, gated driveway is the master bedroom. As per the lounge and downstairs bedroom, you'll find a wall mounted air conditioning and heating unit. Treated and white painted floorboards really give the upstairs a feeling of authenticity, tastefully playing homage to it's original look. A large hessian style rug sits underneath the centrally positioned bed which offers a contrast in colour and texture and really gives us that cottage feel.

Bedroom

3.5m x 3.3m - 11'6" x 10'10"
Bedroom two may not take the lions share on size compared to the master, but it sure does make up for it on its view from the rear. Don't get us wrong - at just shy of 124 square feet, this is not a small room, it's a more than generous double. There's also an integrated double cupboard/wardrobe which frees up the need to have storage built and taking up floor space, as well as also having a wall mounted air conditioning and heating unit. That view from the window is something you simply must come and see for yourself.

Family Bathroom

2.4m x 1.5m - 7'10" x 4'11"
The family bathroom is in-keeping with the general look and feel of the home - it's simplistic, very well maintained, immaculately clean, and beautifully bright with the choice of décor. There's a lovely free-standing bath, with a tiled wall alongside it, a WC, corner situated wash basin with mosaic splashback tiles and cupboard space below, a tall chrome towel radiator, a three point ceiling light, extractor fan, and a window to the side aspect. The flooring is laid with a grey stone effect laminate which finishing this contemporary room perfectly.

Side Gardens

As we go outside, either side of the property has two completely different vibes going on. There's an established and planted herb garden one side which has been separated off. Mint, chive, rosemary, thyme, it's all growing beautifully here amongst the gravel and soil that's dotted around. Protected at all sides with fencing, hedgerow or the property, this is a relatively low-wind area so it's perfect for young delicate plants and flowers to flourish beautifully. The other side of the house has also been separated off, and is also private, as this is the hot tub zone. There's a raised patio area with lawn all around it, with a gate and fence that partitions off the main rear garden. Having a spa out here, the area is served with water and electrics.

Rear Gardens

This is truly a breath-taking garden. Separated into essentially three main parts, yet seamlessly connected, we start with the large brick laid patio area at the foot of the home. Approximately 100ft down the garden, you'll find a large 32ft x 13ft outbuilding served with power, lighting, a water supply and drainage. Adjacent to this, there are lawns that lead to a group of stunning trees, with mature fruit trees planted in a line in it's shadows. To the back of this area, there are further open lawns that offer stunning views across to the Wolds. Having been fully enclosed and bordered by hedgerow, trees and fencing, the area is safe, private and protected, but still offers a beautiful vista. As the land starts to taper off, there are further gardens to the side, with a large static caravan currently in situ in it's own private area. There's so much to see in this vast space, it's an absolute must view.
