Stonecroft, Barnetby, DN38
8 bedroom Detached house For Sale
£950,000 | Available
Stonecroft house has always been a statement home and now, having been sympathetically returned to it’s former glories, it is, once again, a residence of confident elegance.
The first impression is of size: a fact continued by the grand entrance hall with its magnificent return staircase and geometrically patterned floor, however the beautifully lit and well proportioned rooms offer a warm, relaxed welcome of calm sophistication.
The home allows for all aspects of family life to be catered for: the dual aspect sitting room and matching dining room cater for more formal family gatherings and entertaining whilst the 31’8 modern day kitchen is a generous space for informal socialising and, together with the adjoining breakfast room, forms the relaxed centre of the home.
The ground floor also features a library and office which offer space for either quiet relaxation or for the home worker, and the practicalities of life are catered for by a large utility, separate laundry/pantry and a 14’9 cloak room which could easily accommodate a shower if required.
The main landing is as impressive as the reception hall - flooded with natural light. The 8 bedrooms are served by 3 individually styled en-suite shower rooms and a traditionally appointed family bathroom with both walk-in shower and free standing roll topped bath, ensuring that family and guests alike are easily accommodated.
There are, however, yet more gems: the discovery of Victorian wall paper to part of the inner landing, wood panelling in what would have been the servants’ corridor, the incised name plate over what is thought to be the original entrance and the second, servants’ staircase all hark back to the residences’ original stature as an impressive, yet intimate working home.
Standing in 2.3 acres , or thereabouts, of primarily lawned grounds with specimen trees and productive vegetable garden, Stonecroft House is revealed through wrought iron gates which open to a tree lined drive with broad reception area beyond ensuring a superb welcome to those inevitable guests. There is, of course, a detached double garage together with a workshop connected to the main house.
This is a significant home of balance - the restored and the new, the grand and the relaxed - and versatility - ideal for both single family or multi-generational living if required - which enjoys a semi rural location within reach of the regions major communication centres of Lincoln, Grimsby and Hull via the M180 motorway network, main line rail connections and further abroad through Humberside international airport.
Stonecroft House - where your family history begins.
A practical dual aspect space leading from the side entrance, with flagged floor, exposed brick work and covered water cistern. It also allows access to the WORSHOP (5.97m x 3.06m), additional store and garden toilet.
