Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Scunthorpe, DN15 :
Fine & Country Northern Lincolnshire are delighted to present to the market this stunning example of late Georgian Architecture. Located in the heart of the ever-popular village of Winterton, Blankney House has graced the corner of Low Street for over 200 years with its impressive raised and railed porticoed entrance and shuttered windows. The robust stone frontage is perfectly counterbalanced by the fine window bars, delicately spindled staircase and gracefully proportioned principal reception rooms which typifies its Georgian heritage.
Beyond the impressive façade however lies an immensely practical family home and spacious enclosed gardens. The current owners have restored the fabric of the home with renovated sashes, lime plastered kitchen and reinstatement of the second floor staircase and there is scope for the purchaser to enhance further whilst maintaining the period details.
This Grade II Listed home is entranced through a panelled door to a reception hall with mahogany railed return staircase. The principal drawing room and dining room are superbly balanced with sash windows to two aspects. The inner hallway leads to the practical heart of the home with a 20'8 white fitted kitchen, rear utility entrance and useful snug/study.
The main spindle balustraded landing allows access to the master suite which includes a double bedroom with large en-suite with both bath and separate shower. Again the second bedroom is well balanced and mirrors the ground floor. A rear landing allows access to the third double bedroom and the newly installed staircase leads to the second floor fourth bedroom with dressing room off and stairs to the full attic.

VENDOR INTERVIEW
\"Finding this wonderful Georgian house with all of its original features intact was incredible,\" comments Richard \"Blankney House had so much character and charm she was impossible to resist. There is such a lovely elegant and graceful atmosphere about the entire house that we affectionately call her the Old Lady of Winterton. Restoring this house has been a fascinating journey, peeling back the ages to reveal the Georgian origins, and restoring the house to its former glory has been an absolute labour of love.\" The elegant Palladian proportions of each reception room add to the grace and sophistication of its unique features. Original shutters are in working order, the ornate plasterwork in the cornicing and ceilings and of course the grandeur of the Adams fireplaces complete with their cast iron hob grate come together to underline that this is indeed a rare and fabulous gem. Even the original ornate ironwork railings, at the front of the house, remain and are all still intact. \"As one would imagine, entertaining here is just magnificent,\" continues Chris \"the dining room is the perfect backdrop for any formal occasion and at Christmas time it feels like it really is the only place to be. After dinner we retreat to the living room with a log fire crackling away in the grate and enjoy the warmth that the house so readily exudes.\" \"It always feels so light and bright,\" says Richard \"and it is such a spacious home, space for us all to be together and space enough to find a quiet area to work or just be alone with your thoughts. When it is a moment of stillness and reflection that is required there is no better place to be than in the gardens - it came as a surprise and was very unexpected to find a garden of this size and it is so private it feels almost a secret garden.\" With stone walls and long yew and box lined pathway to the end of the garden, a parterre, extensive lawns, vegetable area and wonderfully mature trees and a pond - there are many different areas of the garden in which to enjoy a relaxing afternoon or just sit under the shade of a tree and let the world spin at its own speed.* * These comments are the personal views of the current owners and are included as an insight into life at the property. They have not been independently verified, should not be relied on without verification and do not necessarily reflect the views of the agent.
