Corner Cottage, dating back to the 18th Century, provides excellent well planned family accommodation with three reception rooms, four bedrooms, double garage and workshop. Range of domestic buildings and grounds extending to 0.3 acre or thereabouts.
The property, originally thought to be two cottages (there are two existing staircases) incorporates early stone base coursing in parts of the structure. Central heating is gas fired with panelled radiators and most windows are replacement uPVC double glazed units. A double garage and workshop were constructed just over twenty years ago and an extensive range of outbuildings, contemporary with the age of the cottage, are also of brick and pantile construction. The accommodation is well planned and practical for a modern family lifestyle. The property is conveniently situated and the village is only 3 miles from Newark and 5 miles from Southwell.
The accommodation comprises, on the ground floor, porch entrance, sitting room, conservatory, inner lobby, living room, dining room, 21' kitchen, utility room and pantry. The first floor provides a galleried landing, four bedrooms, master ensuite, bathroom and separate WC.
Averham, a small relatively unspoilt village with the Minster town of Southwell 5 miles to the south, and the thriving market town of Newark 3 miles to the east, is ideally located for schools and amenities. Southwell schooling is of renowned standards across the age ranges. The market town of Newark offers an extensive range of retail amenities, professional services, restaurants and leisure facilities including a sports centre and marina. From Newark there is direct access to the A1 national road network and fast direct rail links to London King's Cross with journey times just over 75 minutes. The City of Nottingham is approximately 20 miles and there is a direct rail service from Newark Castle station to Nottingham and Lincoln. Perhaps as just conveniently, commuters can catch a train from Fiskerton station direct to Nottingham city centre. The popular Fox Inn at Kelham is just under a mile away. The famous Robin Hood Theatre is located close to St Mary's Church in the village. Unusually Averham 'little theatre' has, in the past, hosted professional productions and enjoys great support from the wider locality.
