Our vendor's story:

“Notown” is the perfect name for my dream home. Sitting in between the old part of
Bleasby and the new, my quaint 19th century cottage manages to turn heads in spite
of the unassuming frontage. It’s a cottage of surprises, living up to its name by
blending old with new. I fell in love with its cosiness, fireplace warmth, cast iron thumb
latches and decorative period fireplaces, and with a young family, having an
exceptional primary school within walking distance, definitely enhanced its appeal. It’s
a family home that gives and gives….an open kitchen dining space for family meals
and for keeping a close eye on homework…I call it the hub of the house, positioned
right at the centre of the home attracting in friends & family like a magnet. Off the
kitchen hub are the cosy retreat spaces, including my favourite snug hideaway with its
blazing fire; a protective cocoon at the end of a long day. The next door music room
can be closed off for privacy and essential soundproofing. And then there’s the bright
garden room overlooking the pretty courtyard, for a Spring-time retreat with a good
book.

The versatility of Notown’s space is one of its greatest hidden secrets. The striking
annexe, with its own private entrance at the back of the house, has served as a
teenage getaway, as a family party and Christmas entertaining space, and as a highly
popular Airbnb. By renovating the utility into a kitchenette, it could very easily become
completely self-contained for the care of elderly parents or family.
And finally, I must highlight the ultimate retreat bathroom in the cottage part of the
house, with a huge roll top bath & wet-room shower. Lay back in the bubbles and
watch the clouds float by across the sky light window.
A dream bathroom for a cosy dream home.
