"An impressive new build home set within a tranquil edge of village location.

Description

Positioned in an elevated and private setting on the edge of the charming village of Pickworth, The Willows is an architect designed home inspired by the traditional vernacular barns once found across Lincolnshire, the property has been newly constructed with exceptional attention to detail and a commitment to modern comfort, energy efficiency, and timeless style.

Externally, the use of heritage brickwork, natural slate roofing, and classic barn proportions creates instant visual appeal. Inside, the house opens into a wide and welcoming entrance hall that sets the tone for the rest of the home elegant, light filled, and beautifully appointed.

The Willows is as energy conscious as it is visually impressive. The property features an air source heat pump, discreet solar panels, and underfloor heating to both ground and first floors. Together, these systems support year round comfort while reducing the home s environmental impact.

At the heart of the house lies the expansive open plan kitchen, a space designed to bring people together. Finished to an impeccable standard, it features a large central island with breakfast bar, quartz worktops, and hand built cabinetry offering deep storage. A full suite of high spec Miele appliances includes a double oven, induction hob with extractor and integrated dishwasher. A hot water tap offers instant boiling and filtered water. Dual aspect full height glazing, including French doors to the garden, bathes the space in natural light and enhances the connection between indoors and out.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a spacious utility boot room provides practical secondary access, ideal for country living.

From the kitchen, the space flows into the garden room; a vaulted, tranquil retreat surrounded by windows, offering panoramic views of the wraparound garden and mature trees beyond. It is a perfect spot for morning coffee, reading, or evening relaxation.

The sitting room is equally impressive, a triple aspect space flooded with light, featuring French doors that open onto a west facing terrace. This room connects seamlessly to the dining room, allowing for both formal and informal entertaining which in turn flows back through to the kitchen.

The first floor leads to four well proportioned bedrooms, all offering leafy views and an abundance of natural light. The principal bedroom is a true sanctuary, featuring a full length, south facing window that frames views across the garden canopy. A fully fitted dressing room leads into a luxurious en suite bathroom, complete with freestanding soaking tub, double basins, walk in shower, and high end finishes; a calm and indulgent retreat.

Bedroom two offers extensive fitted wardrobes and a sleek en suite shower room, while bedrooms three and four, both generous doubles, are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom.

Throughout the home, materials have been carefully selected for their quality and aesthetic oak flooring, soft neutral tones, and underfloor heating throughout both floors enhance the sense of comfort and understated sophistication.

Gardens and Grounds
Set within approximately half an acre, the grounds have been landscaped to provide seasonal interest and multiple outdoor living zones. Sweeping lawns, well placed specimen trees, and flowering borders frame the property with a natural beauty that complements its architectural form.

Multiple French doors create a fluid transition between house and garden, encouraging an al fresco lifestyle in warmer months. A west facing patio, perfect for evening dining, makes the most of the sunset views, while a generous gravel driveway and detached double carport a slate roof is being added imminently provide ample parking and practical storage.
