Summary - Heron House, Great Steeping PE23 5PT
3 bed 2 bath Cottage
Spacious period home with studio, parking and field views on the Wolds edge.
Detached period cottage circa 1800s, 1,593 sq ft
Heron House is a substantial period cottage offering generous, flexible living across 1,593 sq ft. Original character remains in feature fireplaces and sliding sash windows while recent works — new consumer unit (2022), high-pressure hot water system (2022), replaced boiler and redecoration — bring modern convenience. Four reception rooms and a long kitchen/breakfast area give plenty of family space and adaptability for home working.
A major strength is the detached 255 sq ft studio with light, power and heating, plus extensive off-road parking (room for a caravan). The private, fully enclosed rear garden opens onto field views and includes a powered wooden workshop — useful for hobbies, storage or a separate business base. The property is chain free and sits on the southern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired (not on a community network) and walls are traditional solid brick, which may require insulation works to improve thermal efficiency and running costs. Flood-risk is assessed as medium; purchasers should review local flood information and insurance implications. Broadband and mobile signals are average and village schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes, so check suitability for school-age families.
Overall this is a character-rich village home suited to families or buyers needing substantial space and outbuildings — especially those wanting a ready-made studio or workshop while accepting some ongoing energy and flood considerations.
