Summary - LINDUM COTTAGE CHURCH LANE SWABY ALFORD LN13 0BQ
3 bed 2 bath Cottage
Spacious three-bedroom cottage with large gardens and no immediate neighbours.
Breathtaking hillside and medieval village views
Perched on the brow of a hill, this three-bedroom detached cottage offers true rural seclusion and expansive hillside views over the shrunken medieval village of Swaby. Recently redecorated and sympathetically updated, the house blends cottage character — exposed brickwork, wood floors and a multi-fuel stove — with comfortable everyday living across two floors.
Set within a generous plot approaching a third of an acre, the grounds are a major feature: woodland glades, a wildflower meadow, wildlife pond (pump currently not working) and a former vegetable plot now planted with roses and shrubs. A gravel driveway behind timber gates leads to parking for three cars and a single garage. There are no immediate neighbours and lots of public footpaths and Wolds countryside on the doorstep.
Practical items to note: heating is oil-fired and the property uses a septic tank; broadband speeds are slow in this remoter area. There is a restrictive covenant requiring maintenance of the hedgerow and fence bordering neighbouring farmland. The location and plot offer scope for modest extension or further landscaping, subject to planning, making this appealing for buyers who value privacy and long-term potential.
Overall, the cottage suits buyers seeking a peaceful country retreat with character, garden space and outstanding views. It will particularly appeal to those who prioritise rural lifestyle and outdoor privacy, and who are comfortable with rural service arrangements and the maintenance that comes with a substantial garden.
