Introduction - Surely one of the finest properties in Cottingham, Wynyates is tucked away off Thwaite Street, standing in grounds of approximately half an acre. This delightful, leafy and established location forms part of the Cottinghams conservation area (Wynyates is not listed), home to many properties of distinction and the property borders the Botanic Gardens to the east with the village centre in easy striking distance. Built in 1903 this beautifully appointed home has been lovingly refurbished and cared for over the years by the current owners and displays many fine period features together with generous proportions and a stunning contemporary kitchen extension with high quality fittings, grand island and appliances. The elegant and spacious accommodation extends to over 3,000 sq.ft. across two floors and is depicted on the attached floorplan. Of particular note are the fabulous reception rooms which can be enjoyed individually or have a more open plan layout when double doors open up to allow an attractive 'flow'. Overall, there are five bedrooms, two being en-suite which includes a superb main bedroom area. The accommodation has the benefit of uPVC double glazing and gas fired central heating via a modern Worcester boiler.

The property is entered through wrought iron gates which open to the long driveway leading to the rear parking courtyard and triple open barn style garaging. Sweeping lawns extend to the front, side and rear of the house complemented by a large terrace to enjoy the sun throughout the day. There may also be scope for development on the side garden, however no approach to the local planning authority has been made and we remind interested parties that the property sits within the Cottingham Conservation area.

In all, a simply outstanding property of which early viewing is strongly recommended.
