THE CHURCH OF ST STEPHEN, FOSSE WAY, BROUGH, NEWARK, NG23 7QE

DESCRIPTION
A 19th Century village Church of considerable character, now with Planning Permission for extension and change of use to an inspired three bedroom home.

The approved drawings show a contemporary home, yet respectful of its heritage, briefly comprising Entrance Porch, stunning open plan Living Dining Kitchen arrangement with vaulted ceiling open to full roof height, two ground floor bedrooms, one of which has an en suite shower room, house bathroom and rear lobby. A staircase ascends to a further mezzanine bedroom.

The Seller's architect estimates the floor area on completion is approx. 120.5m² (1,297 sqft)

Outside the former church is set back from Fosse Way with wraparound gardens and the ability to create off road parking as per the planning permission.

LOCATION

As such the village is ideal for those wishing to commute into Newark or Lincoln or access the A1 in the west from which the wider motorway network is available. Nearby Collingham has a good range of local amenities and full facilities may be found in the trent side town of Newark and Cathedral city of Lincoln.
