About this home
AN EXTRAORDINARY HOME WITH A UNIQUE STORY An exciting and genuinely rare opportunity to acquire Trumbles an incredible two-storey detached dwelling which was converted approximately eight years ago from the original detached garage, creating a highly individual home that is quite unlike anything else currently available. Set within the established and sought-after village of Great Coates, this remarkable property combines contemporary open-plan living with an abundance of character and bespoke features. Originally constructed on a substantial brick base with cavity wall insulation and complemented by a striking Siberian larch-clad first-floor elevation, the property has been thoughtfully designed to create a fabulous modern home with an emphasis on light, space and entertaining. At the heart of the property is a superb open-plan lounge, kitchen and living environment, complete with underfloor heating. The kitchen is fitted with a stylish combination of anthracite grey and sleek white contemporary cabinetry, and AEG appliances Email complemented by a substantial central island and generous dining area. The open-plan design continues through to a relaxing seating area, where impressive bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a wonderful connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. A striking dog-leg staircase leads to the first floor and an impressive gallery-style landing, which in turn gives access to the bedrooms and principal bathroom. The principal bedroom is a particular feature, enjoying an exceptional high vaulted ceiling with an impressive apex roofline, creating a dramatic and wonderfully spacious feel. Patio doors open across the front driveway, while fitted wardrobes provide useful storage. Bedroom Two is another generous room, thoughtfully arranged in an L-shaped design and enjoying natural light through Velux windows. There is also a useful third box room, currently ideal as a home office or study, but offering the flexibility to be used as an occasional bedroom when required. The accommodation is completed by a superb fully tiled contemporary shower room, featuring a large walk-in double shower, twin wash hand basins and WC.
OUTSIDE – ANOTHER DIMENSION The outside space is every bit as impressive as the accommodation itself. Immediately to the rear is an expansive combination of composite decking and granite patio, providing a fabulous setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation, with the bi-fold doors creating a seamless transition from the main living accommodation. The property also benefits from a highly useful fully insulated garden office, measuring approximately 13’4” x 8’10”, complete with bi-fold doors. This provides an excellent dedicated working-from-home environment . Adjoining the office is a substantial workshop measuring approximately 18’3” x 8’2”, benefiting from both power and lighting and providing superb additional storage or workspace. Beyond the main decked area is an additional storeyard, together with a useful shed, making the outside space exceptionally versatile for those requiring storage, workshop facilities or space for hobbies. To the front, the extensive driveway provides considerable off-road parking, with a gravelled access leading towards the road. The neighbouring property also benefits from access over the driveway.
LOCATION Trumbles occupies an enviable position within the popular dormitory village of Great Coates, which provides a pleasing blend of village surroundings and excellent accessibility. The village benefits from its own railway station and village hall, while excellent road connections provide straightforward access towards Grimsby, Cleethorpes and the wider area, together with convenient links to the M180 motorway network Properties of this individuality and versatility rarely come to the market. We strongly recommend an early viewing to fully appreciate the quality, character, space and sheer uniqueness that Trumbles has to offer. This really is a special property and an opportunity not to be missed.
