A very well-presented and modernised two bedroom mid-terrace cottage with a superb living room extension, pleasantly situated on the outskirts of Newark in a semi-rural setting, while remaining conveniently close to a good range of local amenities including shops and schools.
The property benefits from uPVC double glazing throughout and modern gas central heating via a combination boiler. The accommodation comprises a dining room and a well-appointed kitchen fitted with contemporary units and integrated appliances. A particular highlight of the home is the impressive living room extension, which creates a generous and light-filled living space with patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden.
To the first floor there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, along with a well-appointed bathroom fitted with a white suite.
Outside, there is off-road parking for one vehicle at the front of the property. To the rear is an enclosed garden, primarily laid to lawn with a paved patio, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation.
The sale of the property includes a share in the adjoining communal green space, enjoyed by approximately eight neighbouring residences. This attractive area is maintained for the use and enjoyment of the residents of Barnby Crossing Cottages and provides a pleasant additional outdoor amenity.
Barnby Crossing is ideally situated within one mile of excellent local amenities, including shops, schools, and Newark town centre. Nearby supermarkets include Morrisons, Asda, Waitrose, and Aldi, along with a recently opened M&S food hall. Newark's attractive town centre is centred around its mostly Georgian Market Square, which hosts regular markets and offers a charming mix of independent shops, boutiques, bars, restaurants, and cafes. A newly opened Waterstones in 2025 has added a welcome new dimension to the town's retail scene.
For recreation, the property is located in close proximity to Balderton Lake and the nearby Sconce and Devon Park offers pleasant walking trails, a riverside walk, a children's play area, and the popular Rumbles Cafe.
Newark is also well connected, with Northgate Station providing fast rail services to London King's Cross in around 1 hour 15 minutes, and Castle Station offering links to Nottingham, Lincoln, and Leicester. The A1 and A46 dual carriageways are both easily accessible.
The town benefits from highly regarded primary and secondary schools and a General Hospital, making it an excellent location for families and commuters alike.
