For the current owners, the purchase of 7 Lime Grove was motivated by its fantastic location and the ability to influence the design of its build. “The village is close to both Lincoln and Newark which has excellent rail links to London, plus it’s only a ten-minute drive to the A1. It has a great primary school and is in the catchment area for several sought-after grammar schools. And, as the house was still in the process of being built when we viewed it, we could adapt its design. We have a much-loved grandfather clock which is very tall so were delighted to be able to raise the ceiling height of the ground floor rooms to nine foot to accommodate it, and it also increased the sense of space and light throughout.”
“The kitchen/breakfast room and family room both look out over the gardens so, not only do they have lovely views, but they’re also really light and so it’s where everyone tends to congregate during the day. The sitting room is where we love to relax on an evening, particularly in the wintertime when the inglenook fireplace and multifuel stove really make the room feel cosy. The house is great for entertaining as it’s so spacious and, with six bedrooms, it’s always possible to accommodate last minute guests.”
“The rear garden is secluded and faces south-west so it gets the sun all day making it a great place to relax and, with the patio and BBQ, it’s also an ideal space for outdoor entertaining. The large lawn was great for trampolines and play equipment when the children were younger and, now the garden’s planting has matured, we have year-round colour and interest.”
“There are only eight houses in this cul-de-sac close to the centre of the village, so it’s a really peaceful, safe environment which has been a great place to live and bring up children. We’ve even celebrated a number of special events together such as the street parties we held to celebrate the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and, more recently, ve day.”
“Bassingham is a lovely place to live with a real community spirit, it’s within easy walking distance of nearby villages and the pubs in Aubourn and Norton Disney, there’s a great choice of walking and level cycling routes, and of course, it’s really convenient for visits to the historic cathedral city of Lincoln.”

A more comprehensive range of shopping, eating, and cultural facilities are available nearby in the vibrant historic cathedral city of Lincoln (10 miles), and the market town of Newark (9 miles) which boasts one of the finest Georgian market squares in the UK and offers frequent mainline train services to London King’s Cross.
