House For Sale £650,000

With finely proportioned rooms benefitting high ceilings and generous windows, this four bedroomed home is filled with natural light and has a wonderful connection to its spacious, sunny garden behind. Excellent state and independent schools are within very easy reach at both primary and secondary levels. EPC Rating C
“We were renting on the other side of the square when this house came up for sale and we couldn’t believe our luck - we jumped at the opportunity and bought it. It is fantastically built, and we could see the potential to add to it; they don’t come to market very often and so we were really lucky to secure it. The square is a wonderful place to live and the cherry blossom in the spring is a sight to behold!”
“We have enjoyed turning the house into a wonderfully proportioned and balanced family home. We have extended the kitchen and added double doors on each side that open out onto the spacious patio. The kitchen/breakfast room with a 3-oven Aga is the heart of the home, and this flows both into the dining room and out onto the patio with the barbecue area. This means the house can be open plan for casual entertaining or adapted for a more cosy or formal feel. We have spent so much time outside enjoying barbecues in all weathers as the area is heated and the pergola is covered. It looks out onto the pond and rose garden and is totally secluded – it is such a lovely spot. We have also recently added a dressing room and large en suite creating a really comfortable master suite”
“We have laid high quality, practical, hardwearing Amtico flooring in the hall, dining room and new master bedroom en suite and Karndean in the kitchen. There is also a new Worcester Bosch boiler with a 10 year manufacturer’s guarantee”
“In addition, there are the solar panels which are part of the government scheme until November 2036. They are generating in excess of £2,300 per year which is index linked. This would mean a minimum of approximately £35,000 of income over the guaranteed period”
“We are going to miss the practicality of living here. Not only are there open spaces to step into and go for a walk, but there is a tennis court, a skate park, children’s play area, a basketball court and a football pitch. Also on the doorstep is a local primary school and day nursery and the nearest secondary school is the well renowned and sought after William Farr, which is only 3 miles away in Welton. This is such a well-served village with a Co-op, very good doctors’ surgery, a pub, a paper shop, and so on. Our closest big supermarket is Waitrose which is a 10-minute drive into town but we have a really handy convenience store a short walk away. Perhaps more importantly, it is only a 10-minute drive to Lincoln’s cathedral, castle and Bailgate area with its lovely boutique shops and restaurants”
Location
Trenchard Square is in a quiet residential area of the RAF base of Scampton, with properties being sold off to private individuals a number of years ago. It is within very easy reach of the A15, about 5 miles (10 minutes’ drive) directly north of the city of Lincoln with its cathedral, castle and quaint Bailgate area where charming markets, independent shops, restaurants and cafes nestle on the hill.
Newark-on-Trent with its castle on the river, is about 20 miles (approx. 30 mins) southwest with Nottingham further beyond (about an hours’ drive). The Lincolnshire Wolds, designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with its rolling hills, is beyond Market Rasen (13 miles) less than a half hour drive to the northeast. The A1 Northbound can be picked up at Markham Moor about 20 miles (30 mins) to the west, or at Newark, the same distance, if Southbound. The M180 crosses the north of the county about 18 miles (20 mins) up the A15.
The schools in the close vicinity are excellent. Polly Platt Primary School, about a 5-minute walk, is rated Good by Ofsted, and the mixed state secondary school, William Farr, is in the neighbouring village of Welton only a 5-minute drive (3 miles) and is Ofsted-rated Outstanding. For private education, the superb Minster Schools in Lincoln are about 10 minutes by car (5 miles).<br /><br />
