The property has traditionally styled uPVC double-glazed, multi-pane effect sash windows with an inward tilting mechanism for cleaning of the exterior panes from inside the house. The accommodation has an oil-fired central heating system providing underfloor zoned heating to the ground floor rooms with digital wall controllers and separately zoned first floor column style radiators. Hot water is provided by an unvented high-pressure system with immersion heater back-up and there is a whole house water softener, with hard drinking water to the cold taps in the kitchen and utility room..
The family bathroom and two ensuite shower rooms each have electric underfloor heating with digital control and the ensuites are fitted with Lusso Stone furniture.

Ethernet wiring is in place for internet connection to the TV points with sockets in place for high level wall placement and there is an alarm system which is controllable from the ground and first floors.

Brass-coloured sockets, switches and dimmer controls for multiple lighting combinations including rebated LED downlighters, concealed spotlights, LED strip lighting, wall lights, table lamp sockets and pendants. The floor surfaces include luxurious deep carpeting, extensive limestone to the ground floor, Calacatta marble floor and wall tiling in the family bathroom, parquet style LVT in the study and ceramic floor tiles to the ensuites.

A more detailed account of the accommodation is provided after the photo schedule which follows.
Location The house is positioned in a mature village setting with rear garden enjoying a backdrop of mature trees and a period house beyond. The popular rural village of Covenham is separated into two areas corresponding to the Grade II Listed churches of St. Bartholomew and St. Mary, the latter located to the south and all set in an area of attractive countryside just to the east of the Lincolnshire Wolds.
The village is positioned away from the A16 road though within easy reach and thereby ideal for commuting to the market town of Louth, approximately five miles to the south, or the large business centre of Grimsby which is about 11 miles to the north. The Humberside Airport is approximately 22 miles away. To the north of the village is the Covenham Reservoir which appeals to walkers and provides a venue for sailing and other watersports.
Louth is a bustling market town with a range of individual shops, three markets each week and secondary schools/academies, each with specialist status to include the King Edward VI grammar school. The town has a golf course, cinema, theatre, many clubs and societies, attractive parks, a recently completed sports and swimming complex and the Kenwick Park leisure centre on the outskirts. There are many restaurants, cafes and bars and an interesting Conservation Area.
