Garden at Back

House For Sale £325,000
Rookery Road, Bicker PE20 3DA


Description
Having been extremely well cared for by its current vendors, this wonderful home is now available for new owners. They have lovingly maintained the property top to bottom, with tasteful décor in each room, as well as a superb rear garden that is just bursting with vibrant plant life. After over a decade of thoroughly enjoying the bungalow, the gardens, and the beautiful village that surrounds it, the owners are moving on to pastures new, presenting you with the prospect of being the happy new owners of such a fantastic property.

Bicker is a small and picturesque village that is sat in rural south Lincolnshire. Easily accessible via the A17 and A52, you're within a short driving distance of local towns Boston and Spalding. Steeped in rich history, Bicker is home to one of the oldest Public Houses in the area - which opened its doors as an Inn back in 1665. The village was once known as Bicker Haven, as even though we're set some 8 miles from the coast, it was once a Roman Era gate to the North Sea. As the centuries have passed, the sea has been closed off, and the land has dried over hundreds of years. The river has retreated to a small trickle, which is still found on its winding course through the centre of the village. It's a truly wonderful place to call home.

Tudor Lodge is located on Rookery Road, with the large and impressive house 'The Rookery' sat a few hundred yards down the lane. The property enjoys a large frontage, with large and established foliage and trees separating it from the already rather quiet roadside. The land occupying the rear of the property is predominantly made up of farmed fields, with the immediate land backing up to the gardens being a large and much enjoyed allotment - used by local residents to grow an array of flowers, fruits and vegetables. This can be seen in our stunning aerial drone shots of the home and its proximity - far reaching flat lands offer a quiet and peaceful soft edge to this excellent area of the country.

Join us now as we journey room to room though the home. We adore this property and think you will too!
