House For Sale £595,000
A charming residence set back in a secluded position in this equally attractive village, enjoying character from top to bottom with versatile living space to cater for either multi-generation living or holiday accommodation.
Description - A splendid country home with attractive character features throughout in an enviable location. Previously used as both a private home and a separate holiday let, this charming residence would equally appeal to those seeking multi-generational living whether within the main house, or by making use of the outbuildings (subject to relevant planning consents). Accommodation briefly includes two kitchens, four reception rooms, four double bedrooms, three bathrooms in the main house and an additional wet room in one of the converted outbuildings that has previously been used as an additional fifth bedroom.
Location - The village of Stragglethorpe is perfect for rural living. The area is full of historic buildings including a small church. The nearby village of Brant Broughton is situated north of the A17 approximately 12 miles south of Lincoln and 8 miles east of Newark. Amenities include: The Generous Briton public house, village shop, fire station, a busy village hall, Methodist Church, Quaker Meeting House, and the Parish Church of St Helens. Further services are located in neighbouring Navenby, Leadenham and Caythorpe.
Newark and the A1 provide superb transport links, with the nearby station providing quick and convenient access to both the North and London Kings Cross (approx 1hr10mins).
Both Lincoln and Newark are in close proximity. Dominated by one of the finest cathedrals in Europe and a recently renovated Norman Castle - home to the famous Magna Carta, it is safe to say that Lincoln is one of the most historic cities in the region. The Cathedral Quarter, at the top of the aptly named 'Steep Hill' features a mix of independent shops, cafes and restaurants along its cobbled streets, while 'downhill' Lincoln is where you will find all your favourite High Street retailers. There is also the Brayford Waterfront - home to the University, cinema, bars, cafes and restaurants, some with fabulous views over the Marina. This combination of ancient and modern urban living makes any village near Lincoln the perfect place to live.
Just along the A17 (approx. 8 miles) the charming market town of Newark-on-Trent is dotted with attractive Georgian architecture, independent stores and relaxed bistros, all centralised around a cobbled market square. Newark's fascinating heritage is ripe for exploration with enchanting historic sites such as Newark Castle where visitors can take tours, view exhibitions or enjoy a stroll through the Victorian gardens. The town enjoys family friendly attractions such as a state-of-the-art cinema, a popular museum, art gallery and the town's notable Palace Theatre. There is a handful of interesting independent stores in Newark town centre and a number of large supermarkets also close by. Newark Markets are also popular among locals and visitors alike, offering fresh organic produce, locally-caught fish and artisan gifts. There are also a good range of antique shops and a large Waitrose.
Schools - There is a convenient primary school in the nearby village of Brant Broughton which benefits from a 'Good' Ofsted rating and offers pre-school and after school clubs.
Lincoln Minster, The Priory and Carre's Grammar in Sleaford as well as The Kings' School and Kesteven & Grantham Girls' School in near-by Grantham are in close proximity. Kesteven and Sleaford High is a selective academy for girls. Nearby Newark offers several Primary, Secondary and 6th Form establishments as well as two secondary education academies.
Outside - The property is approached through one of two gated driveways with private parking for multiple vehicles. The gardens offer a plethora of flower beds, trees, perennials and lawns. There are two vegetable gardens, together with a water feature and a pagoda off the dining kitchen, providing an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining.
The period outbuildings are particularly appealing, currently allowing both owners to cater for two separate hobbies. The larger outbuilding is considered particularly suitable for further conversion, subject to planning.
Services - The property is centrally heated (oil) with mains electricity, water and drainage. Photovoltaic panels are installed which is complimented by a self-storage battery, reducing the running costs to a minimum.
Energy Performance - Rating: E
Council Tax - Band: E
Method Of Sale - The property is offered for sale by Private Treaty.
