Detailed Description

Seller Insight

We wanted to bring The Old Rectory back to life to create a dwelling fit for modern living whilst creating a house we would be delighted to live in ourselves. This meant stripping it back to bare brick and starting again, there isn't a part of the house that hasn't been touched. New window lintels were fitted throughout, extension was added, the house was reroofed, and the existing building was repointed. Flush sash windows were fitted along with aluminium front, rear and bifold doors. Throughout this process the work was observed and signed off by a building inspector ensuring it met modern standards.

Internally the house was reconfigured to create practical spaces and maximise storage. We wanted to ensure the layout could be easily adapted or modified to any potential owners' preferences.

The house was rewired, replumed, replastered and new woodwork fitted throughout. We wanted to ensure the kitchen area was the focal hub of the house to entertain. Quality appliances such as hot water tap, large wine fridge, two ovens, microwave combi oven, warming draw, full length fridge and freezers, built in bins and quartz worktops were fitted.

Five bedrooms and three bathrooms occupy the upstairs space which can used in various ways to ensure it can meet different needs. We personally really like the space at the top of the stairs with the views looking over the countryside.

The property sits on a large plot which provides parking for numerous vehicles without compromising space, something you don't generally see elsewhere. The sandstone patio and rear garden offer lots of space and scope for a family or those that are more green fingered.

The location is superb for someone wanting a village lifestyle enjoying country walks yet has the benefit of being within 5 miles of Lincoln with very good schools but also fast train services to London and elsewhere. We have a newly refurbished pub in the village- The Chequers, along with Hanworth country park and café which is a short walk across the front field. There is local farm shop and co-op within 2.5 miles and the local primary school is short walk away.

We put our heart and souls in refurbishing and extending the Old Rectory and didn't cut any corners to ensure the quality of the finish. We hope you agree.
