Secluded on a very private plot, tucked away behind high hedges and looking out over a neighbouring grass paddock, this beautiful, character home successfully incorporates modern living in a character residence, giving the discerning buyer the best of both worlds. Accommodation briefly includes a contemporary, open-plan kitchen diner, a lounge with a log-burner, a large garden room, a dedicated home office, four bedrooms upstairs, together with two bathrooms including an ensuite to the master.

OUTSIDE

The property is approached onto a paved, private driveway with parking for multiple vehicles. A side gate leads through to a beautiful garden which is predominantly laid to lawn and complimented by high hedges, flower beds, shrubs and perennials.

A back gate leads out onto a rear pathway.

Dominated by one of the finest cathedrals in Europe and a recently renovated Norman Castle, home to the famous Magna Carta, the nearby City of Lincoln is one of the most historic cities in the country.
