Description

Nestled within approximately 1.5 acres of private grounds in the sought-after village of East Heckington, this substantial detached residence presents a rare opportunity to create a truly special countryside home.

Enjoying a peaceful setting with open surroundings, the property offers over 2,400 sq ft of versatile accommodation. It provides an outstanding canvas for buyers looking to renovate, extend or reimagine to their own specification.

The ground floor offers generous living space including a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, multiple reception rooms ideal for entertaining and family life, a conservatory overlooking the grounds, utility room, pantry, office and an integral double garage. A ground floor bedroom adds flexibility for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and the unique addition of a sauna. A balcony further enhances the upstairs space, providing pleasant views across the gardens and surrounding land.

Importantly, the property also benefits from planning permission for a four-bedroom detached dwelling, creating exciting scope for redevelopment or the construction of a contemporary new home (subject to conditions).

The grounds are undoubtedly a key feature — extending to approximately 1.5 acres, offering privacy, mature planting and extensive potential for landscaping, leisure use or further enhancement.

Properties offering this level of space, privacy and development potential within East Heckington rarely become available. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the opportunity on offer.

Please note that an AML fee is chargeable to the buyer once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks. Once these checks have been completed, the fee cannot be refunded, even if the property purchase does not go ahead.
