Description

Cottage with NO IMMEDIATE NEIGHBOURS & FANTASTIC VIEWS DOWN ONTO THE FENS! This character cottage requires a comprehensive scheme of modernisation. Located on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) this property has a large plot of approximately 3/4 of an acre and includes THREE LARGE STABLES plus a tack room. The property has accommodation comprising; hallway, downstairs double bedroom, snug, lounge, kitchen and utility room, downstairs wc and two double bedrooms and bathroom to the first floor with LPG gas central heating and majority UPVC double glazing. The property sits towards the front of the plot and has front, side and rear gardens. Then there is the stable block and behind this has double gates from the lane to the side that open to a double width car parking area (space for numerous cars/larger vehicles if needed). Beyond this is the majority of the plot with trees and plants and hedging around (previously been used as a pony paddock). Across the lane is a further parcel of land (approximately 1/4 of an acre) currently overgrown but could be cultivated and landscaped for many uses eg back to paddock land/veg plots/simply to enjoy as garden and for nature. In the agent's opinion this versatile plot could be enjoyed by persons looking to keep grazing animals/ponies, space for dogs, keeping chickens etc or for a buyer to landscape back into cottage gardens or productive gardens to grow veg, fruit etc. Whoever chooses to make this their home will have a fantastic elevated position on the edge of the Wolds and be able to enjoys far reaching views across to West Keal and the beautiful Church or down onto the fens. Located with no near neighbours on the edge of the village you get a fantastic position but are also less than a mile to the East Keal village store and post office and on the main bus route from Spilsby-Boston. The Market Town of Boston is 13 miles away and the wonderful sandy beaches of the east coast 15 miles away. The Wolds is a nature lovers paradise as well as a fantastic place to enjoys walking, cycling or horse riding plus interesting historical sites. The current owners used to keep horses and the property opens onto Marden Hill which is a quiet lane that goes up into the Wolds and offers access to many further quiet lanes suitable for hacking. Old Bolingbroke is less than 2 miles from the property where the Bolingbroke castle ruins remain (Henry IV born here) and was an area of many Civil War battles between the roundheads and cavaliers centuries later (hence the ruins)! The Market Town of Spilsby is less than 3 miles away and offers plenty of services; doctors, vets, pubs/restaurants/take-aways, supermarket, schools and the Market Town of Horncastle famed for its many antique shops is only 10 miles away!
