Description

Now available to market is this once in a lifetime chance to acquire an amazing lifestyle change or business opportunity of immense proportions, all set within a truly idyllic backdrop of rolling Lincolnshire countryside on the very outskirts of the Wolds.

A beautiful five acre plot of maturely screened garden accommodates a colossal two and a half acres of fully stocked fishing lake and separate pond that is currently utilised for private enjoyment but represents an amazing asset for those keen on fishing or wanting to establish their own club.

Expertly restored and maintained, the waters reach a maximum depth of nine feet while being stocked with a myriad of species from a variety of Carp up to 30lbs, Sturgeon up to 40lbs, Catfish up to 70lbs. Perch, Rudd, Roach, Pike, Bream, Ide and many more. Many of the larger fish have also been electronically tagged over the last three years, allowing their fishing history and weight to be tracked and recorded.

The water level is persistently managed via a pump, bore hole and overflow pipe that can remove excess water while adding additional where required, ensuring consistent water level even during drought or flood. The sprawling grounds themselves can be accessed by vehicles by one of two gates and the entirety of the lake can be travelled around.

Maintenance is further aided by access to a variety of brick built outbuildings from a sizable two storey garage to an extensive storage unit for housing heavy equipment.

The property itself is also a painstakingly restored and maintained rarity in the form of a charming detached cottage. Full of period character, it has been fully modernised internally by the current owners to produce a bright, welcoming and highly appealing family home that couldn't fail to impress.

An extended, tri-aspect lounge serves as the property's main reception room and features an exquisite feature fire place and fuel burning stove. A generous kitchen/diner elevates the property yet further thanks to the practical design and quality fitting with a central island and full range of integrated appliances. Again, the room enjoys a rich vantage of the surrounding lake and a wealth of natural light.

Accessible from the kitchen space is combination of useful rooms from the ground floor w/c, utility room and a separate storage room that can easily accommodate a larger fridge freezer or additional laundry space. The utility space has been expertly crafted as a seamless extension of the kitchen, matching it in both style and design it forms part of an overall generous, expansive and aesthetically pleasing area.

The first floor consists of three incredibly well-appointed, double bedrooms, the primary of which benefits from access to fitted dressing room with sliding door wardrobes. The open landing has previously been adapted from an older fourth bedroom and is spacious enough to be utilised as an open study or sitting area.

The luxurious family bathroom includes both corner bath and double walk in shower unit as well as basin and toilet.

The property overall is an excellently versatile and flexible home that would suit adaptation and adjustment depending on an owner's requirements. The full range of exhaustive works however will certainly offer any buyer peace of mind from the overhauled central heating system with modern boiler, fully replaced glazing and comprehensive cosmetic works have really helped to establish a cosy feel in such an idyllic setting.

This agent would highly recommend this property to any who are seeking a change of pace or those who are wanting to explore a business opportunity that would work in synergy with a love for the outdoors or even fishing itself.
