A well-presented, substantial, modern, 4 bedroom home stands set back from the road with a generous, wraparound garden. With an integrated double garage, a separate brick-built outbuilding and three pairs of French doors from the house opening onto an expansive, south facing terrace, the property provides plenty of space both inside and out.

The location is around 5 miles to the southwest of the centre of the historic city of Lincoln. Part of South Hykeham, in a continuation of the urban development adjoining well served North Hykeham, catchment schools are excellent as well as road and rail links; for instance, the A46 is very close by, and train stations are at North Hykeham, Newark and in Lincoln.

“It’s been a great home that I’ve lived in for over 30 years. It was built in 1988 and has a date stone to mark this; it was only 2 years old when we came here. I have always loved the feeling of space and light, particularly as you walk into the hall with its lovely staircase or arrive on the spacious, half-galleried landing upstairs.”

“I’ve loved the location as you are so close to the A46 which will take you straight to Newark to catch a train and be in central London in an hour and a half. There are shops and a take-away very nearby and a doctors’ at the end of the road. The Wi-Fi is good too with superfast broadband.”

“It’s a very solid, well-built property with hardwood windows and a lot of the carpentry inside is bespoke by a reputable local firm. They made and fitted all the pine wardrobes and created the newel posts on the staircase. The patio doors are however, look-alike timber uPvc, but all the internal doors are solid, panelled hardwood.”

“It’s been a great party house as there is so much room for everyone inside and the garden is so large it will take a lot of people. We’ve had a big marquee on the lawn and we have had many a garden party including boules and garden volleyball, even cricket. There’s so much space for parking; the drive itself will take 6 or 7 but cars can park on the lawn if necessary.”

“We may be on quite a main road, but the house is very well set back and pretty solid so it is remarkably quiet both inside the house and at the back; people often comment on that. It’s also really private. We are not overlooked at all and the whole of the garden is sunny all day long. Behind the property is a 2 acre wood which is an excellent place for walking dogs and it has lots of wildlife.”

“The brick outbuilding at the back compliments the house perfectly; built in the same style, the same brick and the same roof tiles. We have used it for storage but it has power and could be turned into anything you want really and would certainly make a good home office with the addition of a window.”

Location

The property is situated on the road from Newark to Lincoln quite close to North Hykeham, with the village of South Hykeham about a mile to the southeast. The village is set in open countryside and has an equestrian feel, consequently there are plenty of lovely walks along bridleways.

The property is very close to the A46 for good road links, with the A1 South less than 10 minutes away at Newark, or if northbound, it is about half an hour's drive to pick it up at Markham Moor. There are frequent bus services into both Lincoln and Newark.
