Description - Tucked away down a quiet lane in this attractive rural village, this beautiful home has been meticulously maintained and updated in recent years by the current owners to create an extended character property with period features and ample space for living and entertaining, particularly with some of the finest landscaped gardens externally. Accommodation briefly includes an open-plan kitchen diner, lounge and additional garden room, utility, four bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an ensuite to the master.
Outside - The property is approached onto a spacious gravelled driveway with concealed lighting and direct vehicular access. There are side gates to both sides of the house. The rear gardens are particularly of merit, each having a different fenced section. The top garden has numerous seating areas, both covered with a pagoda and a separate paved entertaining area with dedicated BBQ area. The side garden behind the garage accommodates space for a hot tub and also has two pedestrian doors, one into the garage and the other providing a separate office away from the principal dwelling. The next garden down is principally laid to lawn and accommodates a grill cabin (available by separate negotiation). The far garden is completely enclosed and is ideal for chickens, dog run or similar.
Location - Foston is a small village some 6 miles north of Grantham just off the A1. It is also 7 miles south of Newark and 18 miles east of Nottingham. Nearby Long Bennington boasts many amenities including local shopping facilities, quaint cafe, a popular Primary School (rated 'Good' by Ofsted) and an excellent doctors surgery. Leisure facilities include a bowling green and tennis courts.
Grantham is well-regarded for the quality of its local schools, which regularly achieve some of the best academic results in the area. Both community and independent schools are available for children of all ages, and the town's two grammar schools, Kesteven and Grantham Girls School and The King's Grammar School, are in particularly high demand.
The town itself benefits from a fast and reliable rail service into London Kings Cross (1 hour). It has its own multiplex cinema and already benefits from an arts centre and theatre, along with an excellent leisure centre with facilities for swimming, fitness training and racquet sports. Nearby, the 17th Century Belton House offers beautiful grounds, as well as being home to the superb Belton Park Golf Club where visitors and members are offered 27 challenging holes. Neighbouring Belton Woods also has three golf courses on offer, as well as leisure facilities and spa. Local residents will delight in the charming selection of tea rooms, cafés, restaurants and traditional inn-keeper style pubs, typical of a vibrant market town such as this one. The shopping centre provides an intriguing mix of independent stores and family-run boutiques, alongside several major high street names and a good range of supermarkets. A designer shopping village is currently under construction.
