Stunning Period Country Home in Leverington

Nestled on the outskirts of Wisbech in Leverington, this exquisite period country home is set on a magical 1.25 acre plot, offering an unparalleled blend of modern comfort and original charm.

As you arrive via double gates leading to the private driveway, you are welcomed into a sanctuary of tranquillity and natural beauty.

Enchanting Garden Paradise

The gardens are a wildlife paradise, home to a diverse array of creatures including rabbits, muntjac deer, squirrels, hedgehogs, foxes, woodpeckers, birds of prey, ducks, and even owls. The pond, a haven for frogs, newts, dragonflies and occasional herons, features a new filtration system and natural vegetation, ensuring it remains low maintenance and visually appealing. Thoughtfully shelved with standing stones, the pond provides safe drinking spots for wildlife and insects, particularly bees.

Tree stumps strategically left around the garden attract beetles, particularly stag beetles, whilst two compost areas encourage insect activity, enhancing the garden's biodiversity. The garden has also previously had approved planning permission (F/YR14/0202/O) for two additional dwellings, offering future development potential subject to planning.
