Wheelwright's House has been a much-loved family home and a total labour of love for the present owners over the last 18 years. Great care and attention to detail includes the use of traditional materials to include natural oak ledged doors, limestone and oak flooring and granite working surfaces. The considered introduction of natural light has achieved a bright and spacious layout which can only be appreciated by a full inspection. Features include a reception hall with a Morso stove, a superb vaulted 6.5 metre farmhouse kitchen, utility, separate breakfast and dining rooms, a family room/home office, superb 7.75 metre formal lounge and a studio/bedroom 6 with an en-suite wet room and kitchenette adjacent. There is a ground floor double bedroom with en-suite facilities together with four first floor bedrooms, a further en suite shower room and family bathroom. The property is set well back from the road which allows generous driveway parking leading to a large double garage. To the rear there is a large and highly private garden with comprehensive plantings and several discrete seating areas from which to enjoy the natural tranquility. To the front is a cottage garden with honeysuckle, roses, jasmine and extensive lawns.

Full profileProperty listings
The first office to be opened by founder Mark Newton in January 1999, Grantham branch offers residential property sales, rentals, mortgage advice, conveyancing referrals and property surveying.   The offices occupy three floors of a beautifully refurbished period property on Grantham’s High Street with an illuminated display of the entire property portfolio. With the largest sales team in the town, the team comprises three full time negotiators, an office-based branch manager who is always available, and a full-time accompanied viewer.  Inside, visitors find comfy armchairs and a 40” TV in the café style area. Recognised as highly professional, the sales team has been ranked Number One in the town by both For Sale Sign Analysis and Rightmove Intel for the last five years. Manager Gavin recognises that today’s buyers will become tomorrow’s sellers and the team’s focus is wholly on the customer and ensuring a new style of property experience when buying or selling through our Grantham office. There’s no 9-5 attitude for the team either, they finish when the job is done, so if the best time to touch base with a buyer or seller is 9pm, that’s what they will do.   Meet our customers “Great service from the team at Grantham. I buy, renovate and sell and Gavin at Newton Fallowell Grantham office has his finger on the pulse of the local property market.” ‎Wade Rowlett‎  “Thank you so much for selling our house on Truro Close in Grantham within a week!!!
