An impressive seven-bedroom detached house with potential for modernisation and extensive gardens, in a peaceful Lincolnshire village setting.
Description
The property is an impressive, detached house, providing over 5,000 sq. ft of versatile, light-filled living space. The property is an exceptional former Station Commanders house for RAF Hemswell built in 1939, it has elegant details including ceiling roses and decorative cornicing, while some areas would benefit from modernisation.
The ground floor provides six comfortable, spacious reception rooms in which to relax or entertain. These include the sitting room with its fireplace and large bay window welcoming plenty of natural light, the formal dining room, a study for home working, a breakfast room or play room and a sun room with French doors opening on to the garden, above the sun room is a large powered attic space. There is also a approx. 30ft conservatory providing views across the garden, as well as French doors opening directly to the rear lawn. Across the front of the ground floor, the kitchen has fitted units to base and wall level, as well as a range cooker, while the large utility room and the boiler room provide further space for appliances and home storage.
The first floor features four bedrooms, all overlooking the rear garden. The generous principal bedroom includes an en suite with a freestanding bathtub and a separate shower. This level also offers a potential area for home working, a store, and a family bathroom. On the second floor, there are three additional bedrooms with dormer windows overlooking the gardens, plus a bathroom with bath.
At the front of the property there is an in/out driveway, which wraps around a front lawn with a central ornamental pond. There is ample parking space at the front, as well as access to a single garage. At the rear, the garden includes a generous expanse of lawn, fruit trees, a patio area for al fresco dining, a large ornamental Japanese pond and borders of high hedgerow and mature trees. The grounds also include a kennels block with six kennels, as well as two stables.
Location
The small Lincolnshire village of Hemswell Cliff is set in a rural position, well-connected by local A-roads yet surrounded by peaceful countryside. Formerly the site of an RAF airfield, the village has various everyday amenities including a coffee shop and a primary school, while further amenities and activities can be found in nearby Glentham (approx. 3.8 miles), with its local pub and village hall.
The market town of Gainsborough, approx. nine miles away, provides several everyday amenities, including a broad selection of shops, supermarkets, and a twice-weekly market. The town also provides primary and a state secondary schools. Leisure facilities in Gainsborough include a leisure centre and golf at Thonock Park.
The area is connected by road, with the A15 providing access to Lincoln, while the wider network of A-roads provides routes towards Grimsby and Scunthorpe. Rail services can be accessed in Gainsborough and Lincoln.
