Manthorpe Road, Grantham, Lincolnshire NG31

A beautifully presented renovated family home with walled gardens and parking.

Description
An attractive west facing double fronted late 18th century Georgian house in a fabulous setting on the edge of Grantham’s Conservation Area, overlooking Manthorpe Park with its parkland, tennis courts and green spaces.

With a private walled garden, the grade II listed home has been subjected to a full and sympathetic refurbishment over the past five years. The works have included replacement of the front two bay windows and refurbishment of sash windows together with approved internal and external alterations including full electrical rewiring and plumbing and heating.

The refurbished property offers well-appointed accommodation over three floors. With fabulous period detailing, proportions and symmetry, this is a wonderful family home. The front door opens into a clay tiled entrance hallway, flanked by the dining and drawing rooms, each with high ceilings and wide bay windows, together with fireplaces, one marbled and the other housing a wood burning stove.

The hallway passes the main staircase to a rear stairwell hall, with garden access, utility and ground floor shower room, which also connects to the versatile breakfast room, also an ideal play room for those with small children, again with checkerboard clay tiled flooring and partially panelled walls, beyond which is the kitchen.

The kitchen is fitted with a bespoke suite with shaker style units beneath Quartz worktops, incorporating a Belling 7 Hob duel oven, duel fuel Range and integrated dishwasher and drinks fridge, whilst the adjoining utility has a Belfast style sink and integrated washing machine, fridge/freezer and tumble drier appliances. Both kitchen and utility have external doors to the garden.

There are five fabulously proportioned double bedrooms at first and second floor level, served by two well-appointed family bathrooms, with showers over their baths. The three principal bedrooms, the two family bathrooms and an additional cloakroom/WC, are accessed from the secondary staircase and landing, which rises from the rear hall. The first floor is served by two staircases. The principal, second and third bedroom, at first floor, and bedrooms four and five, at second floor, are also accessed by the principal staircase which rises from the front hallway. Bedroom two has fitted wardrobes, and bedrooms three, four and five built-in wardrobes.
