5 bed detached house for sale

Main Street, Hougham, Grantham, Lincs NG32

Tucked away in a peaceful and private setting on the edge of Hougham village, this impressive five bedroom country home offers the perfect blend of rural charm, space, and versatility. Set in approximately four acres, including three acres of paddock land currently home to sheep, and a beautifully maintained one acre garden, the property is ideal for those seeking a countryside lifestyle — whether for equestrian use, smallholding, or simply space to breathe.

The main house is substantial and full of character, offering flexible family living across two floors. At its heart is a welcoming farmhouse kitchen complete with a classic oil fired 'Sandiford' range, tiled floors, and an adjoining breakfast room that's perfect for relaxed family meals. Four reception rooms, 2 with log burners, give plenty of space for every occasion, including a sitting room, dining room, family room, and a study — thoughtfully positioned away from the main living areas, making it a quiet and practical space for working from home.

A light-filled conservatory offers a peaceful place to unwind, while an entrance hall keeps the outdoors neatly contained. The majority of the ground floor is finished with either wooden or tiled flooring giving a practical and durable finish throughout.

Upstairs, a generous L-shaped landing leads to five bedrooms, four of which are comfortable doubles. The main bedroom enjoys its own ensuite, while the remaining rooms share a spacious family bathroom.

Outside, the property really shines. Alongside the paddock land and garden, complete with mature orchard, there is ample parking on the driveway and further space behind wooden gates for multiple vehicles, horseboxes or trailers, and an impressive range of outbuildings. These include a double garage, three stables, mare and foal box, currently used as a workshop, tack room and feed store, a very large barn, 2 further outbuildings, greenhouse and a field shelter.

This wonderful home offers so much more than first meets the eye — a true lifestyle property in a picturesque village setting, located in the desirable village of Hougham, just a short drive from Grantham. It provides a rare opportunity to enjoy country living with excellent access to amenities and transport links, including a school bus stop in the village, with the added bonus of being within catchment for the boys and girls Grammar Schools in Grantham.

Whether you're a horse lover, a hobby farmer, or simply dreaming of a peaceful family home with room to grow, this exceptional property must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
