6 bed detached house for sale

Main Street, Scopwick, Lincoln LN4

A handsome and prominent residence, enjoying character elevations while built to modern construction standards to create a warm and elegant home with enviable views to the rear.

Introduction

Offering the discerning buyer the best of both worlds; traditional stone elevations giving a character feel, yet built in recent years to create a more energy efficient home with underfloor heating on both floors. The property was built by the current owners and has never been offered for sale before. There is air conditioning and air source installed to heat the and cool the house, with beautifully landscaped grounds and living space above the garage as well. The accommodation briefly includes a large kitchen diner that flows straight through to light and airy garden room that looks out over the unspoilt views to the rear, complimented by both a formal lounge and a smaller family room, the former benefitting from a log-burner. There is also a large home office on the ground floor, although the sixth bedroom above the garage would similarly suit an additional office space as well. Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms and four bathrooms, including three ensuites.

Location

The village of Scopwick is highly desirable not only due to the attractive local properties, but also due to the ease of access to major transport hubs and local towns and cities. The Royal Oak, just a short walk from the property, offers a welcome hub to the village with good food and plenty of choice for both beer and wine drinks alike, sometimes with live entertainment.

The Cathedral City of Lincoln is located a mere 10 miles north and is internationally renowned for the 11th-century castle and Medieval Cathedral, as well as its charming architecture. The Museum of Lincolnshire Life and the Collection, which houses archaeological exhibits and art, are both popular attractions, together of course with Lincoln Castle, with its superb fortified walls and open grounds, accommodating the famous Magna Carta. The Bailgate area of 'Up-Hill' Lincoln offers a plethora of boutique and independent shopping and eateries.

The nearby towns of Newark and Grantham provide excellent travel connections to London, with travel times of around an hour. The A46, A15 and A1 trunk roads provide easy access in all directions. Sleaford is also conveniently located just south of village.
