An exceptional, substantial period house set within attractive gardens in an idyllic village setting, close to the beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds.
Description
The Old Rectory is an outstanding period house offering a wealth of beautifully appointed accommodation with a host of original features. The property displays attractive brick elevations and tall sash windows, while internally there are corniced ceilings, cast-iron fireplaces and chandelier lighting.
The ground floor comprises four well-proportioned reception rooms, three of which overlook the south-facing gardens. These include a spacious dual-aspect sitting room and a formal dining room, linked by sliding double doors to create a semi open-plan layout ideal for entertaining. The lounge and dining room both feature fireplaces, while the dining room also benefits from French doors opening on to the garden. The breakfast room provides a relaxed setting for everyday dining, with a brick-built fireplace fitted with a wood burner, complemented by terracotta floor tiles continuing into the adjoining kitchen, which is fitted with wooden units and a stainless-steel range cooker. A beautifully presented library, also featuring a fireplace, with built-in storage and shelving, offers an ideal reading room or a further reception space. In total, all four reception rooms benefit from fireplaces, with wood burners situated in the breakfast room and library.
A sweeping staircase rises from the entrance hall to a galleried landing, leading to four large double bedrooms plus a home office, which could serve as a fifth bedroom if required. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room with built-in storage, while two further bedrooms include washbasins. The upper floor is served by two bathrooms, both with freestanding baths and one with a separate shower. The property also includes a utility room and a vaulted cellar with a wine store.
At the entrance to the property, a white five-bar gate opens to the gravel driveway, which leads to a parking area in front of the house and two garages, including a double garage. The beautiful gardens extend mainly to the front and side of the house and feature rolling lawns and borders of mature trees, established hedgerows and substantial shrubs for a sense of privacy and seclusion. There is also a patio area with a brick-built well, a summer house complete with a wood burner, and a vegetable garden for growing your own produce.
