The Georgian Market Town of Stamford was England’s first Conservation Area. It is an active and vibrant town, within which there is good provision for both state and private education for all age groups. The town’s railway station has hourly services to Peterborough and Cambridge on the Midlands Cross Country Birmingham to Stansted Airport line. Further afield, Rutland Water is 6 miles to the south-west, at Empingham, with a myriad of sailing and leisure opportunities. The Property A deceptively spacious and unlisted dwelling on the edge of the Conservation Village of Little Casterton 2 miles north of Stamford. The property was converted from a large farm granary building in the 1970s as part of an award winning development. With uninterrupted farmland views the property makes a charming home with a lovely feel. Owned by the current vendor for over 15 years, the dwelling has been upgraded and reconfigured in part, with an enlarged principal bedroom suite that incorporates what is potentially a fourth bedroom. It offers well-presented and elegant accommodation with delightful views over a private well stocked south-west facing garden. Set back from the village’s lane, the initially shared gravelled driveway leads to private parking and a detached double garage at the subject house, with a discreet entrance. Much loved as a principal home, the property would also lend itself as a second/holiday home or investment dwelling. Accommodation The front door opens into a wide stairwell entrance hallway, which accesses all the ground floor rooms. The sitting room is a full width dual aspect room, with windows to the front and French doors to a conservatory and the garden beyond. The elegant room has a wood burning stove together with fitted bookcases. Doors from the sitting room, or hallway, connect into the dining room, with solid wood flooring and from which a large bay-window offers views of the garden. The two reception rooms offer great entertaining space. The kitchen is well-appointed with a modern contemporary suite and ceramic tiled floor which has an underfloor heated mat. An extensive range of wall and base units lie beneath Corian worktops with an induction hob and inset basin with mixer. A bank of almost full height walnut fronted larder cupboards offer further storage, with integrated oven and microwave, whilst an external door offers access directly to the garden. A separate utility room and cloaks/WC complete the ground floor accommodation. At first floor level, the original bedroom layout has been configured to provide a three room principal suite, which is accordingly impressively propotioned. The option to provide a 4th bedroom remains. Entered to a library dressing area, the ensuite shower room is well-appointed, with a walk in wardrobe, whilst the bedroom itself has a large bay window with fine views. Bedroom two is a generous double and bedroom three is currently presented as an office. They are served by the family bathroom. Outside The property is approached to its double garage and parking, to the side of which a side passage leads to the front door through a courtyard garden. The rear garden is accessed from the house, through the conservatory or kitchen, via a passageway to the right of the house linking front and rear gardens. The front and rear garden were designed by a local landscape designer who has since won multiple Chelsea gold medals. The south-west facing rear garden is stocked with mature flowering and rose borders framing the lawns, with mature fruit trees and a productive kitchen garden. A terrace adjoins the house, whilst the garden boundaries are well screened, ensuring a good degree of privacy. General Information Services: Mains electricity, water and drainage are connected.
