Situation and Directions Entering the village of North Somercotes from the north on the A1031, proceed along Conisholme Road and turn right by the Axe and Cleaver public house at the crossroads, along South Road. Follow the road away from the village continue past the crossroads and take the next right turn to South Somercotes. On entering the village, Alroy is one of the first properties on the left side. The village has a variety of individual country properties and is a short drive from the larger village of North Somercotes which provides good services with a Primary and Secondary School, a number of small shops, Cafes and 2 local Pubs. There are miles of beaches and nature reserves in the area for walking or riding and a scenic fishing lake with café in North Somercotes.
The Property The bungalow is estimated to have been built about 26 years ago and appears to have brick-faced cavity walls beneath a main pitched timber roof structure covered in concrete interlocking tiles. The attached garage is a good size and has a flat roof structure. The property has an oil central heating system and double-glazed windows (with the exception of the garage). The bungalow is seated centrally on the plot with a driveway to the garage and a separate drive on the south side to the paddock – as such the building affords great potential to extend and create a good size residence with appropriate outbuildings positioned towards the land which is immediately at the rear, all subject to obtaining planning consent. Plans for one possible extension scheme have been commissioned by the sellers and can be viewed on request.

In the corner of the garage is the Worcester Bosch oil fired central heating boiler. There are lawned gardens extending around the front, side and rear of the bungalow behind privet hedges at the front and there are established shrubs and bushes to one side. A pathway leads around the side of the garage to the rear garden which has four or five established trees including birch, cherry blossom, rowan and Scots pine. There is a clothes drying area, a concrete fuel bunker, outside tap and outside light. The stepped rear boundary has timber post and rail fencing to the Grass Paddock beyond which has independent vehicular access from the road with a gate. The level paddock is mainly surrounded by dykes and mixed hedgerows.
NB the land will be the subject of an overage clause within the sale contract whereby the sellers will reserve a share of any uplift in value obtained by acquiring planning consent for new residential development within a specified number of years following completion of a sale.
