Cornfields Station Road | Langworth | LN3 5BB SELLER INSIGHT I came here about five years ago and bought Cornfields in a really bad state. It was built in the 1980s but was a repossession and was virtually uninhabitable, so I completely gutted it and started from scratch. It didn’t have central heating and floors were chipboard. I turned the adjoining garage into the new kitchen area to capture the best of the sun, and built a new separate one.” “The house is all new inside. We’ve used Farrow & Ball paint throughout, and there are built-in wardrobes in the master bedroom. It’s been a perfect place for entertaining with the huge kitchen diner with French doors onto the terrace, leading into the living room with the bi-folds so you can easily spill out into the garden. If it wasn’t for an unforeseen relocation, I would have stayed here possibly forever so I’ve installed high spec fittings.” The setting, which already has a substantial amount of post and rail fencing encircling the property, is a haven for nature. “The paddock land backs onto farmland bordered by Nettleham Beck where we have a resident heron, a visiting muntjac, and see many different birds – often egrets fly up and down the beck. We have planted a lot of silver birch, pink hawthorn, red robin, some maple, fruit trees, an oak tree, and we have some lovely David Austen roses, all thriving, and jasmine together which help conceal the oil tank enclosure.” “As there are so many acres of good grazing here, it made sense to apply for planning permission to erect a stable block and create a menage, which was granted in March 2021*. There is an option to purchase a further acre at the front along the roadside, under separate negotiation.” “There are some great villages round here; we’re always nipping down to Nettleham which has a Cop-op with a post office, a fish and chip shop, a Greek take-away, a florist and two pubs, there’s a farm shop for fresh veg nearby, and a fantastic Farm Park for children.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
