House with garden and terrace East Heckington (United Kingdom)

A splendid unlisted Victorian former grange, peacefully positioned within approximately two acres (STS) of private, mature grounds. Elm Grange presents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished period home, rich in original features, offering exceptional living space, versatile ancillary accommodation, and truly captivating gardens. Immaculately presented throughout, Elm Grange offers over 3,500 sq. ft. of light filled accommodation, perfectly suited for both family living and formal entertaining. Of particular note is the breakfast kitchen, opening into a spectacular 25-foot double-height glass atrium with views across the formal gardens. Additional living spaces include a dining room with huge bay window, elegant lounge, study, and music room. Upstairs, the principal suite features a luxurious en-suite bathroom, walk-in wardrobe, and a large dressing room which can also serve as a fifth bedroom. Three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor. Complementing the main house is Treetops, a detached brick-built, larch-clad building (1271 sq.ft.) with a double carport, garage, and log store below, and a 22-foot open-plan living area above with kitchenette, bedroom space, and en-suite. Ideal for guests, extended family, or holiday rental use The grounds are beautifully landscaped with an impressive variety of mature trees, expansive lawns, formal borders, secret gardens, clipped box hedging walkways and a generous flagstone terrace with an arbour adorned with scented climbers. East Heckington is a picturesque rural village with convenient access to amenities, towns and transport links. The large village of Heckington is less than five minutes down the road and has much to offer in the way of shops, leisure activities and a train station which connects to Grantham, Peterborough, Nottingham, Lincoln and cities elsewhere. Road links are good too being near the A17, the A52 and the A15. Grantham and the A1 are reached in about 30 minutes by car. Seller Insights After an extensive search, we arrived at Elm Grange and it quite simply took our breath away. From the moment we stepped inside, we knew we had discovered something truly special. I think what makes Elm Grange so special is that it is both a superb home to entertain in and also incredibly homely, we use all the rooms year round and whether hosting informal gatherings or larger celebrations, the house adapts beautifully to the occasion, offering both scale and intimacy as needed. The house offers exceptional space and light throughout and is set on a gentle elevation so benefits from an subtle split-level design that adds both interest and a sense of privacy within the layout. The house is very special at Christmas, visitors are welcomed through the entrance hall into the formal dining room with the log burning roaring and thanks to the huge bay window can enjoy the beautiful garden view. The kitchen with the spectacular glass atrium connected to it is very much the heart of our home and is a really versatile space, equally suited to relaxed family living and elegant entertaining. Believed to date back to circa 1845, Elm Grange is as beautiful outside as it is inside and the tranquillity of the grounds have been one of the home's most cherished qualities. The gardens offer so many peaceful spots, with secret gardens, sunny terraces and bluebell woods we are truly spoilt for choice. The vast lawn stretching out to the south east has also been used as a helipad but we have simply loved this area to walk our dogs around. The remarkable variety of mature trees throughout the grounds is a legacy of the previous owner, a passionate birdwatcher who carefully planted numerous different species specifically to attract birdlife. It is truly extraordinary that a garden of this age presents with such maturity and depth of character. Among the many notable specimens are Douglas Firs, Atlantic Cedars, Monterey Pines, Tulip Trees, Ginkgo, Handkerchief Trees, Sweet Chestnut, and Monkey Puzzle — all contributing to a rich, layered landscape. The result is not only visually impressive, but also a haven for wildlife, with birdsong heard throughout the year — a true reflection of the garden's success. Elm Grange was extensively renovated approximately 20 years ago, preserving its period charm while modernising key aspects of the property. Over the past few years we have continued to enhance the house with a series of considered upgrades, including a new boiler, updated bathrooms, and modern appliances. The most significant addition we made is Treetops, completed in 2020 — a substantial, detached outbuilding constructed in brick and clad in larch which offers open plan living to the first floor and extensive garaging to the ground floor. We have successfully operated the first floor of Treetops as an Airbnb, though it is equally well-suited for accommodating guests, extended family, or use as a self-contained home office or studio. The village of Heckington is less than five minutes down the road and has so much to offer in the way of shops and amenities with pretty much all you need. And an added bonus is the train station which connects to Grantham, Peterborough, Nottingham, Lincoln and cities elsewhere meaning commuting to London, for instance, is perfectly feasible. Road links are good too being so near the A17, the A52 and the A15. Grantham and the A1 are reached in about 30 minutes by car.

House with garden and terrace Scopwick (United Kingdom)

An exemplary conversion of a historic, Grade II Listed and award winning home with its prominent tower proudly standing overlooking the surrounding rural, Lincolnshire landscape, a reminder of a bygone era but now forming part of a spectacular and unique home affording stunning views. The former windmill sits on around 2 acres of land and the flexible accommodation inside offers 4 to 5 bedrooms. With Lincoln about 20 minutes north and Sleaford around 15 minutes south, there is a wide choice of excellent schools in the area whilst the A1 is about half an hour away, and a neighbouring village has its own train station with connections to fast services to London, Edinburgh and elsewhere. The mill was built in 1827 and had four sails. It began as a 5-storey mill but was later raised to become 6-storey, probably when it was adjoined to a steam mill in 1842. It worked until 1912 and was dismantled soon afterwards. The buildings either side no longer existed when I came here in 2002 and the tower was completely empty, open to the sky above. Old photographs show the mill with a square chimney that was even taller than the tower itself! It was since reduced greatly in height and now still exists as the chimney to our inglenook fireplace. Planning allowed building onto the footprint of the old, so we created the two wings either side of the tower and added a new porch, very similar to the original one. All the windows in the wings are timber, double-glazed sash. We wanted to keep the tower in the spirit of its original use so have created an industrial feel with exposed brick walls in the bottom half although the top floors have been insulated and lined. The round entrance hall has been laid with reclaimed timber boards in an octagonal pattern and the curving, steel-framed staircase with timber balustrading and treads was created by a local fabricator to a unique design. All the principal rooms are light, airy and spacious with all the bedrooms double and there are superb views from every floor. The vaulted ceilings in the bedrooms enhance the sense of space and the exposed timbers lend character. There are four bedrooms on the first floor but there is a good deal of flexibility in the use of rooms. For instance, a bedroom or two could be created in the tower particularly since there is a bathroom on the fourth floor. The second floor has the lovely landing stage surrounding it with two sets of French doors opening onto it. The floor above I have been using as an office. Despite the rural location, we do actually have full fibre broadband to the property so there are very fast internet speeds. We built in cabling for surround sound speakers in the main living room on the ground floor so we can enjoy it as a cinema with one of the walls becoming the screen. There are three sets of French windows onto the rear garden which is lovely in summer. A terrace stretches the whole width of the property and receives sun the majority of the day. Although rural, the village is just a quarter of a mile away where there is a pub/restaurant and Metheringham is only 3 miles away which has various shops and services including a Co-op, a post office and even a train station on the Peterborough to Lincoln line. Sleaford is our nearest town about 8 miles away where there are very good schools, and Lincoln is about a 20 minute drive. Woodhall Spa is a lovely place, only 15 minutes away and the unusual Kinema in the Woods is highly recommended, and where we always go to the cinema! Location The Windmill is just outside the village of Scopwick which is about 8 miles north of Sleaford and 11 miles south of Lincoln. In the Domesday Book of 1086 it is recorded as having a church and 6 mills, with the Old English name 'Scapeuic' meaning sheep farm. Now, it is a small rural community with Scopwick Holy Cross Church, a village hall, and a highly-rated pub, The Royal Oak, serving food. Nearby Metheringham offers a wide range of facilities including several village stores and pubs/restaurants, a fish and chip shop, a takeaway, a children's nursery, a vets' practice and a doctors' surgery. The village railway station connects directly with Lincoln, Sleaford and Peterborough. Around a 15 minute drive, is the characterful inland resort of Woodhall Spa famous for The National Golf Centre with its Hotchkin heathland course, one of the top in the world. The town also offers a wonderful selection of independent shops, tea rooms, restaurants as well as the unique Kinema in the Woods and the superb outdoor heated swimming pool at Jubilee Park. The Petwood Hotel is steeped in British history, once home to the legendary 617 'Dambusters' squadron, and provides award-winning food, afternoon tea and special events surrounded by acres of beautifully landscaped gardens. The historic and vibrant Cathedral City of Lincoln provides a comprehensive range of shopping, dining, and cultural amenities. The two most notable attractions are the spectacular 11th century Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle at the heart of the city's cultural Cathedral Quarter. The city has two universities, and the rich aviation history of Lincolnshire can be explored further at the International Bomber Command Visitor Centre. Schools The closest primary school is in Metheringham (3 miles) and is rated Good by Ofsted whilst sought after secondary schools are in Sleaford, around a 15 minute drive. These include the grammar schools Carre's Grammar School and Kesteven & Sleaford High School (for Girls), as well as St. George's Academy, all Ofsted rated Good. In Lincoln, about 11 miles north (15-20 mins), there is the Ofsted rated Outstanding LSST Priory Academy and the superb independent Minister Schools, both Prep and Senior.
