It’s a really peaceful and quiet home – great for entertaining and family life. My grandparents originally built the house in the late 1930s and it’s been handed down through the generations. The property has been well cared for – retaining many of the original features. Three of the bedrooms have period fireplaces and there are other historic elements such as the glass tiles in the bathroom and a dovecote in the garden. So, the house is full of character, coupled with contemporary touches.”“The reception rooms downstairs are all exceptionally light and airy. There’s lots of space and a communal feel – which is great for family get-togethers and entertaining.” “The bedrooms all have wonderful views of the gardens and countryside. From the smallest bedroom, you get spectacular views in the morning as the sun rises and you can often see deer roaming around in the distance.”“The house was designed for countryside living. So, you have the area with the boiler room and ‘garden’ loo. This is handy when you’re coming in from a country walk or gardening – as it’s somewhere to store wet coats and muddy boots.” “In the summer, the gardens are wonderful for entertaining, playing football or just chilling out and enjoying the spectacular views. You can almost get lost in the grounds. The patio area is very pretty and a real suntrap in the summer. The gardens have an extensive range of fruit trees, including apples, pears, plums, greengages, raspberries, blackcurrants, and redcurrants.” “The colours in the garden are spectacular in the spring and summer. We have several varieties of rhododendrons around the property, as well as wisteria, beautiful lime trees and a stunning Oak tree. There are several outbuildings and sheds in the gardens – which are great for storage. The garden shed has double glazing and a storage heater, so it could be adapted for various uses. There’s also a garden office with a wood burner.” “You have a lot of privacy and seclusion around the property. Eaton and the surrounding villages are very friendly, with a good mix of people who’ve lived here for a long time and newcomers.”“You’re close to the larger towns of Grantham and Stamford. The Engine Yard, which is three miles away, has independent shops and a café. You’re also close to Stamford, which has a much wider range of shops and other amenities. There are lots of great country pubs locally.” “For commuters, there are good road links to major cities such as Nottingham and Leicester. You can also get direct trains to London from Grantham in just over an hour.”Key Features:• A stunning country home built in 1939 with a wealth of period features • Two acres of gardens and grounds • Secluded location in a tranquil rural setting • Large entrance hall with downstairs WC • Solid oak flooring in the main reception areas • A spacious and light living room with a mixed-fuel burner • Separate dining room with double doors to the study • Conservatory-style study with fine garden views • A heart-of-the-home kitchen with ample low-level and high-level units • Integrated appliances include a Rangemaster oven, fridge-freezer and integrated dishwasher • Large pantry with original 1930s tiled shelving • Handy boiler room, workshop and ‘garden’ WC in a courtyard wing • Utility room features fitted shelving and space for appliances • Large first-floor landing with views across the gardens • Four generously sized bedrooms with glorious garden and countryside views • Charming balcony extends from bedroom 2 – perfect for a morning coffee • Three bedrooms feature original fireplaces • Spacious family bathroom with original glass wall tiles and on-trend checkerboard flooring • Large floor-to-ceiling airing cupboard for storing towels • Extensive mature gardens that wrap around the house • Formal gardens include an array of fruit trees, rhododendrons, a flower garden and a gorgeous Oak tree • Several outbuildings, including a converted 1940s air raid shelter • Office in the garden with a log burner • Garden shed that is double-glazed and could be adapted for different uses • Small stores used for potting and garden tools • A period dovecote • Sweeping gravel drive with a double garage to the side of the house • Double garage includes a lockable workshopLocationSituated in the northeast corner of Leicestershire close to Melton Mowbray (8 miles) and Grantham (11 miles), Eaton is a charming hillside village comprising largely of traditional houses and cottages.

Desford LE9Desford is a village situated in the south-west of Leicestershire, benefitting from all the merits of its countryside location while also being close to motorway and rail networks that crisscross this east Midlands region. It is only seven miles west from Leicester’s city centre, with its multi-cultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, rich retail selection and attractions such as the King Richard III exhibition. From Desford, the closest motorway links are the M1 and M69 toward Enderby. There are train stations at Rugby for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with trains running regularly from there to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMB) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Desford or ‘Deor’s Ford’ was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 but is possibly of Anglo-Saxon origin, being based on a significant hill 400 feet above sea level. St Martin’s parish church dates from the late thirteenth century and the village centre has a selection of Grade II listed buildings including a timber framed manor house and service buildings from the 1600’s. The Baptist Church on Chapel Lane was constructed in 1866. All combine to mark the centuries that have passed in Desford, including the present development of homes. The original settlement predates the Norman Conquest. In one of many Enclosure Acts of the eighteenth century the predominant farming community were forced to become invested with industrial economics and then, with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, came the railway. A railway station was built linking established lines to larger towns and cities. It was closed to passengers in 1964 and then to freight in 1984. A half winding wheel on Lindridge Lane is a permanent reminder of the era and today Caterpillar Inc. are a significant employer in the area, having repurposed the old Desford aerodrome. Today, the bustling village is part of the Harborough district of Leicestershire and is within a half hour drive of Enderby, Kirby Muxloe, Market Bosworth and Kirkby Mallory. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, (Sport in Desford Clubhouse with new Scout hut and tennis courts) education and leisure amenities. There is an array of shops, a library, cafes, a pharmacy and parks. Public houses include The Lancaster close to the old railway station and the Bluebell Inn in the village centre.

Its rich history includes associations with RAF Graveley Airfield during the Second World War, and the grounds have long played host to the much-loved village fête, often accompanied by nostalgic RAF flypasts.Offord D'Arcy itself offers a quintessential village lifestyle, complete with a welcoming public house, local shop, and equestrian facilities. The nearby village of Buckden provides additional amenities, while the market town of St Neots (less than five miles away) and the city of Cambridge (approximately 20 miles) offer a comprehensive range of shopping, dining, and excellent rail connections into London.For families, Offord Primary School is within easy walking distance, with well-regarded secondary options including Longsands Academy in St Neots and Hinchingbrooke School in Huntingdon. A number of highly regarded independent schools are also accessible, including Kimbolton School.Seller Insight When we first found The Limes, we knew it offered something special: a wonderful sense of space and calm, while still being brilliantly practical for everyday life. With both Huntingdon and St Neots stations within easy reach, it was the ideal base for commuting to London, and for more than 30 years it has been a home that has truly grown with us. An historic former rectory, once used as a children's home during the war, this is a home that was full of character and memories before we even arrived, and we have loved adding our own memories to its story.One of the things we needed from the outset was flexibility, and having two large en suite bedrooms made it perfect when we moved here with my parents in tow. The house has always felt welcoming and generous, with rooms that flow beautifully. We added a skylight on the landing to bring in even more natural light, replaced the kitchen, and updated the garden room, which has become a favourite spot to sit and enjoy the view.The living room is particularly lovely, especially in winter, with the wood burner creating a warm, cosy atmosphere. The dining room has hosted countless family celebrations and is perfectly designed for Christmas gatherings. And there is nothing quite like waking up in the bedroom to views of trees in summer and autumn or looking straight out to open fields beyond when the branches are bare in winter and early spring.The generous garden has been transformed during our time here, and truly feels like having our own private park. We have planted trees and shrubs, created a pond, and shaped parts of it into a haven for wildlife, badgers, deer, foxes and rabbits are all regular visitors. With two patios and plenty of space for barbecues and al fresco entertaining, it has also been fabulous for parties, from weddings to camping and even the church fête.The village itself is incredibly friendly, with a primary school, shop, and an active village hall hosting everything from WI, gardening club and bowls to mums and babies groups. There are wonderful walks across the fields, along the river and towards the nearby nature reserve.Agents Notes Tenure: Freehold Year Built: circa 1860 EPC: D Local Authority: Huntingdonshire Council Tax Band: EIMPORTANT NOTE TO PURCHASERS: We endeavour to make our sales particulars accurate and reliable, however, they do not constitute or form part of an offer or any contract and none is to be relied upon as statements of representation or fact.
