Set in enchanting and mature grounds of around 2 acres, hidden from the outside world, in an idyllic spot in the heart of Lord Tennyson country in the Lincolnshire Wolds.Seller Insights“‘Non sibi solum’ is the motto carved on one of the front walls of The Old Rectory and it is the perfect house for entertaining family and friend for parties, festive gatherings or quiet house party weekends.”“The house was designed and built in 1854 by S S Tuelon, a Victorian architect renowned for building rectories and churches in and around London and a number in Lincolnshire with a liking for the Gothic Revival style and use of multi-coloured bricks.” “The large reception hall, the four public rooms as well as the bespoke Vale conservatory and the large garden permit guests to mingle and be sociable or find peaceful solitude.”“I love to entertain and in winter have enjoyed serving pre-dinner drinks in the main reception hall or the drawing room then moving into the dining room for a formal meal. I have had roaring fires in all the rooms, even in the hall for a lovely warm welcome.”“A marvellous spacious property for a family, the garden provides loads of hidden dens for children as well as a mini maze to the side of the house, and is perfect for multigenerational living with the two bedroom coach house in the grounds.”“The wonderful inviting conservatory brings the garden inside. It is the perfect spot to watch the plethora of wildlife from hedgehogs, owls and boxing hares to the amazing variety of birds; at present we seem to have a resident pheasant. At Christmas, sitting round a large table makes for a magical experience.”“The dual zone central heating system is very convenient as you can choose to have the ground floor on but not the upstairs. The conservatory has underfloor heating but I’ve never had to put it on even though I use it all year round.”“The garden is just magic. In late winter and early spring we go from carpets of snowdrops to nodding heads of many varieties of daffodils to bluebells and hyacinths then the magnolias through to the lilacs, and in summer, onto roses and hydrangeas - there is always something flowering. The large pond is naturally fed with a small waterfall at one end. It is full of pond life and visited by mating mallards, moorhens and other water birds. There are several seating areas within the whole of the garden, ideal if you want to chill out, sketch or read a book or listen to the birds singing. One of them, the pavilion, means you can sit out even if it is raining.”“There is enough space in the grounds to fence off areas for grazing if someone wanted to have a horse or some ponies; there is still the old stabling in the coach house, or other outbuildings could be used for this purpose.”“Great potential is offered here for further development. You could have an outside office or studio for instance, or convert the garage building into more self-contained accommodation *error*; there are so many options.”“The improvements I have made include adding the aluminium greenhouse with self-regulating roof vents and fitting bespoke solid light oak shelving in the reading room/library, a room for quiet contemplation. Outside, I have doubled the size of the orchard so it now provides apples, pears, plums, damsons, medlars and crab apples. The crab apple and mint jelly last year was absolutely delicious. I also installed the large iron gates at the entrance which involved raising the height of the piers using reclaimed handmade Victorian bricks, I reinstated the original steps in the south lawn having discovered they were there in Victorian times - incidentally, the lawn overlooked by the dining room was a tennis court then - and I have put a proper pulley on the old well although it has a grid across the top for safety.”“Four lights at the entrance to the property grounds on the bridge come on automatically as light is fading and go off around 11pm; they are on an adjustable timer.”“There is a handy letter box within a stone’s throw of the main front gate. From here there is a footpath that leads to Aswardby across fields if you want to walk your dog, and after a winter walk, a welcoming afternoon tea is held in the reception hall.”“I adore this place and wish I could pick it up and take it with me. I thought it was to be my forever home but it is not to be so I am reluctantly having to hand it on to someone who I hope will love and cherish it and continue with the custodial care that I have given it.”• Grade II listed, former rectory designed by renowned architect S.S.
