Description

The Old Vicarage is a substantial stone country residence which has recently undergone full renovation, offering a modern finish combined with the original charming features.

The immaculately presented accommodation comprises an attractive entrance hall, dining room, living room, sitting room, newly fitted breakfast kitchen with feature island, large utility/boot room with separate access to the drive and garden, shower room and inner hallway leading to large Vale garden room giving access to the terrace. Stairs lead down to the basement which offers a large wine cellar and further cellars. Two separate staircases give access to the first floor, with two landings leading to five double bedrooms, three of which benefit from ensuite bathrooms and the further two are serviced by a main bathroom. The second floor gives a further two double bedrooms.

Externally, the property is approached through a gated access leading to a large driveway providing private parking for multiple vehicles. A detached two-story outbuilding gives a garage and coach house with two store rooms above. This could be converted to create separate annexe accommodation – for which planning permission has previously been granted (lapsed).

The South-facing grounds have been fully landscaped, with a mature vegetable garden, rear terrace perfect for alfresco dining and boasting a built-in Swim Spa/ Plunge Pool and a separate hot tub enjoying the open views beyond. There is a spacious lawned area which was formerly a grass tennis court.

The Old Vicarage is located on the edge of the popular village of Ancaster, offering good amenities including a primary school, butcher, grocer, post office, petrol station, public house, sports and social club and a doctors surgery. The village is superbly located between both Sleaford and Grantham, with the latter benefiting from a direct train to London (66 mins), Ancaster itself also has an active train station. The village has excellent access to main roads, including the A15, A17, A52 and A1 trunk road.

About Country & Equestrian from Moores, Country & Equestrian, East Midlands

Goodwood House Hackamore Way Oakham LE15 7FS

Country & Equestrian from Moores is headed up by Vernon Moore, the Managing Director of the Moores Group of offices, and focuses on larger village homes, equestrian properties and land. Working out of all of our offices, Vernon has a unique way of working which has appealed to our Country & Equestrian vendors and purchasers alike. With the majority of our Country & Equestrian sales being made discreetly / off market, it is a truly personalised service.

With an increasing number of buyers from London and the South looking to relocate to our area and commute back and forth to London, it is these buyers that largely take advantage of the Meet & Greet Service that we operate exclusively from our Grantham & Peterborough Train Station Offices.

Our Peterborough Office is next to Waitrose, with less than half a dozen paces for commuters stepping from the London train and our Grantham Office is similarly on the London Platform. With the increase in flexible working practices, the request for homes within easy access of both stations has increased significantly in the last few years. Coupled with the good value for money our area offers and the excellent schooling, out of area buyers are drawn to homes along the A1 corridor and by extension, the main London train line.

We meet relocating buyers from either train station and take them around properties on our books, those listed discreetly and fully. Each visiting buyer is shown any number of properties which fit their requirements, usually by Vernon.

Our Meet & Greet Service is supported by our Property road Shows. This is where we take our properties to buyers, visiting our partner agents to meet their vendors who are looking to move to our area. These partners have branches in Greater London, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire etc., and are selling for exactly the Vendors that are looking to move to our area. To include a property in our Road Shows, all we need is a front photograph and floor plan; a contract to fully market isn't always necessary to tempt these buyers to view.

Unlike some agents we do not tie our Vendors up in lengthy contracts. We only request 28 day contract terms and offer a "hands on" 24 / 7 Director's service. No two sales are ever the same and no two Vendor's requirements are ever the same; this is very much a flexible and Vendor / property specific service.

Please contact any Moores branch to be put in touch with Vernon directly.
