Sellers insight

"I've absolutely loved living here for the past 25 years. We were looking for somewhere peaceful and not overlooked – and this place has been exactly that. It’s going to be very hard to say goodbye."

“The views are just incredible – you can see for miles in all directions. Pretty much every room has its own amazing view of the countryside."
"When we first moved in, we put a lot of work into refurbishing the house and landscaping the garden and paddocks. Over the years, we’ve continued to make improvements. We recently added a downstairs shower room, which is really handy after a walk or some time in the garden – so we don’t get muddy footprints through the house!”

"The house has lots of different living spaces downstairs, with the living room, snug and sunroom. The snug is really useful – it’s perfect if you just want a little space or you want to watch something different on TV from the rest of the family! The conservatory/utility space is also great if you have dogs or you’re into gardening.”
“We’ve developed the garden from scratch and planted all the trees ourselves. There are several fruit trees, including apple, pear, and greengages, and a lovely wildlife area too.”

"The property and paddocks have so much potential – whether you’ve got horses, you’re thinking of renting out land, or even starting a business. The outhouse next to the garage could easily be turned into a home office, an annexe, or even premises for a small business, subject to planning of course."

"There are some really lovely walks right on your doorstep. It’s great if you have dogs. You can head out from the house into the nearby countryside. There’s a bridleway nearby that takes you to a beautiful nature reserve – it’s only a 10-minute walk away."

"We're right on the edge of the village, so it’s nice and quiet, but still within easy reach of local amenities. There’s a Co-op just down the road for all the essentials, and Welton is only five minutes away by car – it’s got everything from a supermarket to sports facilities. And, of course, Lincoln is just a short drive away."

“The village school is very popular and you also have William Farr secondary school just a few miles away. So, this area is brilliant for families.”• Charming three-bedroom property located in stunning countryside surroundings

Dunholme is a picturesque village in Lincolnshire, situated approximately eight miles northeast of Lincoln. First recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, Dunholme also played an important role in World War II as home to RAF Dunholme Lodge – used by Bomber Command.

The village features a 12th-century church, a local shop, a village hall, and a well-regarded primary school. Dunholme has an annual summer fête, and the village is home to several sports clubs, including bowls, badminton, cricket, and netball.
