Seller Insights

“My father built this property in the late 1980s and I am the first and only owner of 32A which has been a wonderful place to live. We were fortunate to be able to purchase the additional land to the rear of the property at a later date and now the property sits on a peaceful plot of around a third of an acre (STS).”

“The wraparound gardens are low maintenance with lawn and terrace areas and secure for children or dogs! Over the years we have established a productive vegetable garden to the rear and grown all sorts of things including potatoes, carrots, cabbages and asparagus and fenced off a smaller area as a herb garden. The area we call the meadow garden has been a great place for our chickens to live and dogs to run around. There is a useful 18ft timber workshop, dog kennel with fenced run and various stores so it perfectly suits a family with an interest in the outdoors and gardening.”

“We have continued to update and improve the property over the years, we replaced the windows and doors throughout to traditional style uPvc, refurbished the conservatory and also installed a new kitchen and bathroom.”

“It’s a peaceful area and we are lucky to enjoy beautiful views over the open countryside. Scopwick is a very pretty and well-kept village with some lovely walks from our doorstep. It’s a lovely safe village and has a real sense of community. The village hall is very active and hosts a range of clubs, activities and events such as the village show. The pub is just a few minutes’ walk away and serves wonderful authentic Greek food and has quite a few things going on.”
