Air source heating.

Grantham and the A1 close by.

That is a serious amount of home, efficiency and lifestyle for the guide price.

Set in the peaceful Lincolnshire village of Hougham, Oleander House offers proper countryside living without cutting you off from everything that matters. Grantham town centre is within easy reach, the A1 is close by, and the surrounding villages give you pubs, food, community, schools, golf, walks and days out almost on the doorstep.

This is not a house stuck in the middle of nowhere. It is a home that gives you the quiet when you want it, but with far more around you than people may first realise.

Marston is close by and offers a well-regarded village feel, with The Thorold, a community-owned pub, restaurant and shop, as well as a primary school. Barkston is also nearby, with another popular pub/restaurant option and local convenience. Belton is within easy reach too, giving access to Belton House and its National Trust grounds, huge outdoor spaces, walks, cafés and family-friendly facilities.

For golf lovers, you are also well placed for both Belton Woods Golf Resort and Belton Park Golf Club, making this a superb position for anyone who wants village life, countryside and leisure close by.

The property itself is equally impressive.

The entrance hall gives an immediate sense of space and practicality, with fitted Sharps storage for coats, shoes and everyday family life.

The main living room is a real feature, with large aluminium sliding doors opening towards the garden and a log burner for the colder months. It is a room that works in both seasons: open to the patio in summer, cosy and warm in winter.

A second reception room, currently arranged as a dining and family space, adds excellent flexibility. It could be used for formal dining, a snug, playroom, teenage space or additional living area.

The kitchen is properly equipped for family life, with extensive storage, central island, breakfast bar, five-ring gas hob, double electric oven, combination oven, warming drawer, built-in fridge and hot water tap with filtered cold water.

Alongside the kitchen is a separate utility room with further storage, sink, laundry space and direct access to the garden.

The separate home office / library is another key feature, especially for anyone working from home. With 2.5 gigabit broadband available, this is a home that makes remote or hybrid working genuinely practical, rather than forcing you onto the dining table.

A ground-floor shower room completes the downstairs accommodation.

Upstairs, the property continues to offer proper family space. The principal bedroom includes Hammonds fitted wardrobes and a generous en-suite with Jacuzzi bath, walk-in shower, vanity unit, WC and heated towel rail.

There are four further bedrooms, giving excellent flexibility for children, guests, hobbies or additional home working. The family bathroom is also a strong size, with both bath and separate shower.

Outside, the property has exactly what a home like this should have.

The block-paved driveway provides extensive parking and leads to the detached double garage, which also houses the battery storage system.

To the rear, the garden is mature, established and genuinely usable. There is a large patio for outdoor dining, lawn, planted borders, raised vegetable beds, greenhouse, composting area, shed, outside lighting and access along both sides of the house.

It is a garden for families, dogs, entertaining, growing your own produce or simply enjoying a quieter pace of life.

And that is really the point of this home.

Oleander House is not just about square footage. It is about what the whole package gives you.

A peaceful village setting.
A substantial detached home.
Exceptional energy efficiency.
Serious solar and battery storage.
A double garage and big driveway.
A proper home office.
A garden you can actually use.
Grantham and the A1 close by.
Pubs, schools, golf, countryside and Belton all within easy reach.
For buyers wanting space, quality, efficiency and location, this is a home that deserves serious attention.

At this guide price, it is well worth stepping through the door before assuming you have seen everything the market has to offer.
