* INDIVIDUAL DETACHED BUNGALOW * PLOT APPROACHING 5 ACRES * GENEROUS ESTABLISHED GARDENS * MENAGE & STABLES * GATED ACCESS * PADDOCK * OUTDOOR NATURAL SWIMMING POOL * GENEROUS DRIVEWAY & DOUBLE GARAGE * FURTHER POTENTIAL * IDYLLIC SEMI-RURAL SETTING * NO UPWARD CHAIN *

A very exciting opportunity to purchase an individual detached single storey dwelling occupying an idyllic location on a substantial plot which combined with both formal garden and paddocks approaches 5 acres.

The existing period property offers a substantial level of accommodation approaching 2,400 sq ft which although likely to require a general programme of updating based on todays requirements, it does provide an excellent blank canvas for those looking to place their own mark on a home and create a wonderful bespoke property in a fantastic semi-rural setting.

The property is approached via a gated driveway which will remain the ownership of Rectory Bungalow but does provide access for the adjacent Lodge, which is also available to purchase via separate negotiation. This in turn sweeps down past an orchard to a further gated access for the bungalow, into formal gardens surrounding the bungalow with a generous level of off road parking including a detached double garage, small timber stable block, and established orchard.

To the fore of the property is an interesting addition of a natural swimming pool, beautifully landscaped with raised timber deck and summer house, looking out onto the property's grassed paddock to the south, there is an enclosed menage with open field shelter and additional gated access in the south westerly corner back onto the A52.

The current accommodation comprises an initial entrance hall, sitting room, large open plan living dining kitchen, utility, additional garden room and study, three bedrooms, bathroom and separate shower room.

Subject to necessary consent the property is ideal for reconfiguration and offers scope to become a truly individual home within a wonderful setting.

The property is offered to the market with no upward chain and viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.

The village of Elton lies close to the A52 which provides excellent road access to the cities of Nottingham and Leicester, the A1 and M1. The neighbouring village of Orston has an excellent primary school and secondary schooling can be found in Bingham at Toothill, or in Grantham with the King's Grammar School for boys and South Kesteven Grammar School for girls. From the village there are excellent walks and bridleways through the Vale of Belvoir.
