Seller Insights

“We commissioned the build of this property which began in 2019 and took some time to complete, not helped by Covid! It was going to be our forever home so we used top quality materials and the highest spec fixtures and fittings; we are self-confessed perfectionists so everything in terms of materials and workmen, had to be perfect down to every last little detail. I think that is largely why the build took so long - because we patiently waited for the best materials, builders and craftsmen to be available.”

“The whole building was designed with a family in mind using floor tiles predominantly downstairs for practicality and the underfloor air source heating makes it very efficient to run; there are 4 or 5 years left on the government incentive which will carry over into the next ownership providing a nice bit of income. The top floor has an air conditioning unit – great for keeping it cool - which also acts as a heater for use in the winter.”

“It’s a wonderfully light and airy house with a big hallway and the doors onto the garden at the back are ideal in summer especially if entertaining. The glazing in the gable end is tinted to stop any glare as it is such a bright space.”

“The house sits in a very quiet position and the garden is mainly south facing so it is incredibly sunny and means we see fantastic sunsets to the west. The views are gorgeous over the open countryside and there is an abundance of wildlife in the paddock behind and the fields beyond; lots of pheasants and owls and sometimes deer.”

“The drive is big with room for a lot of cars so perfect for a party! There is vehicle access down one side of the house behind the garage for convenience. The garage is an over-sized double and has masses of space up above with Velux windows, reached by a pull-down ladder.”

“We love Burgh. My husband grew up here and we intend to stay but now we want land for horses so our dream home is having to be sold! It is a lovely little town with a primary school which has such a good reputation that lots of children come from Skegness and villages all around. The school runs an annual summer fete which is always a great event, the village has a park with playground equipment, and a local farmer provides pick your own strawberries in the summer and has a pumpkin patch in the autumn!”
