A NOTE FROM THE VENDORS
\"We were looking for a larger house and, one rainy day, came upon this traditional property set in a quiet lane. The sign did say 'by appointment only' but, brazenly, we knocked on the door and were invited in to look around. The owners' dog was sat in front of a roaring fire and we were enchanted by the friendly ambience of the house. Built in 1790, it was obvious that the house required a great deal of attention, but we recognised its potential; our decision was made and Croft View has been our home for the past twenty years. Using the skills of local craftsmen, the house was totally refurbished inside and outside. We researched and replaced fixtures, especially fireplaces, with ones more appropriate to the character of the house. The beams which we exposed are said to originate from ships from the nearby 11th century river port of Bawtry, long since drained. We then built an annex in which an elderly relative lived happily and independently, for many years, plus an office for home working. The main accommodation is spacious, flexible and a wonderful home for children and now grandchildren. This is a great house for entertaining and, among our many parties, has been a milestone party for one of us when we had over sixty guests mingling with ease and comfort, then spilling out from the conservatory into the spacious garden.\"\"Our walled garden is a haven of peace and tranquillity, stocked with mature herbaceous plants and shrubs, with delightful water features and a lovely patio area for external dining, or relaxing with a good book.\"The friendly and active village has a well-stocked convenience store, sociable pub and excellent primary school, whilst older children attend schools in the next village of Epworth which, coincidentally, is where John Wesley was born. Here there are several independent shops, restaurants and excellent dining pubs, gym, plus a popular equestrian centre. Links to major roads and motorways are very convenient and there is a regular service from Doncaster into Kings Cross which takes one hour and thirty minutes.\"\"We now wish to move to a smaller property but will miss so much about this lovely comfortable and friendly home and garden, quietly tucked away in this special location.\"Peter and Fran
