Property description
The Croft is an impressive and spacious country house set in approximately two acres of private gardens and grounds surrounded by open countryside.

The original property dates back to the 1930's and has over the years been extended and refurbished throughout to create a welcoming, stylish home that includes wonderful entertaining space and relaxed, flexible family rooms. French doors along the outside of the house allow many of the rooms to be extended out into the garden on sunny days and the many windows throughout increase the feeling of light and space. Each of the bedrooms have wonderful views over the gardens and outside, the house is surrounded by mature grounds with expanses of lawn and boasts four useful outbuildings which could have a versatile use to the discerning purchaser. With its substantial accommodation and secure location, The Croft is an attractive and practical country property with a unique style in an excellent Lincolnshire location.
