Property description
A rather special, large family home, believed to have been built by the builder of the close for his own habitation, hence the premium position. The front view doesn't do the property justice - it is actually of a dormer style with three good sized bedrooms, a bathroom and shower room downstairs and two very large bedroom upstairs (one of which is currently used as a snooker room & would make a super games room). There is also potential & space to put a shower room upstairs Also downstairs there is a long horseshoe shaped hallway with a dining kitchen (cooking range included), lounge with feature fireplace and study/snug which in turn leads out onto the sun terrace. Benefits include oil central heating, double glazing, alarm and cavity wall insulation. Outside, the property really comes into its own, with a long block paved driveway providing lots of off road parking + an oversized garage/workshop (with its own WC) and low maintenance front garden. The impressive rear gardens are much larger than you would expect and sweep down from the large sun terrace to offer a beautiful, expansive mature garden, with additional low level patio/seating area. A home, in a lovely Lincolnshire village setting - must be seen for yourself.

Sellers Thoughts:- 'We moved from Sheffield to Wildwinds in 1997 attracted to the bungalow by its actual size, potential and of course the huge South facing rear garden. At the time we didn't need such a large property but we always wanted to ensure our extended family would be able to visit and stay in comfort.
The entrance lobby is designed with two doors, which could easily offer the facility of splitting the upstairs and downstairs areas for conversion into teenager/granny accommodation.
Parklands is very quiet and peaceful and was originally purchased by local builders from the church, one of whom chose this house to be his family home. Just a few hundred yards away is the red Lion pub which also serves decent food. Across from the pub is the local church which holds craft fairs and group outings, whilst a little further up the road is the model car museum.
There is excellent schooling available in Alford with the school bus stopping at the end of the road. With Chapel St Leonards, Mablethorpe and Skegness, all on the doorstep. We feel this is an ideal family home location which lends itself to a variety of possibilities.'
