“We’ve lived here for nine years. We’d admired the property for many years before we had the opportunity to buy the property from a family friend. It was our dream home, so we jumped at the chance to buy it, and we’ve thoroughly enjoyed living in this beautiful setting. It’s been a difficult decision to sell, and we will take with us many memories of our time here.”“The house and grounds are all ready for a buyer to just move in and enjoy the surroundings. We’ve made lots of improvements and enhancements while we’ve been living here, such as fitting natural stone flooring in the main living areas and re-roofing the stable block.” “The views from the decked veranda are fabulous. The decked area is partially covered over, which means you can enjoy the stunning countryside views across the fields even on a rainy day. I shall always remember the amazing sunsets and incredible light shows during a storm.”“Stone Acre is well-equipped for equestrian use, with secure stables, a paddock and outbuildings. However, it could also easily be converted into separate accommodation for family members or overnight guests. Planning permission has already been granted for this conversion. Having recently added new roofing, converting the stables to living accommodation would be fairly straightforward.”“The garden is home to a very unusual evergreen Oak tree as well as a magnolia tree, fruit trees and a Japanese maple. We’ve installed some raised beds which are ready for planting. The garden is also a haven for wildlife, such as hedgehogs, owls and birds.”“The house, stables and paddock are extremely safe and secure areas for animals. The stables and outbuildings have been thoughtfully designed with plenty of storage space, a separate hay store and a washroom/WC at the back of the garage.”“The living spaces in the bungalow offer flexible spaces for entertaining, including a light and airy living room and a separate games room that has double doors to the decked veranda area. We spend a lot of time in the games room, playing pool and enjoying the fantastic views.”“Honington is a lovely village, with a close-knit community. We’re lucky to have great neighbours in the village and wonderful countryside on our doorstep. Equally, we’re only a few minutes away by car from larger villages such as Barkston and also Grantham. So, you’re living in this peaceful village but with easy access to shops and other amenities.”Services: Mains electricity, water and drainage; oil-fired central heating.
