4 Bedroom Detached House

Set within the peaceful village of Laxton and enjoying a truly rare outlook across the last remaining open field farm lands in the UK, this characterful four-bedroom detached home offers a lifestyle that’s becoming increasingly hard to find

---

open views, privacy, and a home that feels steeped in history, yet perfectly suited to modern family life. Believed to be approximately 200 years old, with a rear extension added around 1950, the property has been thoughtfully improved over time while retaining the period features that give it such warmth and soul.

Arrival & Outside – a private, country welcome

Arriving through a secure dual gated entrance, you immediately get that “this is home” feeling. The driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles, ideal for family life, visiting friends, or those with hobbies that need extra space. There’s a log store ready for cosy evenings by the fire, a garage with overhead storage for bikes, tools and outdoor kit, and a raised lawned front garden with mature shrubs that creates a lovely sense of arrival.

And then there’s the setting

---

the kind that encourages slower mornings, long dog walks, and evenings watching the light change over the fields. It’s peaceful, open, and wonderfully timeless.

To the rear, stone steps lead up to a beautifully established garden that feels wonderfully private and peaceful, with a layout that’s been designed to make the most of the setting and the open countryside beyond. Featuring a generous patio terrace

---

an ideal spot for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or summer evenings with friends

with plenty of room for a table and chairs.

Inside – character you can feel, space you can live in

a room that instantly sets the tone. With original beams and parquet flooring, and a cast iron fire with oak surround, it’s the perfect space for family meals, Sunday roasts, and hosting friends at Christmas.

To the left, the sitting room is made for relaxing. Original beams, real wood flooring, a multi fuel burner, and an exposed brick inner fireplace create a cosy retreat for winter nights

the kind of room where you’ll happily switch off, put a film on, and settle in.

To the right, the home opens into a standout kitchen and living area

the true heart of the house and a space designed for modern living. Installed in 2017, the kitchen is beautifully finished with granite worktops, a sunken sink, and a central island with breakfast bar

ideal for morning coffees, homework at the counter, and chatting while you cook. The layout is perfect for entertaining, with a double oven (one with hide-and-slide door), induction hob, and integrated dishwasher, while the open-plan living/dining area is centred around an original stone fireplace.

Patio doors lead straight out to the rear garden, making summer BBQs, drinks on the patio, and effortless indoor-outdoor living a real part of everyday life. The kitchen also connects to a practical boot room

ideal after countryside walks, muddy paws, or busy school runs.

Upstairs – four doubles, beautifully finished

Upstairs, you’ll find four double bedrooms, all with original wood flooring refurbished by the current owners

giving you that “move straight in” peace of mind.

Practical upgrades
