Insights “We purchased the house five years ago and whilst it is relatively modern house, built around 20 years ago, we have extended and completed a back to brick refurbishment of the entire property.” “We lived in a rental property whilst we completed the major works such as new plumbing and electrical systems, including a new gas boiler. The insulation has been upgraded and all internal areas re-plastered and redecorated. In-screed wet underfloor heating has been installed to the whole of the ground floor and we replaced all the windows and doors with The Residence A++ rated Upvc double glazed ones so the house is very comfortable and energy efficient to run.” “The bespoke breakfast kitchen has a huge amount of storage space with floor to ceiling pantry units and the breakfast bar ensures its practical as well as sociable.” “We replaced the study wall with an internal glazed one to allow the sunlight light to flood through into the open plan living area. This space is very versatile, we currently have it as a living area with games room but it could easily include a dining room. The bi-folding doors from the living room open onto the rear sandstone terrace which is a great place to relax and entertain, especially in summer.” “The house has a huge amount of storage throughout including the basement which we have insulated and fitted with an electrical fresh air system so it is a superb wine store.” “The gardens were previously just gravel areas but we have thoughtfully landscaped over the years and they now provide year-round interest. The property takes its name from the splendid Acer trees at the front, and we have beautiful climbing roses, wisteria and fragrant lavender. The ponds are rainwater fed and attract all sorts of wildlife.” “Harmston offers beautiful rural living but with every required amenity close at hand; the thriving village of Navenby is just a few minute’s drive away, Lincoln a 15 minute drive and excellent rail and road networks are nearby too.” Services: Mains gas, water, electricity and drainage; gas-fired central heating Local Authority: North Kesteven District Council Council Tax Band: EPC: C Tenure: Freehold
