A rare opportunity to purchase an elegant and beautifully appointed period country home. Sitting in a mature, secluded, south facing garden of just under a quarter of an acre, Albion House provides the perfect balance of modern living within the framework of a home dating back at least 200 years.
Lovingly renovated by the owners, it is currently configured to provide 3 reception rooms, a family kitchen, downstairs WC, utility room, 3 double bedrooms with an ensuite to the master bedroom and a family bathroom. With the added bonus of a garage, ample off road parking and a spectacular patio for al fresco living, a finer example of country comfort would be hard to find. A stunning rural family home, sympathetically restored to a high standard, with the extra icing on the cake that planning has been granted to build a double extension to the side of the property, to create another reception room with 2 further bedrooms and ensuite upstairs, making this a substantial 5 bedroom, 4 reception room, 3 bathroom property. The best of both worlds, if a slice of village life within a thriving community is what you yearn for then this home is ideal. Just minutes from the A1 and Grantham's mainline railway station and with the market towns of Stamford, Oakham and Melton Mowbray all within easy reach, Albion House is a stunning rural home that has something for everyone.
Albion House is a unique home in Skillington, a thriving rural village, situated approximately 7 miles south of Grantham. There are 2 churches, a busy village hall, a pub, and if flying high is on your bucket list, there is a super gliding club less than 5 minutes away. There are several good primary schools in the local villages of Buckminster, Colsterworth and Great Ponton with a good choice of secondary schools in the neighbouring towns of Grantham, Melton Mowbray and Stamford, all within 20 minutes. This home is ideally situated in rural surroundings but also within easy reach of the A1. And if you like the idea of living in the countryside but work in London, the train from Grantham to Kings Cross is a mere 70 minute commute.
