About this property

DESCRIPTION
A rare opportunity to acquire two properties in this small hamlet in the beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds. Hillcroft is a four bedroom detached family home with a good sized garden and provides the opportunity for further enhancement, subject to planning consent and personal taste. In addition, there is The Old Smithy which is a detached cottage currently let on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy but would make an ideal annexe for an elderly relative or home working environment.

LOCATION
Thorganby is a small hamlet and surrounded by open countryside. Market Rasen is approximately 10 miles away providing good local amenities and schooling. Caister Grammar school is also within comfortable distance, as is the M180 and Humberside Airport.

DIRECTIONS
Head East from Brigg on the A18 and turn right onto the B1203 sign posted Thorganby. Using Google maps and the post code, as you join Swallow Road and the road bears around to the right, these properties are just on the right hand side.
