Occupying a rare riverside position on Vicarage Lane, this detached two-bedroom bungalow sits on a very generous, well-established plot approaching a quarter acre. The mature rear garden steps down to the River Steeping, offering private riverside access and a small jetty — a strong lifestyle draw for anglers or those who enjoy waterside views. Internally the accommodation is spacious (about 1,374 sq ft) with a wide hallway, large lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, utility and two double bedrooms.
Practical features include oil central heating, double glazing and uPVC fascias and soffits, plus a gated driveway that provides ample off-street parking and a large garage with an integrated store and WC. The bungalow is within walking distance of local shops and the Wainfleet train station with direct links to Skegness and Nottingham, which adds useful connectivity for occasional commuters or visitors.
The property is well suited to buyers seeking a peaceful riverside or retirement home with room for hobbies and gardening; it will particularly appeal to people downsizing who still want generous outdoor space. There is also scope for cosmetic updating and improvement: the former chimney is currently blocked (may be reopened subject to inspection) and many fittings are characteristic of mid-century styling, including a coloured bathroom suite.
Important practical notes: heating is oil-fired, which may mean higher running and servicing costs compared with mains gas. Broadband speeds are average and the wider area records relative deprivation indicators — check local services and transport needs if these are important. Flood risk is low, tenure is freehold and viewings are by appointment only.
