Griffinwood is a substantial four-bedroom detached family house set in about 2.6 acres (STS) on the edge of Burton, three miles from Lincoln. The house extends to approximately 3,350 sq ft and offers generous, light-filled reception rooms including a 25 ft triple-aspect lounge and a conservatory, both with French doors to a large terrace — ideal for entertaining and family life. Grounds include formal lawns, woodland, orchard, wildflower meadow and a maintained tennis court.
Accommodation is practical and well-planned: a double-aspect principal bedroom with a large en-suite, three further double bedrooms with storage, separate study, formal dining room, kitchen/dining with pantry, utility and boot room, plus an integral triple garage with attached stores. Additional outbuilding “The Old Stable” provides character and a versatile external store space. The owners have replaced windows and doors with double glazing and refurbished the conservatory.
Notable running and maintenance points are clear and factual: heating is oil-fired to a boiler and radiators, there is a private septic tank, the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, and the property dates from before 1900 which may require ongoing maintenance and sensitive repairs. The EPC is E and the property sits in Council Tax band G. There is an overage clause affecting the garden (buyers should review terms).
This home will suit a family seeking country living with quick access to Lincoln’s amenities, or buyers wanting sizeable private grounds with sport and leisure facilities already established. It offers immediate enjoyment and clear scope for sympathetic updating, particularly around energy efficiency and any modernisation that preserves the property’s character.
