A staircase leads to the second floor, which comprises three additional bedrooms (two en suite) and a large hallway set into the eaves, ideal as a playroom or home office.
Outside, the property is approached via an in and out gravel driveway with a block paved parking area in front of the garages, all flanked by manicured lawns. A brick portico leads to the double oak front doors. The rear gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, and a raised terraced area features a heated swimming pool with scenic views over the garden. A stream runs along the south western boundary of the property and beyond lies an orchard where a gate to the perimeter boundary provides access to a pedestrian pathway leading to the village of Torksey.
Agents Note
This property boasts an exceptionally high EPC rating, thanks to its combination of solar panels, a 16kW battery backup system, and an air source heat pump (ASHP). These renewable technologies not only offer outstanding energy efficiency but also significantly reduce utility costs. The ASHP currently benefits from ongoing RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive) payments, providing further financial advantage.
Uniquely, the property features a three-phase electricity supply, allowing for a larger solar panel array than would typically be possible with standard single-phase systems. This setup ensures enhanced energy generation and storage capabilities. Additional features include air conditioning to the kitchen garden room and all bedrooms, with the exception of the private guest suite, offering year-round climate control.
Location
The Fairways is an exclusive development of just 12 individually designed residential homes, set within a secure 14-acre gated estate in a beautiful area of countryside between the historic village of Torksey and the renowned Lincoln Golf Club. Torksey, mentioned in the Domesday Book, was once a significant medieval port where the Roman-built Fossdyke Canal links the city of Lincoln to the River Trent. The village offers scenic countryside walks, a rich historical heritage, and is home to the well-regarded golf club with mature tree lined fairways and a welcoming clubhouse.
Nearby villages such as Laughterton and Saxilby provide additional local amenities including shops and services. The village lies approximately 8.3 miles from Gainsborough and around 12 miles from Lincoln. Both towns offer a variety of shops, restaurants and schools, including Queen Elizabeth's High School in Gainsborough and The Minster Independent School in Lincoln. For a wider range of amenities, the cathedral city of Lincoln also boasts high street shops, independent boutiques, a vibrant entertainment district, and historic attractions such as Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle. The city is home to two respected universities and a lively cultural scene.
Transport connections are excellent, with the A1 about 15 minutes away and rail services to London available from Newark with a journey time of approximately 75 minutes.
