About the Property This individual detached bungalow is thought to date back to the 1960s and has brick-faced cavity walls beneath a concrete-tiled pitched roof with photovoltaic solar panels. The windows are uPVC double-gazed units and heating is by a combination of the oil-fired central heating system and electric panel heaters. The property stands in an attractive rural location with fields to the side and rear, on the very outskirts of South Willingham. The bungalow has a larger-than-average plot, a driveway which could be extended, a particularly attractive, well stocked rear garden and views over the surrounding countryside.

Within the garden there is also a good size timber garden shed at the side of the property and a further shed together with a metal-framed greenhouse adjacent to the kitchen and fruit gardens at the foot of the main rear garden.
