Description
Set on the edge of this picturesque village with far reaching views over the rolling countryside and within easy reach of local shopping facilities, this splendid home is in need of modest modernisation and enjoys ample gardens both to the front and rear that could easily accommodate an extension.
Description - A good-sized three bedroom property situated on the fringe of Allington, a sought-after village within easy reach of both the A1 and nearby Grantham. Accommodation briefly includes an entrance hall, kitchen, double aspect lounge, three bedrooms and a shower room with separate W.C..
Outside - The property is approached through gates onto a paved driveway with private, off-street parking. There is also a front pedestrian gate leading to the smaller front garden with lawns, trees, shrubs and flower beds.

Location - Allington is superbly located approx 3 miles North West of Grantham nestled in attractive and open countryside. The village benefits from a primary school, a well-respected pub and a beautifully converted Grade II listed country house hotel. There are playing fields and children's play areas both within walking distance.
