A beautiful RSPB nature reserve, Frampton Marsh, is only a few minutes further down the lane which provides a lovely expansive area for walking whilst viewing the abundant birds close up. Just inland from The Wash, one of Europe's most special places for wildlife, avocets, redshanks, skylarks and whimbrels can all be seen in summer, with thousands of ducks gathering on the freshwater landscapes in winter.The quintessentially English village of Frampton is 3 miles south of Boston and home to many historic properties notably the 12th century church of St Mary, Frampton Hall (1725) and Frampton House (1792). Frampton's village hall remains a hub for local activities including a preschool. The village lies on the edge of one of the great marine creek levees formed during the Bronze Age, about a mile from today's saltmarsh, and sits east of the A16 with neighbouring Kirton to the west. This larger village has a Co-op supermarket and two pubs, The Old King's Head, recently refurbished with a cafe and rooms, and The Black Bull, a lively pub also serving food. Other amenities include a hairdressers', an Indian restaurant, a Chinese takeaway, two fish and chip shops, a florist, a tearoom, and a bakery. The neighbouring village of Wyberton has a similar range of facilities whilst a more comprehensive range of eating, shopping, and cultural amenities can be found in Boston. The nearby A16 offers quick and easy access to the city of Peterborough (30 miles), and the market towns of Stamford (32 miles) and Kings Lynn (30 miles) in Norfolk to the east. Road links are excellent as the A16 connects close by to the A17 and the A52. The historic city of Lincoln is 35 miles (50 mins) to the northwest, the Lincolnshire Wolds - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty - is about 20 miles (30 mins) north and Lincolnshire's sandy beaches starting at Skegness are about 25 miles (40 mins) northeast.SchoolsAbout a mile and a half from the property, good primary schools can be found in Kirton (Ofsted rated 'Good'), and Wyberton (Ofsted rated 'Outstanding'). Whilst there is Thomas Middlecott Academy secondary school also in Kirton, Boston has popular grammar schools, The Boston Grammar School (for boys) and The Boston High School (for girls), both rated Good.Spalding, 11 miles south, has excellent grammar schools too, the Grammar (for boys) rated Good and the High (for girls) rated Outstanding.Seller Insights"The house was built in the 50s but was far smaller then, less than half the size; a two up two down house with a more or less square footprint. Over the decades it has been extended. In the 90s at least one side was extended and in 2006 the conservatory was added on the back.""We have done a complete refurbishment throughout the property which has included new electrics, new boiler, brand new radiators, some new windows so they are now all double-glazed uPvc, fitting a new kitchen, all new contemporary bathrooms and downstairs WC, professionally refurbishing the parquet hardwood floors and fitting new carpets elsewhere, adding modern panelling to the hall and the two living rooms and refitting the utility room.""Outside, the heated swimming pool has been professionally refurbished with a brand new sand filter. It's about 11 by 6 metres and has a shallow end of about a metre and a deep end of 2.5 metres, deep enough for diving hence the diving board. The bar and entertaining area has been fantastic for poolside parties and the pool has underwater lighting so it really sets the scene at night.""Above the pumping station is a treehouse with a balcony, reached by a ladder, which is a great place for children and teenagers.""The double garage has electricity and power and a vehicle door that opens on a key fob. There's a space we have used for a gym alongside it where we have installed new windows and French doors that open into the garden.""The garden is large, not overlooked and the main section is fully enclosed so secure if you have dogs or young children. The pool area is also sectioned off for safety. There are lots of paved areas where you can sit in the sun or shade. The terrace outside the living room has a pergola covered in grapevines a white and a red. The previous owners used to make their own home-made wine! There are also two apple trees that produce a good harvest in the autumn.""It is so quiet and peaceful here and the upstairs windows have lovely far reaching views over fields. We see pheasants and muntjac deer in the garden and hear lots of birdsong. We have the convenience of only being a mile from the A16 (both of us have found it easy to commute to the office in central London driving to Peterborough to catch a direct fast train) but we never hear any traffic noise. There are only three houses on this road so the majority of passers-by are dog-walkers. It's not far to Frampton Marsh which is a beautiful bird and nature reserve which has a visitor centre and a cafe."Services: Mains gas, electricity, water and drainage; gas central heating with electric underfloor heating in both bathroomsLocal Authority: Borough of BostonCouncil Tax Band: FTenure: FreeholdEPC D Rating For more details and to contact: https://realtyww.info/houses_boston-d196963/for-sale_i69703791
