4 Bedroom Detached House

What the owner told us…

“We’ve lived here for almost sixty years. Raised our boys, held Christmases, birthdays, even a wedding reception in the garden. But even outside of all that, it’s just been a really happy place to come home to. I remember walking back from my mum’s, feeling flustered and rushed, and the moment I stepped into the orchard, everything just softened. That feeling never left.”

Our thoughts…

Homes like this don’t come around very often. It isn’t just the size, the garden, or the outbuildings. It’s the feeling. There’s something incredibly grounding about this house, and you notice it the moment you step through the gate.

Set back on its own generous plot of around half an acre in Easton on the Hill, this is a home full of light, privacy and history. You’re right on the edge of the village, close enough to feel part of it, but with a real sense of space around you. There are walks on your doorstep, a great pub nearby, and a proper sense of community.

The kitchen is big, bright and built for real life. There’s plenty of storage and workspace, room for a table, and that natural pull where everyone ends up gathering. A walk-in pantry takes care of the practical side, with a separate utility just beyond to keep everything out of sight. It all connects through to the rear hallway, where you’ll find a downstairs WC and access to both the dining room and garden. It’s a layout that simply works.

The living room runs the full depth of the house, with a large bay window at the front and a great sense of space and light. It works just as well for quiet evenings as it does for hosting a full house. Glazed wooden pocket doors lead into the study, which then opens through to the dining room, giving you flexibility when you want it and separation when you need it. The dining room itself is perfectly placed, opening straight onto the garden patio, ideal for entertaining or everyday use.

Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes, plus a fourth single that works well as a nursery, home office or dressing room. Each room is filled with natural light and offers good proportions. The bathroom is bright and well arranged, with a separate shower and bath, WC, basin and additional built-in storage.

Outside, the garden wraps around the house, with lawn to the front, a Japanese-style gravel garden with pond to one side, and the orchard to the rear. It’s a space that’s been shaped and enjoyed over decades. Whether it’s been used for family gatherings, growing vegetables, or simply stepping outside and switching off, it offers a real sense of freedom. No overlooking. Just open sky, trees.

There’s a double garage, a separate storage garage and a detached studio, previously used as a pottery workshop.

The house itself has grown over time, having been thoughtfully extended and carefully maintained. There’s scope to take it further if you wish, but it already works beautifully as it stands. It feels like a home you can settle into and shape over time.

The village is somewhere people tend to stay. There’s a great pub, a well-used playing field with cricket, football and a proper playground, and The Deeps nature reserve just across the road. Stamford is only a few minutes away for schools, shops and direct trains into London.

This is a home that doesn’t need dressing up. It’s light, spacious, private and full of character. If you’re looking for somewhere that gives you room to live and grow, this could be it.
