'We've always enjoyed the spacious detached layout of the house with it's quiet, private garden. The home has a wonderful view of the 14th century Magdalen college across the road & is in a peaceful location.
The house is also in a great position for bird watching at the 'Gibraltar Point' nature reserve, walking in the Lincolnshire Wolds and exploring local beaches - all things we love doing!'
