The ground floor living continues to the left of the entrance hall, with a snug and study both with feature fireplaces housing wood burning stoves. Beyond the study is a boot room, shower room and gym / ground floor bedroom 5. This end of the property could lend itself to a self-contained annexe, ideal for multiple generation living. The first floor offers a large master suite, featuring a walk-in wardrobe, dressing room, ensuite bathroom with stand-alone nickel bathtub, and two Juliet balconies taking in lovely views of open countryside. Bedroom 2 offers an ensuite shower room and walk-in wardobe. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are serviced by a main family bathroom, with separate shower and stand-alone bathtub.

The property is approached by its own private long driveway, leading to a spacious area of parking for several vehicles.

The landscaped gardens have been beautifully designed, with several patio areas surrounding the property perfect for entertaining and alfresco dining in the summer months. The grounds include a woodland, paddocks and a mini solar farm, contributing to lower running costs and sustainability.

Empingham itself is a sought-after village with excellent amenities including a village store, pub, doctors surgery, primary school and active village hall.
