Although it is in need of a full renovation, the home offers buyers an “opportunity to create a superb family home of great character”, as stated on Rightmove.

The property is spread over three floors, including an L-shaped entrance hall, two reception rooms, a large kitchen/dining room, first floor drawing room and master bedroom.

Behind the house and garden, there is also a graveyard which is considered the least known in Grantham and is open each year during Heritage Week in September.

A large number of people were buried there between 1809 and 1857, which St Wulfram’s parish register notes as between 80 and 250 burials taking place each year between these dates.
