The property offers flexible accommodation with both ground floor and first floor bedrooms & bathrooms. Being well-presented throughout, the accommodation comprises an entrance hallway with cloakroom, spacious living room with a feature fireplace and wood burner and dual aspect French double doors to the garden, dining room and a large open plan breakfast kitchen with a separate utility room, study and a ground floor double bedroom with ensuite shower room. The first floor then offers three further bedrooms, serviced by the main family bathroom.

Externally, the property can be approached either from the front with a gravelled driveway, or by the second gated driveway leading to the stable yard, with a long gravelled driveway leading to large area for parking and stable yard. The garden offers a spacious area of lawn, with well-stocked herbaceous borders designed for easy maintenance, with an entertaining area with pizza oven with power & lights and veranda, and summer house with hot tub with power and additional space for a sauna / ice bath if desired. 

For equestrian interest, the property is set back from the road in a quiet lane which leads directly to bridleways, giving excellent access to some of the best cross-country hacking the area has to offer. The facilities include a concrete yard with power & water supply, with two standard stables, one large mare & foal stable, tack room and barn. Sheepsgate, Vale View and UK Arena plus top trainers in the local area. Local pony clubs include Burghley Fritzwilliam, Cottesmore, Belvoir and Quorn.  

Maxey is a lovely village situated within close proximity of the sought-after Georgian town of Stamford and the city of Peterborough, which is increasingly popular due to its mainline trains to London Kings Cross in under an hour.  Maxey offers good amenities including a church, village hall, day nursery and public house. Further amenities can be found in the nearby villages with local shops 2 miles away, with main facilities in Stamford just 7 miles away. Some of the most prestigious schools located in Bourne, Stamford, Oakham, Uppingham and Oundle are all under approximately 20 miles driving distance.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
