First time on the market in 25 years, a rare opportunity to own this fine, Grade II listed country house of character in a much sought after, picturesque Lincolnshire village.

A warm and welcoming, spacious family home, Laughton Hall has been lovingly restored, tended and extended in keeping with its 18th century origins. Numerous period features include: original fireplaces, exposed ceiling and wall beams, panelled doors, wide and shallow tread Queen Anne staircase, large stained glass window and elegant, tall sash windows which create a light and airy atmosphere.

LOCATION
Just 5 miles from the market town of Gainsborough with its selective Grammar School, medieval Old Hall and vibrant Marshall’s Yard shopping square, Laughton itself is a thriving community. On the doorstep is The Ingram Arms public house and restaurant, a fine Norman church, farm shop, kindergarten and primary school along with forest walks and a lively series of events celebrating Christmas, Bonfire Night and Laughton Feast Day.

Further shopping is available in nearby villages, and the cathedral city of Lincoln can be reached within 30 minutes. Retford Railway Station with its fast service to London King’s Cross in just 90 minutes, is a 30 minute drive.

EXTERNALLY
Laughton Hall is set well back from the lane. A private gravelled drive sweeps between a fenced paddock with willow tree and spring daffodils, and the front lawn where generations of children have played and family weddings have been celebrated. Behind a brick Victorian Ha-Ha sits the formal front garden with sycamore and chestnut trees and well stocked flower borders, rockery and fernery. The house is partly clad in climbing roses and clematis.The delightful side garden is partly walled with extensive planting of mature honeysuckle, shrubs and flowers, and a spacious block-paved and stepped terrace for eating outdoors. There is also a walled barbecue area with access into brick and pantiled outbuildings, useful as storage, and the novelty of a rather rare Victorian two-seater earth closet for "Gentlemen and Workers". The grounds also feature a large gravelled parking area in front of two brick garages and wood store while an arched wooden door leads from a rear courtyard to a crew yard and pony stable.
