Sellers Story

We bought the house at auction in 1979. It had everything we wished for – character, a good-sized garden, a position on the edge of a lovely village and surrounded by fields. It also has history – it was built for the coachman who worked at what used to be the rectory opposite, now Seagrave Hall. I have taken part in village life and have made many friends. My children grew up here and loved the house.

It is difficult to say which is my favourite room as each has its own character. I spend most of my time in the kitchen, but I love the living room with its inglenook fireplace and the log burner alight in winter, especially at Christmastime when the beams are decorated.

My best memories involve my children. I think of building snowmen on the lawn and a ‘ski-jump’ for the sledge in winter, and then a water-slide down the slope in summer. It was wonderful for the children to play ‘man-hunt across the fields on summer evenings.
I have enjoyed being part of village events, such as the fete, scarecrow competition, marshalling for the annual Wolds Challenge run and the various church events, including ringing the bells.

I will miss the people I know and the friends I have made. I will miss the view of the field with beautiful old trees and the livestock.
I am selling because I feel that I need to move closer to my family, who all live far away. The other main reason is that, though I love gardening and find it relaxing and interesting, the garden is now too big for me to manage as I would wish to.
