Seller Insight On our very first approach to 26 Biggin Lane, we fell in love with it instantly.

Set within a conservation area, the lane is lined with mature trees and every home feels wonderfully individual.

Our house is tucked well back from the road, which gives it a real sense of privacy and calm, it is surprisingly peaceful for such a convenient location.

Inside, the rooms are beautifully spacious, yet the layout feels connected and welcoming. We have decorated throughout and added oak internal doors, which bring warmth and character to the home.

The lounge has been a favourite space of ours, it is wonderfully large, with windows at both ends, French doors opening onto the patio, and a log burner that makes winter evenings feel especially cosy.

The kitchen diner is equally inviting, and I have spent many mornings sitting with a coffee while looking out over the garden.

In addition to the main house, we have created a self-contained annexe: a cosy retreat for guests or family comprising a peaceful studio flat beneath a sloping ceiling, with its own bathroom below.

The garden has always been the true highlight. It is large, enclosed, mature and south-facing, enjoying sun all day.

The beautiful 80-year-old willow tree provides welcome shade in summer, while high hedging around the border provides a feeling of total seclusion.

We have loved eating and cooking with our own apples from the orchard, and growing and enjoying tomatoes, peppers and lettuce in the greenhouse too.

There is a generous patio for dining, a barbecue area, and even a hot tub for luxurious evenings with friends.

Indeed, entertaining here is effortless, from barbecues to a 50th birthday hog roast, the generous outside space suits every occasion.

The summerhouse, currently a pool room, is a brilliant bonus and could easily become a studio, office or garden lounge.

Ramsey is a lovely market town with a real community feel and excellent amenities close by.

There are three village primary schools including Ramsey Primary, as well as the secondary school, making it ideal for families.

We have always appreciated having Tesco, coffee shops, pubs, hairdressers and even a gift shop all within easy reach, along with the health and leisure centre.

For weekend walks, Ramsey Abbey and its duck pond are a favourite, and the rural museum is a hidden gem.

People come from miles around for the annual August 1940s event too, which brings the whole town to life every summer.
