A truly exceptional country estate offering a lifestyle of luxury, privacy and endless possibilities. With independent accommodation, extensive entertaining space, over five acres of grounds and impressive workshop facilities, this is country living on an entirely different scale.
More than a home, an entire lifestyle.
Extending to over five acres, the estate has evolved into something truly special, offering an incredible amount of space, privacy and flexibility. Whether accommodating a large family, providing independent living for several generations, creating additional income opportunities or simply enjoying the freedom of country living, the possibilities here are extensive.
The Main Residence
The farmhouse offers generous and beautifully appointed accommodation, with a welcoming entrance hall opening into four versatile reception rooms. Each provides the opportunity to create a space suited to individual requirements, whether for formal entertaining, relaxed family living, working from home or somewhere to simply escape and unwind.
At the heart of the home is an impressive kitchen and dining space, thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Quality fittings and appliances are complemented by an adjoining orangery, creating a wonderful light-filled environment in which to enjoy everything from relaxed mornings to evenings spent hosting family and friends.
There are five generously proportioned double bedrooms, providing excellent accommodation for family and guests, with a wonderful sense of space throughout.
An Exceptional Private Luxury Retreat
Adding an entirely different dimension to the estate is an outstanding independent luxury suite, accessed via its own external entrance as well as internally from the home gym.
Created as a private sanctuary within the home, this beautifully appointed accommodation offers its own kitchenette and an indulgent en-suite wellness bathroom. The impressive walk-in shower incorporates heated seating and steam room functionality, enhanced by atmospheric mood lighting, with a separate WC and wash basin completing the facilities.
This is far more than additional bedroom accommodation. It offers the opportunity to enjoy a private retreat away from the main household, making an exceptional principal bedroom suite or providing independent accommodation for family members and visiting guests. With its own external access, there is also exciting potential for short-term guest accommodation or an Airbnb-style letting, subject to any necessary consents.
The Separate Two-Bedroom Barn Conversion
Further enhancing the versatility of the estate is a separate two-bedroom barn conversion, providing its own independent living environment. Ideal for extended family, guests or those seeking an additional income opportunity, it offers the freedom to enjoy the surroundings of the estate whilst maintaining privacy and independence.
Together with the luxury retreat, this creates an unusual level of flexibility, with multiple options for accommodating family, guests or potential paying visitors.
A Wonderful Setting for Outdoor Living and Entertaining
The grounds are a real highlight, extending to over five acres and offering a wonderful sense of space, privacy and tranquillity. Beautifully maintained lawns, established planting, mature greenery and landscaped areas create an attractive setting, with various terraces and seating areas providing plenty of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors.
For those who love entertaining, the facilities are particularly impressive. A dedicated bar creates a fantastic social space, whilst the substantial 37ft brick-built garden and entertaining room provides further scope for gatherings throughout the year.
Whether hosting family celebrations, enjoying long summer evenings or simply making the most of the beautiful surroundings, the outdoor lifestyle here is a significant part of the appeal.
Extensive Outbuildings, Garaging and Workshop Facilities
Beyond the principal accommodation, the estate offers an extraordinary collection of additional buildings extending to approximately 301.7 sq metres (3,247 sq ft), providing an exceptional amount of covered space and versatility.
The facilities include a substantial workshop measuring approximately 6.83m x 15.72m, multiple large storage rooms, a covered car port and a separate WC. For those with a passion for motoring, machinery or restoration, these facilities are particularly exciting.
A dedicated spray room, previously used for vehicle restoration, adds another highly desirable dimension. This offers an exciting opportunity for classic car enthusiasts, collectors or anyone looking to continue a specialist restoration interest, with the potential to create an impressive private motoring facility.
The generous workshop provides ample scope for vehicle maintenance, mechanical projects, hobbies or business use, whilst the extensive storage areas offer room for machinery, tools, equipment, stock or seasonal belongings. The covered car port provides further sheltered parking, making the estate particularly well suited to those with multiple vehicles, commercial requirements or larger equipment.
Whether you are looking for somewhere to house a collection of classic cars, accommodate agricultural machinery, pursue a restoration project, establish a dedicated workshop or simply enjoy the freedom of having substantial additional space, these buildings offer opportunities rarely found with a private country residence.
A substantial triple garage further complements the facilities, creating an impressive overall provision for vehicles, storage and hobbies.
A Rural Setting with Excellent Connectivity
Enjoying a peaceful position within the Lincolnshire countryside, the estate remains conveniently placed for access to surrounding villages and the wider road network. Humberside Airport is approximately 21 miles away, East Midlands Airport around 64 miles, with the M180 approximately 12 miles away and convenient access to the A15 and A631.
The property also benefits from high-speed broadband, with reported speeds of approximately 100Mbps, making it a practical choice for those working remotely or running a business from home.
An Estate That Offers So Much More Than a Home
This is a property that really does need to be experienced to appreciate the full extent of what it offers. The combination of an impressive period farmhouse, separate barn conversion, independent luxury retreat, dedicated entertaining facilities, extensive garaging and workshop buildings creates an estate with extraordinary versatility.
Whether your vision is a substantial family home, a multi-generational country residence, a private retreat with guest accommodation, a lifestyle business or simply a place where space and independence come as standard, this remarkable estate offers an exceptional range of possibilities.
From the beautifully appointed interiors to the extensive grounds and specialist outbuildings, this is a home where the lifestyle extends far beyond the front door.
