Procter Drive, Girton, Newark

Holly Farm Barn comprises a recently completed conversion and renovation providing five bedroomed accommodation, a useful profile-clad former farm building and land extending to 0.55 acre or thereabouts. The property is situated on high ground with wonderful open countryside views. The small genuinely unspoilt village of Girton is situated just 8 miles north of Newark.

The stunning accommodation provides practical space for modern living with exceptionally light and airy rooms. The property has underfloor heating on the ground floor and panelled radiators upstairs. All rooms are separately thermostatically controlled. The wooden window frames are designed to be contemporary with a traditional farm building. The brickwork is finished with lime mortar pointing. There are metal rainwater goods and the property stands under a clay pantile roof. Central heating is a heat source pump.

The ground floor accommodation provides a spacious entrance hall, sitting room, garden room and kitchen with an impressive vaulted ceiling. There is a utility room and bedroom five is adaptable as either a good size family bedroom or workplace study. From the main hall the ground floor provides two double sized bedrooms, box room, boiler room and bathroom. The first floor bedroom provides master bedroom and guest bedroom, both en-suite.

Externally there is a two bay carriage house and a bay forming the porch entrance. The 13.5 x 13.5m former agricultural building is reclad in coated profile to provide the potential for hobby space, workshop and storage.

Narrow lanes with quaint cottages and houses form the village scenery of Girton and the tiny stone built St Celia's church is a focal point of the village. The property stands on relatively high ground in the village on which High Street and Tinker's Lane lead down to join the A1133 Newark to Gainsborough road.

The village is approximately 8 miles north of Newark. There are excellent amenities at Collingham which is a village 2 miles to the south. Here there is a Co-operative store, convenience store, medical centre, pharmacy, dental surgery, newsagents, family butchers and primary school. There are railway services from Collingham to Newark, Lincoln and Nottingham. The village is 6 miles or so from the A46 trunk road and the A1 intersection. East Coast railway trains are capable of journey times between Newark Northgate and London King's Cross in just over 75 minutes.
