Wainfleet Road, Burgh Le Marsh, PE24 5AH

The Farmhouse at Jockhedge is set within a totally unique position within the beautifully established grounds of a 25 acre country park in the village of Burgh-Le-Marsh; only five miles from the coast and at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds, much of which is designated as 'an area of outstanding natural beauty'.

Totally renovated by the current owners, who themselves are well-respected developers in the area, to an exceptional standard, The Farmhouse had been their family home for several years, before more recently becoming part of a small portfolio of in-keeping luxury self-catering cottages that have been developed by local craftsmen from 19th century barns.
Approached over a private, tree-lined driveway, The Farmhouse enjoys a large, beautifully maintained plot with gardens to the front, side and rear and a generous driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles.

Immaculately well-presented throughout, this superb family home retains many character features, and includes four generous reception rooms and five beautifully appointed double bedrooms; three with en-suite, plus a family shower-room. For multi-generational buyers, or those looking to continue with the fabulous opportunity the location provides for holiday letting; The Farmhouse also has an attached two bedroom self-contained 'Lavender Cottage', with its own entrance and garden.
