King Street, Winterton, North Lincolnshire, DN15

A handsome and historic Grade II listed home with beautifully proportioned interiors, character-rich outbuildings, and mature walled gardens approaching two-thirds of an acre – discreetly set in the heart of the town.

Central House is a handsome and historic former farmhouse discreetly located in the heart of the popular North Lincolnshire town of Winterton. Dating back to the late 1600s, with Georgian and Victorian additions, this beautifully proportioned Grade II listed property offers five bedrooms, multiple reception rooms, three attic spaces, and a wealth of original detail throughout – all set within mature, private grounds.

A porticoed entrance leads into an impressive 25ft reception hall, featuring a Georgian wreathed staircase and a central archway that sets a refined tone. Flanking the hall are two elegant reception rooms, both forward-facing with tall sash bay windows. These rooms are bright and well-balanced, ideal for formal entertaining or relaxed family use, with original features offering scope for sympathetic enhancement.

To the rear of the home, a striking Victorian dining room with high ceilings and a traditional cast iron fireplace opens into a beautifully rebuilt conservatory, modelled on the property’s original period structure. This light-filled space connects seamlessly to the garden, creating a tranquil setting for everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen area reflects the property's layered history. Divided into two functional zones with a pantry, it features an 18th century fireplace, original servant bells, meat hooks, a traditional London sink, and a classic Esse range. A doorway leads to the former servants’ staircase, discreetly linking the kitchen to the upper floors and further highlighting the home’s historic character.

Upstairs, the main staircase leads to a generous landing serving three spacious double bedrooms, all with period features such as sash windows, deep skirting, and built-in cupboards. A house bathroom retains traditional character with a fire surround and original cabinetry. From a half landing, a fourth bedroom and additional bathroom create a natural guest or principal suite arrangement. A fifth bedroom to the rear, accessed via the secondary staircase, offers ideal flexibility as a nursery, hobby room or home office.

Above, three attic rooms provide extensive storage or potential for additional bedrooms, workspaces, or studio conversion (subject to consents).

Outside, the home sits within a mature plot approaching two-thirds of an acre, largely walled and exceptionally private. A broad gravelled driveway provides ample reception parking and leads to the former coach house, now a 25ft garage with tall doors. A charming rear courtyard is enclosed by a group of characterful outbuildings including the former groom’s room, bottling shed, and wash house. One has been converted into a dedicated workshop, while the others offer exciting potential for further workspace or ancillary accommodation.

The gardens are thoughtfully arranged, with sweeping lawns, ornamental planting, and a productive area featuring fruit trees, soft fruit bushes, and vegetable beds – ideal for those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle. The conservatory opens onto a terrace, providing a peaceful setting to enjoy the changing light and seasons.

Offering exceptional space, flexibility and a true sense of history, Central House is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of character and substance in a well-connected Lincolnshire town.
