Sellers Insight:

‘Around 20 years ago, while we were developing the nearby barns and crew yard, we had the opportunity to build Granary House as our family home. Our aim was to create a sociable and welcoming family home, both inside and out, somewhere our children and grandchildren could enjoy growing up and enjoy spending time together.’

‘Internally, we wanted a balance between large sociable spaces for family life and entertaining such as the kitchen-dining room, lounge and snooker room and quieter spaces such as the sitting room / library and the study with their beautiful bay windows to work and relax.’

‘It was important to us that the house seamlessly connected to the gardens, so we installed a huge number of French doors to fill the house with light and make the most of the changing views through seasons. The house has a huge sunny, south facing terrace to the rear which can be accessed from the lounge, dining room, snooker room and bar. Then to the front of the house we have a private, walled central courtyard which is accessed from the kitchen/dining room, hallway and entrance. The house is very spacious yet practical and welcoming, whether seeking sunshine or shade during the day or a roaring fire in the evening, there is always the perfect place to sit.’

‘Granary House is of modern construction, with insulated cavity walls and solid floors and staircase, built to an exacting standard and finished with bespoke joinery and quality materials – reflecting our belief in ‘doing it right the first time’. Over the years we have continued to care for and update the property; the principal en-suite bathroom was refurbished a few years ago, and the tennis court is currently being repainted.’

‘Over time, we were fortunate to purchase additional land to secure our privacy. The grounds now extend to 6.2 acres and include a large lake, mature woodland and countless places to explore. Within the grounds we built an octagonal summer house and what I call the ‘Witch’s Cottage’ with a folly to keep the grandchildren entertained.’

‘The tennis court and gym has been a super investment for all generations, and the extensive garaging is ideal for a car enthusiast, offering space for up to four vehicles. A further 45ft steel portal-framed barn provides further versatile storage for machinery or kit.’

‘The setting is very peaceful and rural and we enjoy a wealth of birds and wildlife including a few visiting deer. When you sit out on the terrace and look across the lake to the trees beyond, you feel a million miles from anywhere, and yet in reality everything you might need is no more than a stone’s throw away, and that’s the real beauty of this location. Next door, Torksey is home to the highly regarded Lincoln Golf Club and has a coffee house and doctors surgery and for everything else Lincoln and Gainsborough are just a short drive away.’
