Description

Green Mile House is an impressive and substantial country residence offering scale, privacy and significant development potential, set within beautifully maintained grounds and surrounded by open countryside.

The principal house sits within approximately 3 acres, alongside a collection of outbuildings with planning permission for eight holiday cottages, presenting a rare opportunity to create a high-quality residential and income-producing estate. Whether utilised as guest accommodation, short-term holiday lets or a private compound, the approved scheme adds considerable value and flexibility to the property.

The main house itself provides generous and well-proportioned accommodation, including nine double bedrooms, four bathrooms, two grand reception rooms and a formal dining room, all rich in period character and traditional craftsmanship. Features such as a butler's pantry and cellar further enhance the sense of scale and heritage, while offering scope for sympathetic modernisation if desired.

The surrounding gardens are a standout feature formal, mature and private ideal for entertaining, events or quiet enjoyment. The setting offers a rare combination of seclusion and accessibility.

Further Land Available by Separate Negotiation

In addition to the core holding, approximately a further 10 acres is available by separate negotiation, offering substantial commercial and development potential.

This includes:

A former paddock with planning permission for 31 holiday lodges, set within an attractive rural landscape, bordered by mature hedgerows and woodland, with a natural pond.

Additional woodland and garden areas providing scope for further development (subject to planning) or enhancement of the wider estate.

This additional land presents a compelling opportunity for investors, developers or buyers seeking to expand an established holiday or leisure operation.

Ideally positioned just one hour from the East Coast and approximately 1 hour 15 minutes by train to London King's Cross, Green Mile House combines rural tranquillity with excellent connectivity. The nearby village of Babworth offers a peaceful setting with local amenities close at hand.
