Tathwell Grange, Tathwell, Louth, Lincolnshire, LN11

Highly productive arable farm situated in a stunning part of The Lincolnshire Wolds in a ring-fence

Description

The Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is renowned for high quality arable production and superb scenery and Tathwell Grange is an outstanding farm in this area. The large fields with free draining soils, modern farm buildings and a private location at the end of an adopted drive and no public rights of way crossing the land make the farm an attractive opportunity.

The principal residence is a handsome five bedroom red brick building with stone detailing and offers spacious accommodation within a manageable family home. The reception rooms are well proportioned with high ceilings and a wealth of period features. The property has benefitted from recent investment to create open plan kitchen living area with large island unit, the opening of fire places, external pointing, major roofing works, refurbishment of bell and tower, creation of rear porch and stone stairs.

The property is not listed and offers scope for further expansion should a purchaser desire. On the first floor a central landing leads off to five bedrooms, of which two bedrooms are en suite, and a family bathroom with magnificent views out across the land.

Outside is a double garage. The tree lined drive and mature woodland to the south of the house offer the owner privacy and security. The grounds are a combination of formal lawns bordered by impressive mature trees and shrubs. To the north of the house there are extended grounds with tree lined avenue down to a large pond, this has been opened up recently, significantly enhancing the appeal.

The land is well served by modern farm buildings, being centrally located on the farm with immediate access to public highway. Further ground works have been completed to the side of the most recent Grain Store to enable the expansion of this building in the future. Grain store 1, 24.5m x 28m. Grain store 2, 31m x 21.6m. General Purpose Building 31m x 14m. Part of this building is let out on a licence for classic tractor storage with a licence fee of £400 PCM.

Tathwell Grange Farm comprises a total of approximately 649.26 acres (262.74 hectares) of productive arable land set across a number of large well shaped fields suitable for modern agricultural machinery. The land lies in a ring fence with a central track running through the land allowing for easy access to the fields year round. The land is easy working capable of growing a wide variety of crops and producing good yields. Winter Wheat yields over the last two years have averaged across the whole farm over 4 tonne to the acre.

The Agricultural Land Classification of England and Wales shows the land as being mainly Grade 2 with the remainder falling into the Grade 3 band. The Soil Survey of England and Wales describes the land as coming mainly under Andover 1 series, which are silty soils over chalk and described as shallow well drained calcareous silty soils over chalk on slopes and crests. Deep calcareous and non-calcareous fine silty soils in valley bottoms. Suitable for cereals, sugar beet and potatoes.

A new slurry tank has been installed it has a capacity for 1600m3, this has allowed for significant quantities of digestate and slurry to be applied to the land increasing yields and overall soil health. The tank is located by the main track allowing for easy access via HGV’s allowing for slurry to be brought in from a considerable distance.

There are a number of small woodlands throughout the farm extending to 17.42 acres (7.05 hectares), in 2025 a new small area was planted on a steep bank in the south east corner of the farm.

Felling licenses have been obtained for two of the woodlands, these licenses allow for the felling of the timber and chipping to be then used to fire the boiler. The licenses for felling lie with the land and shall transfer on sale.
