Spalford Road, North Scarle, Lincoln, Lincolnshire, LN6

Nestled within an exclusive gated development of just three individually converted contemporary homes, on the edge of the sought-after village of North Scarle, 1 Enfield Paddocks occupies an enviable position amidst mature woodland and open countryside. Extending to approximately 1.4 acres (STS), the grounds include lawned gardens, ample parking and private woodland, with the opportunity to rent part or all of the adjoining paddock land of approximately 10 acres.

Offering a rare combination of contemporary living, outdoor space and rural lifestyle potential, the property is ideally suited to equestrian purchasers, those seeking a smallholding, or buyers looking to embrace the tranquillity of country life.

Beautifully designed and finished throughout, the property combines contemporary styling with energy-efficient construction and thoughtfully planned single-storey accommodation. Cedar-clad elevations contrast elegantly with dark steel-tiled detailing, creating a distinctive appearance that sits sublimely within its natural surroundings.

The heart of the home is a superb 33 ft. open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, designed for both relaxed family living and entertaining. The stylish kitchen is fitted with sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances and a substantial central island, whilst large windows and bi-folding doors flood the space with natural light and create a seamless connection to the extensive, south facing timber terrace beyond.

The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, comprising four generously proportioned double bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys direct access to a private paved terrace through bi-folding doors and is served by a well-appointed en-suite shower room. A second double bedroom also benefits from en-suite facilities with a spacious double shower, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom.

Despite its tranquil surroundings, the property remains exceptionally well connected, with Newark approximately 10 miles away providing direct rail services to London King's Cross in around 73 minutes, whilst the historic Cathedral City of Lincoln lies approximately 11 miles to the north-east. Excellent road links are available via the nearby A1, A46 and A17.


Developers Insight

“Having owned the site for over 40 years, I have always valued the peace and privacy afforded by its woodland setting and surrounding countryside. It is something that almost everyone who visits comments on, and a quality that makes this place so special. Enfield Paddocks is the result of many years of planning and careful design, transforming a former agricultural building into three contemporary homes, each occupying a generous plot and enjoying a unique connection to the landscape.

Every aspect of the development has been carefully considered. One of the most important decisions was the choice of materials. The combination of natural cedar cladding and steel-tiled detailing was selected to balance warmth and character with durability and low maintenance. Cedar offers far more than visual appeal; its rich texture creates a natural connection to the surrounding landscape, whilst its durability, sustainability and resistance to the elements make it an exceptional long-term building material. Naturally resistant to rot and insect attack, cedar requires very little maintenance and ages beautifully over time, developing additional character as the years pass. The steel-tiled detailing provides a crisp contemporary contrast together with outstanding durability and weather resistance, ensuring the homes remain both attractive and practical for years to come.

Equally important was ensuring the homes would perform as well as they look. Significant emphasis was placed on energy efficiency through the incorporation of solar panels, air source heat pumps and high levels of insulation, creating homes that are both environmentally conscious and economical to run.

The generous glazing was deliberately designed to maximise natural light and frame the beautiful views across the surrounding countryside, whilst the open-plan layouts create a seamless relationship between the internal living spaces and the gardens beyond. The aim was to create homes that successfully combine contemporary design with the comfort, efficiency and practicality expected of modern living.

Beyond the development, we own approximately 10 acres of adjoining paddock land, which can be made available to purchasers on a long-term rental basis. One of the fields is already connected to water and electricity, making it particularly appealing for those with equestrian interests or anyone seeking additional outdoor space.

Whilst enjoying a wonderfully secluded countryside setting, Enfield Paddocks remains exceptionally well connected. The historic City of Lincoln lies approximately 11 miles away, whilst Newark, just 10 miles distant, offers direct rail services to London King's Cross in around 73 minutes. North Scarle itself is a welcoming and well-supported village with a strong sense of community, a well-regarded primary school and an excellent range of local sports clubs and activities and the surrounding area offers an abundance of walking routes, nature reserves and outdoor pursuits.

Enfield Paddocks represents the best of both worlds: a peaceful rural retreat surrounded by nature, yet with the convenience of village life and excellent transport connections close at hand. It has been immensely rewarding to bring this long-held vision to life, and I hope future owners will enjoy the unique lifestyle, setting and sense of tranquillity that make Enfield Paddocks such a special place to call home."
