Creeton, Grantham, NG33

The Rectory is a handsome Grade II Listed former rectory near the Georgian market town of Stamford. Set close to the ancient church of St Peter and approached along a quiet no-through lane, it is a house with presence, history and a wonderfully settled sense of place.

Built of local limestone beneath a Collyweston slate roof, the house is understood to date from circa 1750, with a commanding Victorian Gothic frontage added in 1850. Stone mullion windows, an arched entrance, tall chimneys and characterful decorative detailing sit comfortably alongside interiors that feel warm, elegant and deeply liveable.

The main house extends to approximately 5,363 sq ft and opens into a welcoming reception hall, from which the principal rooms flow naturally. Three reception rooms, a dining room and a conservatory provide an excellent balance of formal and informal living space, with tall sash windows, internal shutters, stone and timber floors, fireplaces and wood-burning stoves adding texture and atmosphere throughout.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the house, with painted cabinetry, timber worktops, an oil-fired Aga and space for informal dining. A utility room, cloakroom and cellar add the practical spaces expected of a house of this scale, while the conservatory creates a light-filled connection between the house, terrace and gardens.

The bedroom accommodation is arranged across the first and second floors. The principal suite includes a dressing room and bathroom, with four further bedrooms, a study and family bathroom facilities arranged across the first floor. A sixth bedroom, shower room and useful storage occupy the second floor, giving the house flexibility for family life, guests and working from home.

Behind the house, the stone barn complex brings further value and versatility. The self-contained annexe has its own kitchen, living room, bedroom and shower room, making it well suited to guest accommodation, multigenerational living or potential income use, subject to any necessary consents. The wider barn complex includes a home office, gym/garage, carport, garaging and stores, with fibre to the premises broadband supporting those who work from home.

The property is offered for sale with no onward chain.

Externally

The Rectory sits within gardens and grounds extending to circa 2.20 ac. The setting is mature, private and beautifully established, with lawns, clipped hedging, topiary, mature trees and far reaching views across the surrounding Lincolnshire countryside.

The gardens have a gentle structure and a wonderful sense of abundance, with apple and pear trees, generous flower borders and mown paths leading through the grounds. A natural swimming pond forms a particularly special focal point, with decked seating and soft planting around the water. A new pump was installed in 2025.

An all weather tennis court provides further outdoor amenity, with cricket net and goal posts adding flexibility for family use.
