Elevated private plot with paddock potential and far-reaching rural views.
Detached period cottage on edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds
Set on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, this detached period cottage offers a rare, elevated plot with far-reaching fen and village views. The property includes three large stables, a tack room and extensive grounds — ideal for small-scale equestrian use, kennels, or ambitious gardens. The home sits well back from the lane with private parking and additional overgrown land of about 1/4 acre across the way.
The cottage retains character features such as exposed beams, a fireplace and traditional room proportions, but it requires comprehensive modernisation throughout. The building has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, older double glazing (pre-2002), oil-fired boiler heating and an EPC rating of E; buyers should budget for fabric, heating and energy-efficiency upgrades.
For a buyer seeking privacy, outdoor space and scope to add value, this is a strong proposition. The very large plot (circa 3/4 acre) and separate parcel offer landscaping or paddock potential. It’s well placed for rural life — quiet lanes for hacking and walks, local shops within a mile and Spilsby and Boston within easy driving distance.
This home suits a family or equestrian-minded buyer prepared for renovation work, or an investor wanting to restore character and improve energy performance. Important practical notes: renovation is required, heating runs on oil, and one parcel is currently overgrown and will need clearance and landscaping.
