Set in the quiet hamlet of Sotby, The Manor House is a newly renovated Georgian residence marrying period detail with modern comforts. The main house (GIA approx. 4,062 sq ft) and adjoining outbuildings extend to about 6,701 sq ft in total, offering six double bedrooms, three bathrooms and four formal reception rooms. High ceilings, original panelling, sash windows and engineered oak floors retain authentic character while careful heritage-led refurbishment has renewed the fabric and services.
Equestrian owners will value the separate gated entrance to the stable yard: seven stables with water and electricity, tack rooms, groom’s quarters and a gated paddock of about 1 acre. There is further land available to rent nearby by separate negotiation. The formal gardens are extensively landscaped with a garden room, gravel turning circle and scope to convert an existing double garage into a home office or ancillary space.
Practical specifics are straightforward: oil-fired boiler with new Harlequin oil tank, private sewage treatment plant (compliant), mains water and electricity, double glazing fitted after 2002, and a wine cellar. The property sits in a rural, remoter community close to the Lincolnshire Wolds and local towns, with good road links and schooling options nearby.
Notable considerations: broadband is very slow and the area scores as relatively deprived; the property carries an expensive council tax band and heating is oil-fuelled (not linked to a community supply). Some outbuildings are currently used for storage and would need conversion works to become habitable or office space. Further land for grazing is available only by separate lease and is not included in the sale.
