Large elevated plot with expansive Lincolnshire countryside views and architectural plans.
Full planning permission granted for contemporary L-shaped replacement
A rare countryside redevelopment opportunity, Old Ash Barns sits in an elevated, fully fenced plot of about 0.93 acres with uninterrupted open-field views across Lincolnshire — including distant glimpses of Lincoln Cathedral and Boston Stump. The existing farmhouse, barn and outbuildings are weathered and require a comprehensive refurbishment or replacement, but the site already benefits from full planning permission for a contemporary ‘L’-shaped replacement designed by award‑winning interior architect Marta Nowicka (shortlisted for Grand Designs).
The granted plans propose flexible accommodation arranged over two linked wings and an annex, creating multiple ensuite bedrooms, living kitchens and study space — a scheme that will deliver a large, modern family home or a high-value holiday/letting proposition. The property totals c. 2,903 sq ft on paper and currently offers many renovation and conversion possibilities thanks to its substantial footprint and existing outbuildings.
Buyers should note material negatives up front: the house requires comprehensive works (structural and cosmetic) and the site currently contains a storage container and several older buildings that will need clearing or demolition as part of redevelopment. Broadband is slow and the hamlet is an isolated, low‑service location with average mobile signal — ideal for privacy but less convenient for daily commuting.
For a developer, investor or buyer seeking a private rural retreat, this plot, planning permission and strong architectural concept substantially reduce early-stage design risk and offer a clear route to a contemporary home in a truly secluded Lincolnshire setting.
