Description

Nestled in a tranquil setting just a short distance from the heart of Louth, this impressive period property offers an expansive living space of over 5,500 square feet and presents exciting opportunities for renovation and development. With its striking red brick façade, the house boasts many original architectural details that echo its historic charm, though it is ready for modernization to bring it up to contemporary standards. Upon entering, you’ll find a traditional layout featuring five spacious reception rooms. The drawing room stands out at approximately 25 feet, showcasing a dual aspect with large bay windows, intricate ceiling patterns, and an open fireplace that highlights the home’s character. The sitting room also benefits from a fireplace and abundant natural light from its sunny orientation. Two dining rooms—one accessible via sliding glass doors to the garden—offer flexibility for both everyday meals and entertaining. Additionally, there is a conservatory providing further connection to the outdoors and additional living space. The upper floor features seven generously-sized double bedrooms arranged around a galleried landing. The principal bedroom includes a dressing room with potential for conversion into an en suite bathroom. A family bathroom and shower room serve the additional bedrooms, while another kitchen on this level can enhance functional living arrangements or accommodate guests. Set back along a private driveway, the property boasts ample parking alongside well-maintained gardens filled with mature plants and trees. The grounds include impressive outbuildings such as a brick-built garage and stables totaling over 2,000 square feet. These structures offer significant potential for repurposing or redevelopment, subject to obtaining necessary permissions. Other outdoor amenities include a former piggery and additional storage spaces. Ideally located just 0.4 miles from Louth's vibrant market town center, residents are within easy reach of essential amenities including shops and schools like King Edward VI Grammar School. The proximity to the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty provides excellent walking and cycling routes, while the coast is only 16.4 miles away for seaside leisure activities. With its combination of historic features, substantial living space, extensive grounds, and prime location close to local amenities and natural beauty, this property represents not only a charming home but also an exceptional investment opportunity for those looking to make their mark through renovation or development projects.
