Seller Insights
‘Moor Farm is located down a private, tree lined drive, well set back from the road and it is a very tranquil spot to live, with no close neighbours and lots of wildlife. The gardens are interesting all year round and have been a super place for our children to safely play and explore. The views are stunning, you can see for miles across the rolling rural countryside and it’s been an important consideration to maximise this aspect throughout the design of the house.’
‘When we moved in the house had benefitted from the previous owners refurbishing the roof, windows and electrics, we decorated throughout and in 2022 extended both the main house and added the ensuite bedroom to the outbuilding. There is further potential to extend the first floor of the garage, currently boarded out and with power, to include annexe living accommodation for the existing en-suite bedroom or alternatively it would be a fantastic games room or large office.’
‘Our favourite room is the large family living room extension we added, we spend a lot of time in this part of the house and it was important to us that it had a strong sense of light and space and connected well with both the house and gardens. We feel this has been successfully achieved through the attractive, panelled archway to the dining room, huge bi-folding doors to the garden, two large picture windows and four sky lights; the cosy log-burner completes this beautiful room.’
‘Although we are in a rural location, the well served village of Sturton by Stow is within walking distance and we have convenient access to Lincoln and Gainsborough so it’s been a wonderful place to raise our young family.’
‘Moor Farm presents a huge range of possibilities, from an equestrian family home, to the exciting conversion of the Class Q Barn into a standalone dwelling and options for multigenerational living, holiday lets and rental accommodation, it has so much to offer and we look forward to seeing the direction the next owners take it.’
Location Set in a rural location yet within close proximity to the village of Sturton by Stow, Moor Farm lies equidistant (9 miles or a 10 to 15 minute drive) between the city of Lincoln to the southeast and Gainsborough to the northwest, both providing a wide range of shopping and amenities, and Lincoln with direct train services to London.
