Description

At the end of a long tree lined track, The Moat House is a substantial country property set in 6 acres of garden and paddocks. Dating from the mid 19th century with later additions, it provides five spacious reception rooms with a wood burner or a feature fireplace in four of them. The fifth is currently used as a home office. The farmhouse style kitchen blends modern integral appliances with a traditional AGA and there is a second kitchen / utility room. Upstairs there are six double bedrooms, a dressing room and four bath / shower rooms. The layout would be very suitable for self contained / multi generational living.

Outside there is a double garage, a stable block, a large brick built Victorian barn and further outbuildings. The grounds extend to 6.4 acres, comprising formal gardens, a small orchard and a rose garden together with a stable yard and three interconnecting paddocks.

The village of Bardney, aprox 3 miles away, boasts plenty of amenities incl. shops, supermarket, cafe, public houses, and a primary school. The market towns of Horncastle and Woodhall Spa are nearby, providing more facilities including secondary and Grammar schools. The Cathedral and University City of Lincoln, with mainline train service to London, is just a 20 minute drive.
