Description

Tucked away on the peaceful Lincolnshire-Norfolk border, Curlew Court is an exceptional barn conversion where timeless character blends effortlessly with contemporary living. Beautifully converted and impeccably presented, it offers a wonderful balance of impressive entertaining spaces and comfortable family living.

At its heart is a spectacular open-plan kitchen, where vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, elegant chandeliers and roof lanterns create a space filled with light and character. Twin sets of bi-folding doors open onto the garden, providing a seamless connection between inside and out, while sleek cabinetry and premium appliances ensure the kitchen is as practical as it is stylish.

The living accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to suit every occasion. The spacious dining room, complete with a contemporary wood burner, is perfect for hosting family and friends, while the sitting room offers a more relaxed setting with its own log burner. A separate snug, home office and generous utility room add further flexibility for modern lifestyles.

A ground-floor double bedroom with en-suite, positioned alongside an additional reception room, provides an ideal guest suite or an excellent arrangement for multi-generational living.

Upstairs, a striking galleried landing overlooks the barn's impressive architecture, leading to three generous double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite. The principal suite is particularly impressive, featuring a stylish dressing area and a luxurious bathroom.

Outside, the landscaped garden provide a variety of places to sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. A substantial workshop and two large open barns offer exceptional versatility, whether for hobbies, storage, a home business or future potential, subject to the necessary permissions.

Enjoying a wonderfully private rural setting while remaining within easy reach of local amenities and transport links, Curlew Court is a home of outstanding quality, offering space, character and versatility in equal measure.

SUTTON BRIDGE

Sutton Bridge is a charming village situated on the western bank of the River Nene, known as the ‘Gateway to Lincolnshire.’ Its picturesque marina, the Cross Keys Marina, offers recently developed moorings, making it an attractive spot for boating enthusiasts.

The village boasts a selection of local shops, including a Co-op supermarket, pubs, restaurants and essential amenities, providing convenience and a welcoming community atmosphere. A well-regarded primary school is within a 10-minute walk, making it ideal for families. There is also a medical centre within the village. Recreational activities include a local golf club and fishing along the River Nene.

Just 3 miles away is the market town of Long Sutton, offering a broader range of services, including shops, restaurants, and schools. For a more extensive range of amenities, the historic market town of Wisbech lies approximately 7 miles to the southeast. Here, you can enjoy a mix of independent and national retailers, theatre performances, farm shops, a swimming pool, and the highly regarded Wisbech Grammar School.

King’s Lynn, around 9 miles away, offers a mix of shopping, leisure, and cultural attractions. Among its highlights are a cinema, ten-pin bowling alley, football club, and a wide range of restaurants and shops. King’s Lynn also has excellent public services, including the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, a police station, a fire station, primary and secondary schools, a college, and a library. For those who commute, there is a mainline rail link from King’s Lynn, via Cambridge, to London King’s Cross, with a travel time of around 1 hour and 40 minutes.

Sutton Bridge’s combination of local charm, proximity to bustling towns, and excellent transport links makes it a desirable location for both families and individuals seeking a blend of rural and urban living.
