Conveniently situated in Colsterworth, about halfway between Stamford and Grantham, and a little over a minute from the A1, Spring Lane Barns is a wonderful 6-bedroom family home. The attractive, friendly village is an ideal choice for professional people who need easy access to London combined with the joys of the countryside. The property is set at the top of a very good size plot which is approximately two acres*. From here the land drops down towards the River Witham with the boundary lines on the River Banks. The views are stunning and far reaching. The accommodation on offer is generous and flexible and would provide any family with a place they would be proud to call call and could be arranged to suit any requirements needed. It is currently arranged over three levels and consists of six bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms. Highlights of this include a remarkable reception room which measures 31'4" x 16" and has beamed vaulted ceilings. There is also a lower ground lounge with French doors opening out to take in the views and a log burner. A substantial shingle driveway provides parking for a large number of vehicles. At the top of the lane, the White Lion is a well-run village pub and restaurant. There is a well-stocked CO-OP and separate village shop, the doctor's surgery is near the pub. Colsterworth is a very friendly village with a variety of clubs and various village events throughout the year. The house is also only a few steps from the Church and this beautiful building including the spire can be seen from most of the property and makes a simply breath taking backdrop. The surrounding countryside is extremely attractive and peaceful, Lincolnshire being famous for its vast skies. The long hedge-lined country roads around the village are perfect for exploring by bicycle or on foot. Rutland Water, just down the A1, is a favourite spot for water sports, fishing and picnics. The Easton Walled Gardens country estate is on the far side of the A1. Very well connected, main line railway stations at nearby Grantham and at Peterborough provide frequent direct train services to London Kings Cross (68 minutes and 45 minutes respectively). Road links from Colsterworth are excellent, providing access in minutes to the market towns of Grantham and Stamford via the A1, and roads east-west run to Bourne and Melton Mowbray. The A52 links Grantham to Nottingham and Boston. First-class schooling is on hand; in addition to the famous independent schools at Oakham, Uppingham and Oundle, with Stamford School being even closer at hand, there is a grammar school at Bourne and Newton's own grammar school, the Kings School at Grantham, founded in 1528. The Church of England primary school in the village has a good Ofsted rating, other nearby options being at Buckminster, Great Ponton and Corby Glen, these also having good Ofsted ratings.
