The Old Vicarage is a charming family home nestled in the peaceful village of Lissington. Approached via an impressive tree-lined driveway, this beautiful 19th-century property enjoys a picture-postcard setting with delightful views of the Lincolnshire countryside. Full of charm and original detail, with an eclectic mix of Regency and early Victorian style, the house retains the elegant proportions and period features characteristic of a property of this era, including tall sash windows and original fireplaces. Large windows fill the interiors with natural light, creating bright, welcoming living spaces. The ground floor features five elegant reception rooms, a generous country kitchen and a versatile east wing with excellent conversion potential for multigenerational living or guest accommodation (subject to planning). Upstairs, the principal suite boasts an en-suite bathroom and a separate dressing room, complemented by five/six further bedrooms, a family shower room, and a separate WC. Outside, the classically landscaped garden wraps around the house, providing a wonderfully private and calm setting. Sweeping lawns, colourful borders, winding paths and secluded terraces create the perfect backdrop for outdoor entertaining or simply relaxing on a summer's evening. Despite its rural setting next to open farmland and the village church, The Old Vicarage is conveniently placed for everyday amenities. The market town of Market Rasen is just four miles away, while the historic cathedral city of Lincoln is within easy reach, offering an excellent choice of shopping, dining, culture and leisure activities. Combining timeless period character with generous, versatile accommodation, The Old Vicarage presents a rare opportunity to own an exceptional family home. Sellers insights As soon as we first viewed the house, we knew it was the perfect home for our family. We've loved living here ever since. We hear pheasants and owls, as well as a myriad of other birds and we know there are hedgehogs in the garden. The Old Vicarage is also a wonderful place for parties and family get-togethers. Our grandchildren have grown up here, spending many happy hours playing football and badminton in the garden, enjoying treasure hunts, and picking fruit in the orchard. On a summer's evening, there's nothing better than sitting on the terrace, listening to the birdsong, looking out across the open countryside and enjoying the big Lincolnshire skies.We had the gardens professionally designed, and we've invested a great deal of time in developing them. Each year, the garden produces an abundance of fruit, including delicious Nashi pears and damsons that are perfect for making homemade jam. For gardeners, there are excellent garden centres nearby, as well as local gardening clubs and open gardens to explore. The village is very friendly, with wonderful neighbours who will stop for a chat to catch up on local news. We must also mention our postie, who knows everyone by name and does so much for the community. Lincolnshire is a hidden gem. This area is wonderfully unspoilt, with beautiful countryside on the doorstep and the coast within easy reach. We've enjoyed countless walks with our dogs through the Wolds and surrounding area. There are lots of great places to visit too. Our visitors are always awestruck by Lincoln Cathedral, while nearby Lincoln Castle houses one of the original copies of Magna Carta. The world-famous quaint Steep Hill in Lincoln dates from Roman times and was voted 'prettiest street in Britain'. The very extensive Hemswell Antiques Centre is another popular destination, attracting visitors from around the world. Doddington Hall is well worth a visit not only for its beautiful house and gardens, but also for its excellent café and farm shop, which sells superb produce. Every Christmas, we buy our turkey and Christmas tree there. At Grimsby docks, you can buy a selection of fresh, smoked and frozen fish. Closer to home, there are lots of great shops in Market Rasen and Lincoln. Several supermarkets deliver to our village. You'll also find some great village pubs locally. We're moving to be closer to our grandchildren. We'll be very sad to leave this fantastic Lissington home and our lovely neighbours after 26 years. However, we're sure the new custodians of the Old Vicarage will make just as many happy memories here as we have.

House with pool and garden Martin (United Kingdom)
Set on the edge of the sought-after village of Martin, The Manor House is an impressive Grade II Listed Georgian home in an idyllic setting, with established gardens and far-reaching views across the Lincolnshire countryside. Full of period character, the house is complemented by a stunning detached Coach House offering excellent income potential. The principal reception rooms provide welcoming spaces for entertaining, relaxing and everyday family life, where elegant proportions, high-ceilinged rooms and beautifully preserved Georgian architectural details reflect the home's rich history and character. At the heart of the home are a generous farmhouse kitchen and a light-filled garden room, while the south-facing bedrooms enjoy breathtaking views across the gardens and open countryside. The gardens are every bit as captivating as the house, with an orchard, mature trees, wildflower areas, two ponds and a small, wooded area creating a wonderfully natural setting. Seating areas within the grounds offer tranquil places to relax and unwind. Beyond the main house, the Coach House offers an impressive and flexible two-storey space. Currently operating as a successful holiday let, The Coach House would equally suit multigenerational living or could provide an ideal studio, workshop or home office, subject to the necessary consents. Steeped in history and surrounded by stunning countryside, The Manor House offers a rare opportunity to acquire a handsome Georgian home with remarkable character, a fascinating history, generous space and a peaceful village setting, just 14 miles from Lincoln. Seller Insights We love the feeling of space here. The house has such a light and airy feel, yet it's also steeped in history, with wonderful period features that give it so much character. The Manor House has a fascinating history, and we've done lots of research about the property and local area over the years. We believe the main house dates from the early 1790s and was built for a well-known local family that owned much of the surrounding land. The exposed beams, original fireplaces and beautiful architectural details all provide subtle clues of the history. The Manor House was home to around 30 members of the Women's Land Army during the Second World War, and over the years we've had the pleasure of welcoming a couple of them back to visit. It was fascinating to hear their memories of living and working here. More recently, the house served as a fine dining restaurant in the 1970s before we turned the property back into a private home in the early 1990s. We converted the former stables into the Coach House in 2007, creating two holiday accommodation units. Our restoration focused on creating eco-friendly accommodation, using traditional methods and natural materials. There's also a large open coach room with its own kitchen, as well as the original stables. I've run cookery and craft classes in this space and a small local history museum, but it could just as easily become a studio, home office or even additional accommodation, subject to the necessary consents. The gardens are a real delight with a superb vegetable growing area and various different parts to explore perfect as a play area for children. We've also got those amazing rural views from the garden and many parts of the house. There are many community activities in Martin. The church holds events and the village hall hosts everything from exercise classes and coffee mornings to our local heritage society, which we've enjoyed being part of. The pub has an excellent reputation for food, and the play park near the school is one of the best for miles around. Lincolnshire has so much to offer. There are beautiful walks, quiet country lanes for cycling and plenty of opportunities for birdwatching in the local area. Yet, the village is just a few miles from Woodhall Spa, with its independent shops, cafés and restaurants; Jubilee Park, with its outdoor pool, and Kinema are among our many favourite places to visit. Lincoln is also a beautiful cathedral city.
