Tucked away along a quiet lane in the small, highly regarded village of Stockerston, Firs Farm is a hidden gem – a beautiful barn conversion offering peace, privacy and endless potential, all set within approximately 1.7 acres of gardens and paddock land (subject to measured survey). With protected countryside views, flexible living accommodation and a wonderful sense of history, it is a rare opportunity to acquire a property that offers both a charming country lifestyle and excellent proximity to Uppingham and the wider amenities of the area. The house itself forms part of what was once a traditional working dairy farm, originally dating back at least 250 years. In the mid-1980s, the barns were sensitively converted by a developer, preserving the authenticity of the buildings while creating a welcoming and liveable home.  The layout of the property is centred around a charming central south facing courtyard with a water feature, providing a beautiful outlook from several rooms and a calming heart to the home. The main reception room is a lovely space, enjoying dual aspects and views towards the garden, while the kitchen and dining room sit adjacent, offering practical and sociable spaces with doors that flow naturally to the courtyard outside. The kitchen itself, fitted in a classic style, is both practical and characterful, with a bay window looking onto the courtyard and fields beyond. The principal bedroom suite is particularly generous, comprising a spacious double bedroom, dressing area  and large en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms are located nearby, both doubles, one en-suite the other with a dedicated shower room, providing flexibility for family living or guest accommodation. Additionally, there are three further rooms currently used as studies but easily adaptable to further bedrooms if desired. This adaptability is reflected across the property, which could readily evolve to suit the changing needs of a growing family, those seeking multi-generational living, or simply purchasers requiring ample room to work from home. One of the highlights of Firs Farm is the wing of the house containing the beautiful garden room – once the old dairy building – a stunning space with exposed original beams and feature windows, a real connection to the property’s agricultural past.  Externally, Firs Farm continues to impress. The grounds, extending to approximately 1.7 acres (subject to measured survey), include a formal lawned garden dotted with mature trees, borders and shrubs, established fruit trees, a large enclosed paddock with its own entrance off Church Lane and the central courtyard. There is a stable block offering three stables with an attached large car port and barns to the rear. An attached garage providing secure parking and additional storage. Over the years, the land has been used in a variety of ways, including grazing for sheep and ponies, and it would lend itself beautifully to small-scale/hobby equestrian use or simple enjoyment as part of a country lifestyle. The setting is truly idyllic. The paddock enjoys wonderful views across open fields towards Stockerston Hall and the property is remarkably private, hidden from view and approached via a long curving old farm driveway, offering a sense of seclusion that is increasingly rare to find. * The below plan is indicative only and illustrates an alternative layout, subject to planning permission.   Disclaimer: These property details, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

Approached along a quiet stretch of Barrowden Road and set high above the Welland Valley, The Windmill is one of those rare Rutland landmarks that is instantly recognisable from afar yet unexpectedly comfortable and practical once inside its gates. Combining a Grade II listed four storey windmill with a substantial modern brick house and around fifteen acres of gardens, pasture and woodland, the property brings together architectural character, flexible living space and an established equestrian setup within a single coherent holding. The position is central to its appeal. From the house and windmill there are wide views across open countryside towards Stamford, Rutland Water and the surrounding villages of the Welland Valley, while mature planting and shelter belts around the immediate garden create a surprisingly private and protected domestic setting close to the house itself. It is a property that balances exposure and outlook with enclosure and comfort in a way that is difficult to achieve in open countryside locations. Although the windmill forms the visual centrepiece, the principal living accommodation sits within the adjoining brick-built house constructed in 1997 and designed to work as a practical family home. The two structures connect at ground floor level and again externally at first floor via balconies, allowing them either to operate as a single integrated residence or as two clearly defined but related living environments. Inside the house the arrangement is generous and adaptable, with four reception rooms providing a range of settings for daily life. The kitchen and informal sitting area form the natural centre of activity and benefit from morning light through recently installed powder coated aluminium windows and doors. These were replaced throughout the house in 2023 and bring both improved performance and reduced maintenance requirements. The kitchen itself has been extended in its layout since the present owner’s arrival and now works as a sociable everyday space as well as a practical working environment, with underfloor heating continuing through the adjoining snug area. Beyond this core living space there is a separate ground floor sitting room currently arranged as a television room, together with a further reception room used as a study capable of accommodating multiple workstations. A gym positioned adjacent to the integral garage adds another practical and versatile element to the ground floor layout. A particularly striking feature of the house is the large first floor sitting room which opens onto balconies through full height glazed doors and takes full advantage of the long southerly views across the valley. This elevated reception space gives the house an additional dimension and allows the landscape setting to become part of the experience of living here. Across the upper floor the bedroom accommodation is arranged around a principal suite and guest suite each with their own en suite facilities, together with two further bedrooms served by a family bathroom. The layout provides a balance between privacy and connection that works equally well for family occupation or visiting guests. Adjoining the house, the four-storey windmill provides a second independent living environment that significantly extends the flexibility of the property. Dating originally from the eighteenth century and rebuilt from the ground up in 1968 as a reconstruction of the earlier windmill, the structure remains one of the defining features of the local skyline. Although its internal milling machinery was removed when it was converted to residential use, the windmill retains its distinctive external form complete with sails, which are maintained and rotated periodically to ensure their long-term stability. Arranged as a self-contained two-bedroom cottage, the windmill has historically been used both as family accommodation and as a holiday let. More recently it has been made available selectively for short-term letting and continues to offer potential either as guest accommodation, income producing space or multigenerational living depending on requirements. A particularly distinctive feature of the windmill interior is the recently installed handmade kitchen which follows the natural curve of the structure itself and includes a curved central table designed specifically for the space. It reflects the unusual geometry of the building and reinforces the sense that this is a place shaped around its architecture rather than adapted to fit it. Outside, the grounds extend to approximately fifteen acres arranged in a ring-fenced block surrounding the house and windmill. Around six thousand native trees were planted by previous owners to create an arboretum style landscape that now forms an established framework of shelter belts, orchard planting and specimen trees across the holding. Within this setting the immediate gardens around the house include an extensive timber decked entertaining terrace connected directly to the dining room and designed as a principal outdoor social space overlooking the gardens, together with a circular sunken garden planted with fruit trees and soft fruit and a productive vegetable garden that continues to be actively cultivated. Beyond the formal gardens the land opens into pasture divided into dedicated paddocks which have been significantly enhanced during the present ownership. Three paddocks now provide structured grazing rotation and are equipped with independent water supplies and electric fencing, supported by a professionally constructed outdoor manège measuring approximately 22 x 40 metres and installed with full drainage. Additional stable buildings have also been introduced so that the existing block now includes multiple stables together with tack and storage space. A separate access track has been formed to the rear stable yard allowing practical movement of horses and equipment without affecting the domestic garden setting. In addition to the principal approach drive, two further access points are available directly from adopted roads, providing useful alternative entry to the land and equestrian areas. Together these improvements mean the land now supports genuine equestrian use rather than simply providing additional acreage. There is also flexibility within the current arrangements for the stables and grazing to be let independently if desired, creating potential for either shared use or supplementary income. At the eastern side of the holding the front meadow is managed as a wildflower area and cut periodically for hay, maintaining its ecological character while ensuring it remains productive. To the west lies a further two acre woodland area which adds variety and shelter to the landscape and contributes to the overall sense of scale and privacy across the property. Energy performance has also been addressed through the installation of photovoltaic panels together with battery storage systems, helping to reduce reliance on grid electricity and supporting efficient day to day running of the house. An electric vehicle charging point is also installed. Despite its rural character the location remains well connected. Morcott and Barrowden both offer active village communities with local amenities including shop, surgery and public house, while the market towns of Uppingham, Oakham and Stamford provide a wider range of schooling, shopping and cultural facilities within easy reach. Road links via the A47, A43 and A1 connect efficiently to the regional network and rail services from Peterborough offer journey times to London Kings Cross from around forty five minutes. Rutland Water lies nearby to the north and provides opportunities for sailing, walking and cycling, reinforcing the strong relationship between the property and its wider landscape setting. Taken as a whole, The Windmill offers a combination that is rarely available within a single holding. The presence of a landmark historic structure, a substantial and adaptable modern house, established equestrian infrastructure and around fifteen acres of landscaped grounds creates a property capable of supporting a wide range of lifestyles. Whether used primarily as a family house with guest accommodation, a multigenerational home, an equestrian base or a combination of all three, it is a setting that balances individuality with practicality and visibility with privacy in equal measure.   Disclaimer: These property details, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

Nestled just beyond the historic village of Kings Cliffe and adjacent to a remarkable ancient quarry, now a stunning protected landscape – whose stone was once used to build cathedrals and stately homes – The Stables is an exceptional barn conversion that blends timeless character with the finest in modern living. This now-protected landscape offers not only natural beauty but a unique and storied backdrop to an extraordinary home. Completed in 2021, this meticulously executed conversion has transformed a former agricultural building into a striking, light-filled residence, where architectural integrity and original features – such as exposed oak beams, cornerstones, and vaulted ceilings – have been seamlessly preserved. The result is a harmonious fusion of heritage and high-specification design. Thoughtful glazing throughout the living areas makes the most of the views of the beautifully landscaped garden, increase the feeling of space and light and allow an easy flow between inside and out, whilst the semi-open plan design of the main living areas is well suited to contemporary life. The home offers predominantly lateral living, with all principal reception spaces and three of the four bedrooms situated on the ground floor for ease and accessibility. Upon entering, you’re welcomed by a harmonious palette of natural tones and an abundance of daylight that floods the interiors, enhanced by multiple Velux windows. The result is a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. At the heart of the home lies a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining area, fitted with high-quality bespoke cabinetry and premium appliances and a sizeable island with breakfast bar – an ideal setting for entertaining and family gatherings. Adjacent to this space is a formal reception room with a feature cylinder wood burner that provides a warm and serene ambiance. Both rooms are enjoying vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and framed by a wall of French doors that open onto the patio terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A further reception room – currently serving as a TV snug – offers flexibility for use as a home office or study. Practical elements are equally well considered, with a separate utility room located just off the kitchen, along with a guest WC. The bedroom accommodation is thoughtfully separated from the main living areas to ensure peace and privacy. Three bedrooms, including the principal suite with its own en suite shower room, are arranged on the ground floor alongside the beautifully appointed family bathroom. A fourth bedroom – currently used as a home office complete with bespoke fitted furniture – is tucked away on the first floor, offering a quiet and private workspace or guest room as needed. Set within a quality development of four individual barn conversions, the property is accessed via a shared drive that leads through private electric double gates to a private gravel parking area, adjacent to an English Heritage timber garage and workshop. The boundaries are clearly defined by retaining walls topped with tall hedges, ensuring seclusion and privacy. The garden is a sunny retreat designed for low maintenance, featuring a beautifully manicured lawn, raised vegetable beds, an Alitex greenhouse, and a generous patio terrace that runs the full length of the house – perfectly positioned for alfresco dining and capturing the last golden rays of the evening sun. Positioned less than a mile from the heart of Kings Cliffe, the property enjoys a peaceful, semi-rural location without sacrificing convenience. Kings Cliffe itself is a highly desirable village, known for its attractive stone architecture and excellent amenities, including a primary school, post office and village store, bakery, greengrocer, doctors’ surgery, a characterful pub with dining and rooms, and a newly built community sports centre. Set along the Willow Brook in rolling countryside, the area offers numerous walking trails and a strong sense of community. The location is exceptionally well connected, with the A1, A47, and A43 all easily accessible. The market towns of Stamford, Oundle and Uppingham are each within a 15-minute drive, while Peterborough – with direct trains to London in approximately 50 minutes – is just 20 minutes away.   Disclaimer: These property details, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

The charming little village of Manton close to the southern shores of Rutland Water, is strewn with listed buildings, in the heart of which is the magnificent Old Hall graced with a fine early eighteenth century façade but dating back to 1688, as stated on a rear gable. The three-storey stone residence and its adjoining outbuildings provide an extraordinary amount of accommodation all presented in immaculate order, sumptuously decorated to the highest of standards with impeccable attention to detail. In a quiet and private position nestling between neighbours but shielded by mature trees, the walled gardens are verdant, sunny sanctuaries including an impressive summerhouse overlooking a heated outdoor pool. All the reception rooms are of fine proportions: an impressively large but welcoming reception hall, a drawing room with original panelling, a dining room with mahogany panelling fitted approximately 18 years ago by members of the Guild of Master Craftsmen, a generous snug past which is a glamorously fitted kitchen that leads directly into the beautiful garden room. Beyond this, all with extraordinarily high ceilings, a large utility room takes you on into a games room, a print room housing a spiral staircase and a study at the far end benefitting an almost entire wall of glazing over the garden. Further rooms above reached up the spiral staircase are currently used as a gym and another office providing versatile spaces for whatever your needs. The main staircase and the back staircase both rise to the first and second floors. The first floor contains five generous double bedrooms, two en suite, one lined with original panelling, and a family bathroom. The second floor offers a number of rooms that are used as storage but could be refurbished to create five further double bedrooms plus a bathroom and there is another large room at the top of the back stairs. The masterfully landscaped garden is very sheltered and private within high stone walls. Set out on split levels that encompass the house, it gives an appealing mix of formality combined with soft plantings. A fitting Italianate style pervades the front where the symmetric fine stone façade clad in wisteria stands behind the gravelled entrance bordered by tall cypress columns, palms and fig trees. On the south side of the house, an iron gate opens into a charming brick-paved garden in dappled shade with an octagonal summerhouse at the sunny, gravelled far end. Steps lead down into the garden room where more French doors opposite open into the main part of the garden. Here, a large lawn bearing some magnificent mature trees stretches down to the pool area where an oval gazebo provides shade in this particularly sunny corner and an olive and a cloud tree are striking features. A decorative ironwork pergola supports abundant pretty climbers down the side of the property leading to a tiered fountain at the end. On a higher level, a timber pergola-covered walkway curves round the top of a retaining wall delineating the vegetable garden with its geometric-shaped interlocking beds. A recently built garage is to the rear of the property behind the swimming pool and is accessed down a separate driveway, through automatic timber gates and entered through electrically operated doors. A useful shower, WC and sauna at the back of the building are conveniently close to the pool area.   Disclaimer: These property details, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

A substantial garage and extensive driveway provide ample parking for numerous vehicles. Seller Insight When we first arrived at Mole End, we fell in love with the whole setting: the village of Molesworth, the sense of space and the sheer potential of the site. The house wasn’t in the best condition at the time, but we could immediately see what it could become and what it could offer as a home. Since then, we have renovated every room, extending to both the rear and side to create a wonderfully generous layout that suits modern life. The heart of the house is the open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, where we spend most of our time. It overlooks the garden and is filled with light all day long, making it perfect for cooking, eating, dancing, playing games, or simply relaxing together. For winter evenings, we love retreating to the separate lounge, particularly at Christmas with the fire lit, a festive movie on and a truly atmospheric sense of cosiness. Mole End has been an incredible home for entertaining, from large gatherings to children’s birthdays, pool parties, darts in the games room and relaxed evenings with friends. Outside, the transformation has been just as dramatic. What was once an overgrown garden with a disused swimming pool is now a beautifully landscaped space, with the pool relined and multiple seating areas created for different moods and views. There is an orchard and beyond that, woodland at the end of the garden with paddocks and open fields stretching out behind. Muntjac deer, pheasants and squirrels are regular visitors. Being on a no through-road with no streetlights in the village, the peace and the night skies above the property are exceptional, too. With easy access to the A14, village events at the hall, great local schools and endless dog walks across surrounding fields, Molesworth has offered everything we could want: space, nature, community and calm. Leaving Mole End will be a real wrench. Village Information Molesworth is a highly regarded and well-positioned village surrounded by open countryside. It offers a parish church, active village hall, Millennium playing field and tennis courts. Local amenities, shops and schools are available in the nearby market towns of Kimbolton and Thrapston, with primary schooling available just over a mile away in Brington, feeding into the well-regarded Hinchingbrooke School in Huntingdon. The village enjoys excellent connectivity, with the A1, A428 and the upgraded A14 all easily accessible. Rail services to London are available from Huntingdon, St Neots and Bedford. Stansted, Luton and East Midlands airports can each be reached in just over an hour. The nearby historic town of Kimbolton offers a wide range of facilities, including a supermarket, health centre, dentist, veterinary practice, independent shops, cafes and one of the region’s leading private schools.

Few properties exist that genuinely redefine what a home can be. Lakeside Lodge is one of them. A one-of-a-kind, four-bedroom barn conversion of extraordinary quality, set within approximately 1.72 acres of meticulously landscaped grounds in the peaceful rural hamlet of Shangton, Leicestershire. From the moment the electric gates open and the driveway unfolds before you, it becomes clear that this is something entirely exceptional — a home that seamlessly blends architectural character, natural beauty and refined contemporary living in a setting that simply cannot be replicated. The property offers a private lake, a magnificent large terrace, sweeping lawns, a commercially rated barn with workshop, a separate studio, two en-suites, a family bathroom and three generous reception rooms. Planning permission has furthermore been granted (Ref: 24/01159/FUL) for a fifth bedroom above the existing lounge — an exciting opportunity to further elevate this already outstanding residence. This is countryside living at its absolute finest. Accommodation The property is entered via a glazed door into a welcoming entrance hall with useful storage. To the right, the sitting room is a wonderfully comfortable space featuring a large bay window and French doors to the front elevation, framing stunning views across the lawns and lake. A feature fireplace with exposed brick surround, timber mantel and log burner inset creates a superb focal point. To the left of the entrance lies the impressive open-plan living, dining and kitchen space — a light-filled, statement room benefiting from two sets of bi-folding doors to the front elevation, skylights above and a glazed door off the kitchen to the rear courtyard garden. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, with fitted cupboards and drawers, granite worktops, a Belfast sink, an electric Range and a generous island unit providing further storage and a breakfast bar. There is space and plumbing for both a dishwasher and an American-style fridge freezer. Steps rise to the sitting area, which features a stunning vaulted ceiling with exposed King Trusses and a magnificent Inglenook fireplace with exposed brickwork, timber mantel and log burner inset. A good-sized storage cupboard is also found off this area. Steps lead from the sitting area into an inner hallway giving access to the bedroom accommodation. Two well-proportioned bedrooms both benefit from French doors opening to the front elevation and share a family bathroom. The master bedroom suite is situated at the far end of the property and benefits from French doors to the front elevation, a dressing area with fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious ensuite comprising a wash hand basin, WC, rainfall shower and freestanding bath. French doors from the dressing area also open out to the private rear courtyard garden. Off the kitchen to the rear, a further inner hallway provides access to a utility room and WC with space and plumbing for white goods, along with additional cupboard storage. Stairs rise to the fourth bedroom — a generously proportioned room with four skylights, built-in wardrobes and eaves storage, served by a private ensuite shower room. Planning Permission — Fifth Bedroom Planning permission has been granted under reference 24/01159/FUL for the creation of a fifth bedroom above the existing lounge, designed by Ellis Architectural Design. The approved plans (Drawing No: SE/1545/2b) show a first floor bedroom with grey finish double glazed doors and a Juliet balcony to the front elevation, enjoying what will be an outstanding elevated view over the front gardens, sweeping lawns and private lake — a truly special addition to an already remarkable home. Prospective purchasers should refer to the approved planning drawings for full specification details. The Grounds — An Outdoor Setting Like No Other The exterior of Lakeside Lodge is every bit as impressive as the interior. A magnificent large porcelain patio terrace sweeps across the front of the property — a premium outdoor entertaining space on a grand scale, beautifully finished with multi-level steps, natural stone raised beds, specimen planting and integrated lighting. The terrace connects directly to the bi-folding doors of the main reception space, creating a seamless flow between inside and out that is perfect for entertaining, al fresco dining or simply enjoying the remarkable surroundings. Beyond the terrace, generous sweeping lawns stretch between the house and the lake — a wonderful expanse of open green space that adds to the sense of scale and freedom that defines this remarkable property, and provides an idyllic setting for families and outdoor living throughout the seasons. The private lake is simply magical. Complete with a timber rope-railed walkway bridge leading to a charming central island platform, it is a living, breathing feature that attracts abundant wildlife and changes beautifully with every season. A lakeside decked area with sun loungers provides the perfect spot to sit back and absorb the extraordinary peace of this setting. To the rear, a private tiered courtyard garden has been thoughtfully designed including a greenhouse. A productive and beautiful space with complete seclusion and a sheltered sun trap. Parking is provided for four or more vehicles with ease, with a gravelled area adjacent to the barn and a separate block-paved driveway leading to the house. The outside areas are covered by Security cameras. The Studio / Office This separate outbuilding currently operating as an art studio measures approximately 19'1 x 10'8 (5.82m x 3.24m). It has been built to residential standards and has water, electricity and internet services, making it an ideal multi purpose feature of the property. The Barn — A Remarkable Commercial Asset with Long-Term Potential Beyond the main residence, the substantial barn represents a truly compelling additional asset. Registered as a commercial property and currently zero-rated for council tax purposes, it sits on its own title with an independent water supply, electricity supply and also internet service making it a remarkably self-sufficient and versatile proposition. The barn provides approximately 39'4 x 39'4 (12.00m x 12.00m) of commercial floor space alongside a workshop of approximately 26'11 x 12'6 (8.20m x 3.80m). Whether utilised for business, creative, storage or leisure purposes, this facility offers a breadth of possibilities that sets this property apart from virtually anything else on the market.
