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.

Jubilee Park is a popular recreational complex featuring a heated outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts, a cricket pitch and 10 acres of beautifully maintained gardens. Lincoln is a vibrant cathedral city with a rich history, centred around its magnificent cathedral, medieval castle, amazing museums, its steep hill and characterful cobbled streets. The city offers an excellent mix of independent boutiques, high-street retailers, cafés, restaurants, and coffee shops. Lincoln is also home to two universities and the New Theatre Royal, which hosts a varied programme of family entertainment, comedy, dance and live music.

An exemplary conversion of a historic, Grade II Listed and award winning home with its prominent tower proudly standing overlooking the surrounding rural, Lincolnshire landscape, a reminder of a bygone era but now forming part of a spectacular and unique home affording stunning views. The former windmill sits on around 2 acres of land and the flexible accommodation inside offers 4 to 5 bedrooms. With Lincoln about 20 minutes north and Sleaford around 15 minutes south, there is a wide choice of excellent schools in the area whilst the A1 is about half an hour away, and a neighbouring village has its own train station with connections to fast services to London, Edinburgh and elsewhere. The mill was built in 1827 and had four sails. It began as a 5-storey mill but was later raised to become 6-storey, probably when it was adjoined to a steam mill in 1842. It worked until 1912 and was dismantled soon afterwards. The buildings either side no longer existed when I came here in 2002 and the tower was completely empty, open to the sky above. Old photographs show the mill with a square chimney that was even taller than the tower itself! It was since reduced greatly in height and now still exists as the chimney to our inglenook fireplace. Planning allowed building onto the footprint of the old, so we created the two wings either side of the tower and added a new porch, very similar to the original one. All the windows in the wings are timber, double-glazed sash. We wanted to keep the tower in the spirit of its original use so have created an industrial feel with exposed brick walls in the bottom half although the top floors have been insulated and lined. The round entrance hall has been laid with reclaimed timber boards in an octagonal pattern and the curving, steel-framed staircase with timber balustrading and treads was created by a local fabricator to a unique design. All the principal rooms are light, airy and spacious with all the bedrooms double and there are superb views from every floor. The vaulted ceilings in the bedrooms enhance the sense of space and the exposed timbers lend character. There are four bedrooms on the first floor but there is a good deal of flexibility in the use of rooms. For instance, a bedroom or two could be created in the tower particularly since there is a bathroom on the fourth floor. The second floor has the lovely landing stage surrounding it with two sets of French doors opening onto it. The floor above I have been using as an office. Despite the rural location, we do actually have full fibre broadband to the property so there are very fast internet speeds. We built in cabling for surround sound speakers in the main living room on the ground floor so we can enjoy it as a cinema with one of the walls becoming the screen. There are three sets of French windows onto the rear garden which is lovely in summer. A terrace stretches the whole width of the property and receives sun the majority of the day. Although rural, the village is just a quarter of a mile away where there is a pub/restaurant and Metheringham is only 3 miles away which has various shops and services including a Co-op, a post office and even a train station on the Peterborough to Lincoln line. Sleaford is our nearest town about 8 miles away where there are very good schools, and Lincoln is about a 20 minute drive. Woodhall Spa is a lovely place, only 15 minutes away and the unusual Kinema in the Woods is highly recommended, and where we always go to the cinema! Location The Windmill is just outside the village of Scopwick which is about 8 miles north of Sleaford and 11 miles south of Lincoln. In the Domesday Book of 1086 it is recorded as having a church and 6 mills, with the Old English name 'Scapeuic' meaning sheep farm. Now, it is a small rural community with Scopwick Holy Cross Church, a village hall, and a highly-rated pub, The Royal Oak, serving food. Nearby Metheringham offers a wide range of facilities including several village stores and pubs/restaurants, a fish and chip shop, a takeaway, a children's nursery, a vets' practice and a doctors' surgery. The village railway station connects directly with Lincoln, Sleaford and Peterborough. Around a 15 minute drive, is the characterful inland resort of Woodhall Spa famous for The National Golf Centre with its Hotchkin heathland course, one of the top in the world. The town also offers a wonderful selection of independent shops, tea rooms, restaurants as well as the unique Kinema in the Woods and the superb outdoor heated swimming pool at Jubilee Park. The Petwood Hotel is steeped in British history, once home to the legendary 617 'Dambusters' squadron, and provides award-winning food, afternoon tea and special events surrounded by acres of beautifully landscaped gardens. The historic and vibrant Cathedral City of Lincoln provides a comprehensive range of shopping, dining, and cultural amenities. The two most notable attractions are the spectacular 11th century Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle at the heart of the city's cultural Cathedral Quarter. The city has two universities, and the rich aviation history of Lincolnshire can be explored further at the International Bomber Command Visitor Centre. Schools The closest primary school is in Metheringham (3 miles) and is rated Good by Ofsted whilst sought after secondary schools are in Sleaford, around a 15 minute drive. These include the grammar schools Carre's Grammar School and Kesteven & Sleaford High School (for Girls), as well as St. George's Academy, all Ofsted rated Good. In Lincoln, about 11 miles north (15-20 mins), there is the Ofsted rated Outstanding LSST Priory Academy and the superb independent Minister Schools, both Prep and Senior.

Polished concrete flooring continues throughout, reinforcing the clean and cohesive design language of the house. During the warmer months, the living spaces open naturally onto the terrace, creating a seamless extension of the interior and an exceptional setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Located just off the main kitchen, the prep kitchen adds further practicality with additional fitted cabinetry, preparation areas, a full height freezer, drinks fridge and further storage space. Positioned within one wing of the home, the lounge offers a quieter and more intimate setting, framed by full height glazing that captures uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside. Adjacent is a well-appointed utility room with extensive fitted storage, roof glazing and direct access through to the double garage. The opposing wing has been designed with flexibility in mind and currently incorporates a gym and separate home office. French doors and bi fold glazing allow both spaces to open directly onto the gardens, while a secondary entrance hall and cloakroom WC create excellent potential for independent living, guest accommodation or annexe use if required. The first floor continues the home’s emphasis on volume, natural light and carefully framed outlooks. A picture window on the landing draws in views towards the front aspect, while the vaulted principal bedroom suite combines dramatic glazing with refined interior detailing. Full height windows to both side and rear aspects overlook the gardens and surrounding countryside, while a freestanding bath has been positioned specifically to enjoy the setting. The suite also includes a walk in dressing room with fitted cabinetry and an en-suite shower room. Bedroom two features far reaching rear views together with en-suite facilities, while bedroom three incorporates full height glazing and an upper level designed to maximise both perspective and natural light. Bedroom four also includes views towards the front and rear aspect via full height windows, while bedroom five is a generous double room overlooking the rear gardens. These bedrooms are served by a contemporary four-piece family bathroom. Outside, the property occupies a private gated plot extending to approximately 0.75 acres. Electric gates open onto a substantial gravel driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles, alongside two EV charging points and a generous double garage with electric doors. The south facing gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to complement the surrounding setting, with expansive lawns, native tree planting and multiple seating areas carefully positioned to capture the far-reaching countryside views. A spacious sun terrace creates a superb setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and long summer evenings overlooking the surrounding countryside, while raised herb gardens, a gravelled seating area and hot tub terrace further enhance the lifestyle appeal of the space. The property also benefits from a range of solar panels.
