Description

This is an incredibly rare opportunity to create a unique home of distinction with real and heritage and history in a beautiful and unspoiled rural countryside location.

Location
The property lies in open countryside in an Area of Great Landscape Value close to the small village of Panton, 5 miles east of Wragby at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds. The market towns of Horncastle (9 miles) and Louth (13 miles) offer excellent traditional shopping and other facilities and the county capital of Lincoln with its railway station (with direct connections to London) is only 16 miles away. The postcode is LN8 5LQ and the property is currently accessed from the Benniworth Road.

Description
The brick barns lie in a traditional south facing "U" shape and are sold in 8 acres of mainly grassland which runs to the road junction allowing the purchaser to construct a new direct access.The buildings are in poor condition, but the original brickwork and roof structure can be seen. Over the last 20 years attempts have been made to get permission for a sustainable alternative use so that urgent works of renovation can be justified. This has now been achieved through Application No: S/044/02201/18.The barns were part of the Panton Estate owned by the Turnor family until a two day sale in 1917. A copy of the photograph from 1917 particulars is shown below.

The Buildings
The buildings total 8,100 sq ft and include:-a/b/c/ A brick built Grade II listed barn circa 1777, attributed to William Legg, architect for the Turnor family, having a 2 storey height middle section with dressed slate roof over 18" wide brick walls, flanked on either side by single storey pantiled stables (Approximately 2000 sq ft)d/ A corner range built in brick under part slate/pantile roof with north facing cart sheds and south facing stables (Approximately 1800 sq ft)e/ A corner range built in brick under an asbestos roof comprising workshop and stores (Approximately 1500 sq ft)f/ A brick and asbestos barn with granary over two floors with stone steps (Approximately 1600 sq ft)g/ A brick and pantiled full height Georgian barn with drive through gangway (Approximately 1200 sq ft)The main buildings are of substantial construction, having 18" solid brick walls and a good quality thin Georgian brick well laid with lime mortar. However all buildings are in poor condition, some roofs entirely collapsed and rafters exposed to the elements. There are currently more recent agricultural buildings close to the barns which are to be demolished and removed by the Vendor.
