Manor Farm Rise, Wellow, Newark

A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional and beautifully appointed barn conversion, enviably positioned within a charming, tranquil setting and enjoying delightful views towards the village green and historic maypole.

Dating back to 1875, this characterful home was thoughtfully converted in 1989 and has since been significantly enhanced by the current owners, blending period charm with contemporary living.

The accommodation is both spacious and beautifully presented, offering a seamless flow throughout. An impressive reception hallway with staircase and guest cloakroom leads into a delightful lounge, featuring a character fireplace with wood-burning stove and bespoke fitted cabinetry to either side. There is also a newly fitted Wren kitchen, stylishly designed and opening into a spacious dining area. A practical separate utility room completes the ground floor.

To the first floor are two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The principal bedroom is particularly generous in size, having previously been two double bedrooms, and could easily be divided again if preferred. The original doors and radiators have been left in situ to facilitate this.

The gardens are a particular feature and include gated driveway parking and attractive established gardens leading to the converted cow barn, a versatile space suitable for a range of uses, subject to planning permission.

This unique and character-filled residence effortlessly combines heritage, style and practicality. With its idyllic setting, versatile outbuilding and high-quality interior, it presents a rare opportunity for those seeking a truly special home.
