The Manor House, Pickworth

Set within approximately 3 acres, this six-bedroom stone manor house is attractively positioned in manicured grounds in a peaceful backwater, just a short distance from the Georgian market town of Stamford. The property also benefits from easy access to the A1 and mainline trains to London, with Peterborough offering journey times of under an hour.

This home is rich in character while having been recently renovated and refurbished to provide practical family accommodation. A lovely open-plan living kitchen sits at the heart of the home, complemented by formal reception rooms. Spacious bedroom suites are arranged over two floors, along with a self-contained detached annex.

The grounds have been thoughtfully designed for low upkeep and to encourage biodiversity, and include a kitchen garden, along with solar panels and battery storage that offer near off-grid running costs. Paddocks and stabling lie to the rear, with an additional paddock—also owned by the property—enjoying an outlook from the front.

This home offers all the ambience of traditional country house living while providing a practical, modern family environment in a very sought-after area. (Please note: a recent application for a nearby solar farm will not be in view from the house or grounds.)

Pickworth is a charming and peaceful village nestled in the Rutland countryside, known for its picturesque stone cottages, scenic surroundings, and strong sense of community. Despite its rural setting, it enjoys easy access to nearby market towns such as Stamford, Bourne, and Oakham, offering a perfect balance of tranquillity and convenience.
