Viewing is essential to appreciate this magnificent home.  

The Property Moat Farm is positioned on the site of a prior farmhouse which was completely rebuilt in 2007 from the ground up and occupying a larger footprint, creating a superb four bedroom family home, retaining some of the character of the original building that once occupied this site. The property enjoys an enviable position, located down a private lane off Church Lane in Utterby, just a stone's throw from St Andrews' Church with an amazing outlook across the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property was later extended by the current vendors to provide the dining sunroom space adjacent to the kitchen providing a superb open plan space. The vendors also built the 50m curved 6ft brick wall along the length of the driveway, creating a superb grand entrance. The property has brick-faced construction with pitched timber roof and a pantile roof covering and has double-glazed timber sash windows, finished to the highest of standards with oak internal doors with bevelled glazing. Heating is provided by way of a Worcester oil-fired boiler. The property also has an intruder alarm system and heating is supplemented by an open grate fire to sitting room and wood-burning stove to the garden room. The vendors have also, in recent years, built the double garage adjacent, with loft room above in complementary design to the main dwelling and creating further versatile options for its use.

Look for the first left turning into Church Lane and follow the lane for some distance until arriving at a small, private lane on the left, signposted Moat Farm.
