Period Farmhouse with Land & Business Potential – 4/5 Bedrooms – Near Alvingham, Lincolnshire

Once the village’s much‑loved Alvingham Butchers and Farm Shop, Northolme now unfolds across nearly seven acres of gentle paddocks and gardens, a tapestry of local history and future possibilities. Tucked just outside Alvingham, this handsome red‑brick farmhouse—with its mellow tiled roof and sash windows—welcomes you down a private drive flanked by mature hedges and specimen trees.

Stepping through the porch, you enter a welcoming hall where flagstones give way to wide‑plank oak effect floors. To one side, a snug warmed by a cosy log burner and original beamwork spills light from three windows; to the other, a more formal reception room opens into a conservatory used for entertaining and its French doors framing lawns edged with herbaceous borders. Beyond lies a traditional farmhouse kitchen with spacious dining area - perfect for long Sunday lunches.Upstairs, four double bedrooms—all with en‑suite facilities—share a sense of calm and generous proportions, each overlooking hedged paddocks or the distant Lincolnshire Wolds.

A short stroll from the main house you’ll find two fully converted cottage annexes each offering self‑contained living one with open‑plan living and bedroom with spacious bathroom and kitchen and the other has a separate lounge and bedroom along with a fully fitted kitchen and wet room. Whether you choose to accommodate guests, family or staff, they require nothing more than your furnishings. Beyond them stand several substantial barns and outbuildings —from the huge fully covered crew yard with 4 stalls and a handy toilet to classic timber‑framed sheds and workshops and a wonderful hobby room —ready for a broad spectrum of uses: vehicle and machinery storage, workshop studios, or even further holiday‑let conversion.

For countryside leisure, a generous indoor pool sits in its own pool‑house. Although it now needs renovation to bring it back to daily use, its size and setting hint at spa‑style weekends or a wellness retreat ancillary to holiday accommodation.

All around, nearly seven acres of level, well‑drained land are laid out in fenced paddocks, easily sectioned off for hay, grazing or all‑weather riding arenas. Bridleways thread out from the farm gate into miles of quiet lanes and tracks across the Wolds—ideal for horses, off‑road cycling and country walks.

Alvingham itself is quintessentially Lincolnshire: a medieval church, a friendly village hall and a fabulous fruit and veg shop which is the soul of the village slow‑offers slow paced rhythm of rural life. Yet the market town of Louth—with its artisan shops, cafés and highly regarded schools—is barely five miles away. Good road links (A16/A158) and rail access from Lincoln mean you’re never truly remote.
Newark is about an hour away and it offers fast trains to London.

Northolme marries period character and a rich local story with genuine commercial and lifestyle potential. Whether you dream of a multi‑generational family haven, an equestrian smallholding, or a boutique holiday‑let enterprise, this property invites you to steward its next chapter—keeping alive the community spirit that began when it was Alvingham Farm Shop and Butchers.
