A Stunning Grade II Listed Georgian Residence with Equestrian Facilities in the village of Pointon

Description
Set discreetly within mature grounds in the heart of the well-served Lincolnshire village of Pointon, Greenoaks is a handsome Grade II listed Georgian home combining architectural elegance and versatile country living.
The combination of village setting, countryside views and catchment area positioning (school buses to top Grammar schools in Bourne and Sleaford) means Greenoaks lends itself particularly well to modern country living, with space to work, access to market towns and commuter stations, and room to host and enjoy family gatherings.

Built in the early 19th century in distinctive chequered red and cream brick, the house is a fine example of Georgian design - retaining the symmetry and character of the period and providing the space and flexibility for modern family life.
The grounds extend to approximately 1.83 acres, including landscaped gardens, useful outbuildings, equestrian facilities and direct access to the surrounding countryside.
Inside, tall sash windows bring natural light to a series of elegant reception rooms, where original fireplaces and period details create a home full of warmth and atmosphere. The arrangement of the house lends itself to flexible family living, home working or multigenerational occupation.

Accommodation
The elegant front entrance opens into a welcoming reception hall where original flagstone flooring establishes the character found throughout the house.
The principal reception rooms are beautifully proportioned, enjoying high ceilings, excellent natural light and a wealth of retained period detail. The main dining room, with distinctive porthole windows, shuttered sash window, and open fireplace, sets the scene for formal dining or family gatherings. The large sitting room is a particularly elegant space: French windows open on to the lawn and courtyard area, and a beautiful fireplace with wood-burning stove creates a focal point year round.

A third living room or snug provides additional space, perfect for teenagers, a gym or cinema room.
At the heart of the home lies the farmhouse-style kitchen and breakfast room, thoughtfully designed to combine traditional character with practicality. Generous preparation space, storage and room for homework at the kitchen table, or wine at the island block, it is a natural gathering spot.
Adjoining the main house is a highly versatile additional wing, currently arranged as a home office, utility room and cloakroom with independent access to both the front and rear gardens. This area could readily serve as consulting rooms, studio space, or as 6th ground floor guest suite, depending on your requirements.

Upstairs
The first floor provides four well-appointed bedrooms, including an attractive principal suite enjoying lovely views west across the gardens, and ensuite bathroom. A large guest bedroom also benefits from ensuite facilities, while the remaining bedrooms with their large sash windows are served by a spacious family bathroom. A secondary staircase rising from the snug leads to a private fifth bedroom: Ideal for older children, family guests, or staff accommodation.

Outside & Grounds
Greenoaks is approached via a sweeping tree-lined gravel driveway with extensive parking, a triple carport and a range of useful outbuildings. For those with equestrian interests, the purpose-built stable block is a particular feature of the property, comprising three stables, tack facilities and small yard with direct access to the paddock. A gate in the small woodland belonging to the property, opens straight on to a bridleway and fields beyond.
A traditional brick-building, once the original coach house and stables, provides excellent storage and offers potential for alternative use or conversion (STPP). The gardens and grounds are predominantly laid to lawn, with established planting, mature trees and entertainment areas.

Lifestyle & Setting
Pointon’s popular village pub offers traditional food and the Indian restaurant and takeaway is renowned locally. The village hall is the centre of a welcoming local community, and local walks have appeared in The Sunday Times.

Conclusion
This is a fantastic opportunity to make your home at Greenoaks: A house of considerable character and enduring appeal - an elegant Georgian village residence offering beautifully proportioned accommodation, established grounds and exceptional versatility.
