In such a convenient position with everything you might need within walking distance, the property would suit a young family, a couple or indeed, an individual.
Location
Attractive Navenby lies on the A607 about 10 miles (15 mins) south of Lincoln and is one of the larger ‘cliff’ villages standing on the limestone escarpment that runs north to south in the centre of Lincolnshire. Newark-on-Trent in Nottinghamshire is about 15 miles (20 mins) southwest, and Sleaford about 10 miles (15 mins) southeast. Fast trains from Newark to central London take around 75 minutes making it perfectly feasible for a day trip into the capital. Grantham is less than a half hour drive south where there is also a train station, fast trains to Kings Cross taking around an hour.
A few years ago, Navenby was voted one of the top rural locations in Britain in which to live. A charming village with a lovely mix of traditional stone period properties, many listed buildings, it is a thriving community.
The property is situated in the very heart of the village so everything is within an easy walk. There are several family-run shops and businesses such as Welbourne’s Bakery which is one of the longest standing artisanal bakeries in the county, and Welbourne’s Tea Room.
The main supermarket is the Co-op although there is a One-Stop convenience store almost opposite; there is a medical centre, two pubs, The Lion & Royal and The King’s Head, as well as the popular Macy’s Brasserie. A new community centre, The Navenby Venue, is a hub of activity for many clubs, classes and events.
Navenby straddles the old Roman Road, Ermine Street, as well as the Viking Way providing wonderful country walks with views across the Trent Valley, and much local history. Mrs. Smith’s Cottage is a popular museum in the village illustrating a century of rural Lincolnshire life.
Schools
Navenby C of E Primary School is rated Outstanding by Ofsted and is within walking distance of the property. There is a wide choice of secondary education in the area with a popular state school, William Robertson Academy 3.5 miles (about 5 mins) down the road in Welbourn, a co-ed school rated Good.
Sleaford, about 10 miles to the southeast, has St. George’s Academy, Carre’s Grammar School, and Kesteven & Sleaford High School (for Girls), all rated Good. Kesteven and Grantham Girls’ School and The King’s School (for boys), both rated Outstanding by Ofsted, are about 15 miles south in Grantham.
Newark, 15 miles southwest, has Newark Academy and Magnus Academy, both rated Good. In Lincoln, 11 miles north, The Priory Academy, Sir Robert Pattinson Academy and North Kesteven Academy, amongst others, are also all rated Good. In the independent sector, the co-educational Lincoln Minster Schools in the centre of the city are extremely highly regarded.
