A fine detached four-bedroom family home, Manor House enjoys a peaceful position at the heart of the highly sought-after village of Welby, less than six miles from Grantham.
This unlisted Ancaster stone property presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a home of character, offering approximately 2,390 sq. ft. of versatile living accommodation. The interior would now benefit from a sympathetic programme of modernisation, allowing the purchaser to create a home tailored to their own style and requirements.
The ground floor comprises a spacious breakfast kitchen with adjoining utility room, a 22 ft. sitting room with feature fireplace, a formal dining room, conservatory, and a cloakroom/WC. To the first floor there are four bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with en-suite bathroom, together with a large family bathroom.

The picturesque village of Welby is set within the unspoilt Lincolnshire countryside. Despite its peaceful charm, the village provides excellent connections to Grantham, with easy access to the A1 and mainline rail services to London King’s Cross taking around an hour, making Manor House equally suited to family life and commuting professionals.

Seller Insights
“Manor House is believed to date back to the early 18th century and has been our much-loved family home for over 30 years. It’s built from the beautiful, mellow Ancaster stone that’s so typical of the area. Although it stands right in the heart of the village, it’s always been a peaceful place to live.
“My parents lived here well into their nineties so it was essential to keep the house warm and welcoming in winter. All the windows are traditional-style double-glazed UPVC, and we installed a new boiler in 2023, followed by a new oil tank this year. There’s central heating throughout, complemented by an open fire in the dining room and a gas fire in the sitting room — perfect for cosy evenings in.”
“The mature gardens are very special with established trees, colourful borders, and a sunny terrace. We also have private parking and a double garage, accessed conveniently from Main Street.”
“Welby is a lovely village, with a close-knit community. You’ll find lots of fantastic schools locally, including easy access to the highly regarded Grantham Grammar Schools so it’s a great location for raising a family. For professionals the road and rail links to major cities are excellent and conveniently the village pub is just a short walk away!
“Ancaster is just a few miles away and has an excellent doctors’ surgery, supermarket, butcher’s shop and leisure centre. There are further leisure and facilities in nearby Sleaford and Grantham.”
“We have got beautiful countryside on the doorstep with country walks in every direction and the National Trust Belton Estate is just 4 miles away which is wonderful for a day out with formal gardens, parkland, outdoor adventure playground and indoor play cafe.”
