Location The historic village of Welton le Wold dates back to the Anglo-Saxon era. The name "Welton" comes from Old English, where "wella" means "spring" or "stream" and "tun" means "farm" or "village, " reflecting the ancient chalk stream that flows through the area. Mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, the village's existence and significance were already noted in the late 11th century during the Norman period.
Today, Welton le Wold is a sought-after village known for its picturesque countryside within the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It offers a peaceful lifestyle while remaining conveniently close to Louth and other regional business centers like Lincoln, Grimsby, and Boston. Humberside Airport is approximately 24 miles away, and Cadwell Park circuit is just 4 miles away. The area is particularly popular with equestrians, featuring numerous bridleways and scenic walking routes.
About The Property.... The house is designed with inverted accommodation, allowing the upper split-level floor to take advantage of the stunning views. With multiple reception rooms, a kitchen and utility room, 5 bedrooms, and 4 bathrooms spread over two floors, the layout is both practical and adaptable. An additional wing, previously used as an office space, offers the potential to be converted into a self-contained 2/3-bedroom apartment with its own entrance, gated access, and parking. There is also the possibility of creating another annexe by incorporating the snug, bedroom 5, and washroom, which already have direct access to the south-facing patio.
Built in the 1970s, the property has been extended and altered over the years to create the spacious home it is today. The exterior features brick-faced walls under pitched timber roofs covered in concrete tiles, with double-glazed windows throughout. The house is heated by an oil central heating system, supplemented by a biomass boiler housed in an external boiler room. Solar panels on the west-facing roof generate electricity, with excess power fed back into the National Grid.
