Barn conversion in conservation area, Fulbeck, near Lincoln, Newark and Grantham
A three bedroom stone built barn with a clay pantile roof, sympathetically converted and set in a conservation area in the tranquil village of Fulbeck, Lincolnshire with good road and rail links nearby
A recently converted barn in the quiet and tranquil location of Fulbeck.
This lovely barn conversion is tucked away in a pretty conservation area within the village of Fulbeck. Built of local stone under a clay pantile roof and sympathetically renovated, the current owners have created a contemporary yet authentic home.
The current owners, who oversaw the renovation project, have gone to lengths to reclaim and re-cycle as many old and original materials as possible. Other materials used have been of the highest specification available at the time.
Living accommodation is designed for space and comfort while retaining the building's heritage and origins. The result is a home of great authenticity yet with all the comfort and convenience of modern technology for contemporary living.
