What the owner told us…

“It’s such a peaceful house to live in. The village has that lovely community feel where neighbours look out for one another, and the house itself is warm and inviting. I’ll miss my office over the garage because it’s so quiet and perfect for working, and the garden has been brilliant for entertaining. Christmas here has always been really special too, with enough space for everyone to gather and enjoy it together.”

Our Thoughts…

The kitchen, dining and living space is the heart of this home. It is light, open and designed for easy living. The central island makes a natural gathering point, the log burner brings warmth on winter evenings and the French doors open straight onto the garden in the summer. It is a space that feels social when you want it to be and calm when you just want to relax.

If you prefer a more private setting, the separate living room, currently used as a dining room, offers just that. The bay window brings in lovely light and the open fire makes it a cosy retreat, whether you are enjoying a quiet evening or hosting a more formal meal.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including the principal with its own en-suite. One of the bedrooms has been set up as a dressing room with a full wall of wardrobes, showing how flexible the layout can be. The family bathroom is fresh and bright with a shower-over-bath. With new carpets and tasteful décor, the house is ready for the next owners to move straight in.

The double garage is more than just parking. Above it, there is a study with its own shower room. It has been used as a home office, but it could just as easily work as a guest space, a teenager’s retreat or even the beginnings of a self-contained annexe, subject to permissions.

The rear garden is private, secure and easy to look after. There are areas for sitting out, planting and enjoying the sunshine, with a lawn for children or pets. To the front, the driveway has space for several cars alongside the garage, so there is always room when family or friends visit.

Carlby is a village people choose for the lifestyle as much as the location. Sitting neatly between Stamford and Bourne, it gives you quick access to both while still keeping that countryside feel. The village hall is a hub for events, neighbours know each other by name and the lanes around the village are perfect for walks, bike rides and exploring. It feels safe, welcoming and family friendly, while still being well connected for work and travel.

This house brings together everything that makes village living so appealing. It is spacious without feeling overwhelming, practical without losing charm and social without giving up quiet corners to retreat to. It is a home that works for families, couples or downsizers looking for something that is easy to live in and a joy to come back to.
