Location

Whisby Hall Farm is located around 5 miles south west of the centre of the City of Lincoln and one mile west of the A46 Lincoln ring road. The land lies to the east and west of Thorpe Road, between Thorpe on the Hill to the south and Doddington to the north. Whisby Hall Farm is directly adjacent to Whisby Nature Reserve and the Ladybird Way. The farm benefits from excellent connectivity but is located in a rural and comparatively undisturbed area.

Accommodation

Whisby Hall is an attractive late Georgian manor house which has been in the same family for more than 100 years. The Hall was home to former wartime NFU President in 1942, Kit Nevile. The Hall has well proportioned accommodation including 5 bedrooms, 6 reception rooms and 3 bathrooms. Outside there is a double garage together with a range of brick outbuildings which adjoin the traditional farm buildings in the yard. The Hall is Grade II listed, under list entry number 1061963. Whisby Hall is accessed off Thorpe Road along an inviting private driveway leading to ample parking space next to the Hall. The Hall can also be accessed on foot through the entrance to the yard.

Top House is a detached cottage set back from the road. The house offers 4 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms and 1 bathroom. The house has a garden to the front and an outbuilding to the rear. The house tenant also occupies part of the brick barn and land to the north of the house. The house is accessed off Thorpe Road. The house has mains electricity and water, with oil fired central heating. The house is undergoing a scheme of maintenance and repairs, which can be reviewed in the data room.
