Tucked away along a quiet lane in the small, highly regarded village of Stockerston, Firs Farm is a hidden gem a beautiful barn conversion offering peace, privacy and endless potential, all set within approximately 1.7 acres of gardens and paddock land subject to measured survey . With protected countryside views, flexible living accommodation and a wonderful sense of history, it is a rare opportunity to acquire a property that offers both a charming country lifestyle and excellent proximity to Uppingham and the wider amenities of the area.

The house itself forms part of what was once a traditional working dairy farm, originally dating back at least 250 years. In the mid 1980s, the barns were sensitively converted by a developer, preserving the authenticity of the buildings while creating a welcoming and liveable home.

The layout of the property is centred around a charming central south facing courtyard with a water feature, providing a beautiful outlook from several rooms and a calming heart to the home. The main reception room is a lovely space, enjoying dual aspects and views towards the garden, while the kitchen and dining room sit adjacent, offering practical and sociable spaces with doors that flow naturally to the courtyard outside. The kitchen itself, fitted in a classic style, is both practical and characterful, with a bay window looking onto the courtyard and fields beyond.

The principal bedroom suite is particularly generous, comprising a spacious double bedroom, dressing area and large en suite shower room. Two further bedrooms are located nearby, both doubles, one en suite the other with a dedicated shower room, providing flexibility for family living or guest accommodation. Additionally, there are three further rooms currently used as studies but easily adaptable to further bedrooms if desired. This adaptability is reflected across the property, which could readily evolve to suit the changing needs of a growing family, those seeking multi generational living, or simply purchasers requiring ample room to work from home.

One of the highlights of Firs Farm is the wing of the house containing the beautiful garden room once the old dairy building a stunning space with exposed original beams and feature windows, a real connection to the property s agricultural past.

Externally, Firs Farm continues to impress. The grounds, extending to approximately 1.7 acres subject to measured survey , include a formal lawned garden dotted with mature trees, borders and shrubs, established fruit trees, a large enclosed paddock with its own entrance off Church Lane and the central courtyard. There is a stable block offering three stables with an attached large car port and barns to the rear. An attached garage providing secure parking and additional storage. Over the years, the land has been used in a variety of ways, including grazing for sheep and ponies, and it would lend itself beautifully to small scale hobby equestrian use or simple enjoyment as part of a country lifestyle.

The setting is truly idyllic. The paddock enjoys wonderful views across open fields towards Stockerston Hall and the property is remarkably private, hidden from view and approached via a long curving old farm driveway, offering a sense of seclusion that is increasingly rare to find.
