The property described as a farmhouse in the listing is dated late 16th Century constructed with coarse stone elevations, timber framing, pargetted rendering and a steep pitched pantiled roof. Indeed a remarkable property with a delightful location, a substantial walled frontage, a range of outbuildings suitable for annexe conversion if required and sufficient land capable of providing a pony paddock.

The principal accommodation on the ground floor provides an entrance lobby, reception hall, sitting room with inglenook fireplace, family room, separate dining room with French windows to a conservatory, kitchen, cloakroom/utility and boiler room. The first floor provides a long landing with exposed timber frame and Yorkshire sliding windows in the rear elevation. There are four very large double sized bedrooms and the family bathroom.

The outbuildings substantially built with brick elevations under a pantiled roof provide former stalled stables and a 32 ft length garage. The property stands on elevated ground with the garden running down to the "fleet", a small stream and wildlife haven. There is a two bay field shelter, potting shed and greenhouse.

Formerly separate parishes North and South Collingham have long since united and formed one long leafy village. The property is situated in South Collingham adjacent to St John The Baptist Church with a tall tower dominating the village. This particularly attractive corner of the village has a number of hansom and interesting houses and indeed The Nunnery is a stunning property on approach.

Collingham is situated 6 miles north of Newark with excellent local amenities including a Co-operative store, family butchers, Post Office, Hairdressers, Primary School, Medical Centre with GP Surgery, Pharmacy and Dentist. There are many social organisations, societies and clubs. The Royal Oak pub is community owned. Collingham has a railway station providing regular services to Newark, Lincoln and Nottingham. Access points to the A46 and A1 dual carriageway are within 4 miles. Newark is on the main East Coast Railway Line with regular services to York, Newcastle and Edinburgh. London King's Cross is within an average 75 minute journey time.
