Sitting on the fringe of the charming village of Scotton, in North Lincolnshire, Toftstead Barn is a beautifully reimagined farmhouse, where timeless character meets modern elegance. Set within a quarter-acre of private landscaped gardens, this four-bedroom home offers extensive light-filled living spaces, wrapped in warmth, craftsmanship, and quiet confidence.

Since acquiring the property in 2015, the current owners have poured vision and care into every corner, remodelling the ground floor to suit contemporary life, and securing planning permission to connect and convert the attached two-storey barn. The newly completed living room, with its vaulted ceiling and orangery feel, now adjoins the barn, ready for its next chapter. Whether you dream of a luxurious principal suite, a creative studio, or a guest retreat, the barn offers endless potential. For now, it serves as a generous workshop, and creative space with storage. There are three rooms on the ground floor and two above.

Inside - ground floor The original farmhouse entrance opens into a breathtaking 9.5m open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space, anchored by a bespoke island that blends granite and oak with sculptural flair. Traditional cabinetry in soft grey and stone tones is paired with premium appliances, including an Everhot range, built-in coffee machine and wine fridge. A twin-bowl Belfast sink and stunning custom splashback add to the visual delight, further enhanced by an exposed brick chimney breast with a dual fuel stove, which adds traditional charm. Squared archways lead to a spacious sitting and dining area, complete with underfloor heating, and an oak return staircase which rises gracefully to the first floor. Bi-folding doors open into the newly added living room, a showstopping space with vaulted trusses and roof windows. There are two further sets of bi-folds that open into the garden, and flood the living room with light. The centrepiece of the room is the circular Italian wood-burning stove, which adds sculptural warmth for the cooler seasons. The additional forward-facing reception room on this floor currently serves as a home office, but would equally make an ideal playroom or hobbyist space, with French doors to the garden and an adjoining cloakroom. A sleek utility room completes the ground floor, with high-gloss cabinetry and access to the rear garden.
