4 Bed Detached House, Single Let, Lincoln, LN5 0AH £425,000

Set on the edge of the Lincoln Cliff escarpment, Coleby enjoys far-reaching views across the Witham Valley and forms part of the popular “Cliff Villages”, an area known for its attractive countryside, strong community spirit and scenic walking routes, including access to the Viking Way, a 149-mile walking route through Lincolnshire, Leicestershire and Rutland that takes in some of the region’s most spectacular countryside.

Despite its peaceful and rural character the Coleby has a thriving, active community. The village is home to a highly regarded primary school, a church, a village hall and a pub, The Tempest Arms, which won a ‘Best Pub Garden of the Year, Lincolnshire’ award in 2025. The neighbouring village of Navenby (2 miles) offers a wider range of amenities, including a medical practice, a Co-op, pubs, a bakery, a butcher, an antique centre, numerous take-aways and several eateries.

The beautiful city of Lincoln is close enough for regular trips (6 miles). Lincoln’s historic Cathedral Quarter is filled with character, culture, and great places to eat, all set along charming, cobbled streets. Meanwhile, the transformed Cornhill Quarter is perfect for a spot of retail therapy, with independents and high-street brands, as well as fantastic restaurants and coffee shops. A regular bus service runs from Coleby, along the A607, into Lincoln and Grantham.
Combining open countryside, historic character and excellent access to the city, Coleby represents a highly desirable village location within the Lincolnshire landscape.

Schools

Coleby has a small primary school, just a short walk from the property. For secondary education, local schools include The Priory Academy LSST in Lincoln (6 miles), as well as the North Kesteven Academy and Sir Robert Pattinson Academy, both in North Hykeham, around six miles northwest and a 10-minute drive.

Additional options include the Priory Pembroke Academy in Lincoln and the independent Lincoln Minster Schools (both prep and senior).

Sleaford (12 miles to the southeast) is home to two highly sought-after state grammar schools – Kesteven and Sleaford High School for girls (rated ‘Outstanding’) and Carre’s Grammar School (for boys, with a mixed sixth form – rated ‘Good’). There is also a highly regarded co-educational St George’s Academy, which is rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted.
