An exceptional village property with a stunning contemporary interior, country views and indoor swimming pool, located close to Stamford

LOCATIONUffington House is located on the very edge of Uffington village, just two miles to the east of the lovely Lincolnshire market town of Stamford. The village itself has a pub and primary school, whilst Stamford, with its historic buildings including the renowned George Hotel, offers a variety of shops, restaurants and local schools set on either side of the River Welland. The renowned Burghley House Estate is next door and offers walks, a Sculpture Park and gardens: it also plays host to a number of events throughout the year, including Burghley Horse Trials. The property is well placed for road access with the A1 just a few miles away, and Stamford station has links to the Midlands and connections to Peterborough station for the high speed train link to London and the North. The area is excellently served for education with private schools closeby at Witham-on-the-Hill and Stamford, whilst Oakham, Oundle and Uppingham are all within driving distance, and local state schools include the Grammar School in Bourne. It is an easy drive to Rutland Water for outdoor leisure pursuits and there is golf at Burghley Park.


DESCRIPTION1 Main Road is a stunning contemporary property set on the edge of open countryside with superb views over open fields to the rooftops of Stamford. Built two years the property has been designed as a modern, flexible home set over three floors that offers a splendid mix of stunning entertaining space, informal family rooms and sunny bedrooms fitted with sleek en suite bath and shower-rooms. On the ground floor, stunning open-plan living spaces are flooded with natural light from the many windows, which also make the most of the countryside views and sliding glass doors allow two sides of the house to open seamlessly to the garden. The interior design features clean lines to set off the ‘floating’ oak and glass staircase, Italian lighting and the impressive bespoke ‘Cesar’ kitchen which forms the centre of the living space, whilst additions such as an integrated sound system, under-floor heating, solar panels and air-source heat pumps make this an energy efficient home for the future. A particular highlight of the house is the exceptional pool room with feature lighting and floor-to-ceiling sliding doors giving views across the grounds and allowing the room to open out fully to the terrace. Outside the sunny grounds are bordered by open countryside with views across to Stamford and the property has the further benefit of a potential fenced paddock adjoining the garden.

Beautifully framed by a patchwork of rolling farmland is the picturesque village of Uffington, and set in a glorious location

within the much sought after village is number 1

Main Road. This wonderfully contemporary

family home was built just over four years ago

in a style that, though ultra modern in design,

is extremely sympathetic to the narrative of its

stunning surroundings.

insightOne enters this lovely home into the very spacious and welcoming reception hall, which stretches all the way to

the back of the property where four sets of patio doors serve to

not only bring in the glorious views but also flood the house with

natural light. Each of the main living areas then flow from this

space creating an easy layout that is perfect for busy family life.


The hub of the home is said to be the wonderfully spacious, open-plan kitchen and dining area. It is an

area in which the family can comfortably come together for

cooking, eating and relaxing, and it is also a space that is ideal

for entertaining. Local interior design company NGI Design, who

specialise in high-end, contemporary furniture, created the kitchen

based on the architecture of the house and the day-to-day needs

of the family.


Another fabulous feature of this property is the indoor swimming pool, which again has patio doors that can be pushed back to create a wonderful connection with the garden. And more recently the owners have

added a large basement space, which is said to be a blank canvass with the potential to be transformed into anything from a

games room to a space for teenagers.
