East Barn, Redmay Farm

The distant sound of church bells.

A woodland backdrop alive with birdsong.

Walks from the door, and a small village where neighbours still know one another.

These are the things so many people now actively seek.

Not just countryside.

Not just space.

But a better way to live.

Welcome to East Barn.

Set within Redmay Farm, a small and exclusive farmstead-style development in the conservation village of South Scarle, East Barn is a substantial modern barn-style home offering generous accommodation, everyday practicality and a wonderfully settled semi-rural lifestyle.

Built in 2022, the home combines the visual appeal of barn-style architecture with the reassurance and efficiency of modern living.

It is spacious, light-filled and thoughtfully arranged, with generous rooms for family life, entertaining, working from home and welcoming guests.

East Barn forms part of a small, carefully created farmstead-style setting, where the link-attached design feels entirely in keeping with the character of Redmay Farm. Each home has its own individuality, privacy and space, while the wider setting brings the comfort of near neighbours within a small and supportive community.

In many ways, that reflects South Scarle itself.

This is a small village with a genuine sense of place. Its history is rooted in farming, parish life and the surrounding countryside, and that rural character still gives the village much of its charm today. It is peaceful, pretty and charming, with the church sitting at the heart of village life.

The church is not only a landmark, but also a community space, hosting bellringing, coffee mornings, yoga, pop-up pub evenings and local gatherings. There is a village newsletter, a play area and the kind of neighbourly culture that is increasingly hard to find.

Inside, East Barn offers flexible accommodation arranged across two floors, with five bedrooms, three reception rooms and two staircases. It is a layout that gives the home genuine flexibility.

For families, there is plenty of room to grow.

For those working from home, there is space to separate work from daily life.

For older children, visiting guests or multi-generational living, the second staircase creates the potential for a greater sense of independence within the home.

The kitchen and main living areas are more than capable of handling everyday life, as well as those all-important coming together moments.

Flooded with natural light and connected to the garden, they feel warm, relaxed and extremely easy to live in. Without doubt, these are spaces for ordinary mornings, busy weekends, family gatherings, muddy boots, dogs asleep by the door and friends staying longer than planned.

To the rear, the garden backs onto a private wooded area, bringing birdsong, greenery and a lovely sense of calm. It is a garden that gives. Plenty of space, sunshine at varying times of day, and that all-important privacy. It feels meaningful without being overwhelming and has all the things that might be on your wish list, complete with lighting, electrics, hot and cold water.

Practicality has also been carefully considered. There is generous parking for around four or five vehicles, a large garage with electric doors and useful additional storage. When you need to feel connected, full fibre broadband is available and the current owners report that there is very good mobile signal too.

For those who love the outdoors, the setting is a real gift.

South Scarle and the surrounding countryside are ideal for dog walkers and cyclists, with walks from the door and nearby open spaces including Spalford Warren and Besthorpe Nature Reserve.

Collingham is only a short drive away and provides day-to-day amenities, together with rail connections. Newark and Lincoln are also within easy reach, offering further shopping, dining, schooling, culture and wider travel links, making East Barn a strong option for those who want a semi-rural lifestyle without feeling disconnected.

East Barn is not about being remote.

It is about having room to live well, with countryside around you, community beside you, and the comfort of a home designed to make everyday life feel easier.
