Manor Farm | Scampton
3 New Homes | VILLAGE CENTRE
Full planning permission secured for valued clients Millcroft Development Ltd for the redevelopment of a disused farmstead, delivering a high-quality scheme of three bespoke family homes.
Farm site regeneration successfully wins planning permission
This exclusive development of three exceptional detached homes designed by our in-house team for Millcroft Developments combine traditional craftsmanship with modern luxury.
The full planning application followed a proactive and constructive programme of community engagement, which generated strong local support for the village-centre scheme and helped shape a traditional design that responded positively to the village's historic agricultural context. The properties are marketed for sale by Mundys Estate Agents in Lincoln (link opens in a new tab).
Situated in the heart of Scampton near the city of Lincoln, the development enjoys a highly desirable location. The new homes sit within easy walking distance of the village primary school and directly opposite the award-winning Dambusters Inn - features that further enhance their market appeal and long-term investment value.
The result is a carefully planned, sustainably located development that transforms an underused site into a premium residential opportunity, meeting both local aspirations and wider planning objectives.

What did the original building look like?
The original building was a large steel and asbestos shed which had historically been used for agricultural purposes including drying grain. When our client aquired the site the agricultural uses had long since ceased. The roof and walls were primarily made from asbestos-based panels, grey in colour, with large metal doors on the west of the building. Asbestos is dangerous and harmful and has to be handled and removed properly under the special care of qualified contractors that are licensed and required to meet strict legal requirements.
What does the development look like?
A lot of thought has been given to the layout and design of this small development. It is specifically designed to include the styles of homes and architectural features that can be seen along the High Street. The number of homes was limited to 3 because to allow more garden space and distance between each home. In summary:
The development is an attractive addition to the village and removed a huge under-used asbestos shed that had reached the end of its functional lifespan.
The original stone wall and greenery at the front of the site is retained to ensure the new homes blended in easily.
The properties are built from high-qulity materials including local stone, inkeeping with surrounding homes and local historic buildings.
The original entrance has been retained and resurfaced to provide access to the two rear properties. The property at the front of the site is accessed via a private driveway directly off the High Street.
Each property benefits from:
A private driveway with enough space to park three cars.
A single storey double garage.
A spacious private back garden.
Aesthetic landscaping including the addition of shrubs and small trees.
Privacy from one another with suitable boundaries.
