About this property

A favorite aspect of mine are the character features such as the beamed ceilings and exposed brick walls.

Local information

  • Lockington is a historic village set on the Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire borders and following the road improvements at the nearby Junction 24 of the M1 motorway and the link to the A50, the village has now become a quiet backwater enjoying the benefits of easy access to major road, rail and transport links. East Midlands Parkway station is only 4 miles away and East Midlands International Airport is some 4 miles away. The property therefore is superbly location for access to other parts of the UK but within a delightful unspoilt historic village setting.
