The property is situated in a picturesque setting overlooking open farmland to the front and rear, Authorpe Manor is a substantial detached house of about 4700 sq ft. The property is late Georgian with later additions and has an imposing first impression, with its tall sash and bay windows, arched entryways and generous footprint. In recent years the house has been renovated, transforming the interiors and improving the grounds and gardens. The house has been modernised internally though still benefits from some character features, and there are beautiful views over the garden and fields towards the Lincolnshire Wolds, Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Entertaining is made easy by the flexible layout, which has a good mix of formal reception rooms and family areas. On the north west side of the house, overlooking the walled front garden, there are three formal rooms: a living room with wood-burning stove, a dining room with a beamed ceiling and a separate drawing room with two bay windows. On the opposite side of the house there are the less formal areas, comprising a breakfast room and garden room, a kitchen with attached utility room and a ground floor bedroom with en suite bathroom. The kitchen is a fabulous space with a Lacanche stove, French shaker-style cabinets with quartz work surfaces and a large central island: an elegant room where the whole family can come together. Upstairs there are six double bedrooms, including a principal suite with an en suite shower room, with the remaining bedrooms sharing two additional bathrooms.

Authorpe Manor is situated within grounds of about 1.97 acres, comprising extensive private parking, mature gardens and a paddock. The latter would be suited to grazing animals, such as horses or sheep, and there is a detached stable block which has been converted to an outbuilding for storage which could be returned back to a livestock building if desired. The house is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway passing through an imposing pillared entrance to a large parking area in front of the house. There are formal gardens to the front and double gates opening to additional parking, there are landscaped gardens, outbuildings and the paddock to the rear of the house. The formal gardens are a particular highlight with a fountain surrounded by roses, box topiary, trees and shrubs.
