Positioned on a very large corner plot in the popular village of Sibsey, this three-bedroom detached house offers substantial space and clear scope for improvement. The layout includes a front lounge, family room, open-plan kitchen/dining, snug, downstairs W/C and three first-floor bedrooms, centred around a generous family bathroom with separate bath and shower. A large gravel driveway and car port provide ample off-street parking and several outbuildings offer useful storage or workshop potential.
The house dates from before 1900 and retains characterful solid brick construction and original proportions. Practical features include double glazing (installed before 2002) and an oil-fired boiler with radiators. The wrap-around and private rear garden will suit families who want outdoor space, gardeners, or those seeking to extend (subject to consents).
Important drawbacks are straightforward: the property needs renovation throughout, with dated fixtures, mid-20th-century decor and assumed solid walls with no cavity insulation. Heating relies on oil fuel (not a community supply) which may be less economical, broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average. The sale is a probate transaction and is offered with no onward chain, which may suit buyers prepared to move quickly.
This home will appeal to families seeking a roomy, characterful house to personalise, and to investors or developers looking for refurbishment potential in an affluent, low-crime rural setting with good local primary schooling options.
