Three-bedroom 1920s detached home with large garden and ample parking, chain-free.
Extended 1920s detached house retaining period features
A well-proportioned 1920s detached family house set on a generous plot in Moorgate Park, close to Retford town centre and schools. The house retains strong period features — bay windows, stained and leaded glass, picture rails and original doors — and offers two reception rooms plus an extended kitchen/diner that opens to a large, private garden. The lengthy driveway and single garage provide ample parking for several cars.
The layout suits families looking for comfortable living space immediately, with scope for cosmetic updating to increase value. The kitchen is traditional and serviceable but dated; modernisation would unlock the property’s full potential. There is one shower room upstairs serving three bedrooms, which may be limiting for larger households.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the property is freehold and offered chain-free, with mains gas central heating and double glazing fitted post-2002. However, the solid brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, and buyers should budget for potential improvement works. Services and appliances have not been tested and a survey is recommended.
Location strengths include easy access to local amenities, schools and Retford mainline station. Note the area records higher crime levels and significant local deprivation; purchasers should weigh these community factors alongside the house’s size, plot and parking advantages.
