Set well back from Town Street in desirable Clayworth, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers flexible family living across generous rooms and a large private plot. The house has been newly renovated and benefits from brand-new double glazing throughout, contemporary kitchen and refurbished bathrooms, so it presents as a move-in ready family home with character features such as a brick chimney breast and high-quality finishes.
A self-contained annexe (currently used as a gym) provides independent accommodation with a kitchen, lounge, bedroom and shower room — useful for dependent relatives, long-stay guests or a rental opportunity. Practical outbuildings include a detached double garage with attached workshop and a wide gravel driveway providing ample off-street parking for several vehicles.
The rear garden is a standout — large, fully enclosed and maturely planted with fruit trees, lawns, an Indian stone patio, pond and summer house, plus a hot-tub provision. The location is very private and rural, close to countryside walks, local pubs and within easy reach of Retford for rail links and schools, making it well suited to families seeking village life with commuter links.
Important factual points: the property uses oil-fired central heating (boiler replaced about ten years ago) and the main house has EPC band C with the annexe EPC band D. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and the solid brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation — further thermal upgrades may be desirable. Council Tax is in Band F. Prospective buyers should commission their own surveys and service checks prior to purchase.
