Set on a very large plot in the sought-after village of Scrooby, this 1930s three-bedroom detached house combines period character with substantial scope for improvement. High ceilings, double bay windows and generous room proportions give the house an immediate sense of space; three reception rooms plus a conservatory and utility provide flexible family layout. The property includes a garage and off-street parking for several cars.
This is a clear modernisation project: the house needs updating throughout and a Damp and Timber report—plus a vendor quote for remedial works—is available to seriously interested buyers. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators, and double glazing was fitted after 2002, so some services have been improved, but buyers should budget for renovation work and any recommended damp/timber repairs.
Practical positives include a large rear garden with mature beds, fruit trees, vegetable plot and an empty pond, plus scope to reconfigure spaces or extend (subject to consents). The property is chain free and well placed for commuting by road and rail via the nearby A1(M) and Retford station. Broadband speeds are reported fast, with average mobile signal.
Important local facts: the property sits in Council Tax band E and the area records higher crime levels—both factors buyers should weigh when considering costs and suitability. Overall this home will suit a family or buyer seeking an investment-worthy renovation in a village setting with good transport links and substantial outdoor space.
