A rare chance to buy a substantial Georgian/Victorian country house offering flexible space across approximately 7,054 sq ft (including outbuildings). The Old House sits on c.0.45 acres at the edge of North Muskham and includes two driveways, two garages, a workshop and an annexe — useful for extended family, rental income or conversion (subject to planning).
The property retains many period features: bay windows, high ceilings, original fireplaces and a large conservatory. The main house provides multiple reception rooms and a substantial kitchen/boot room, while the linked annexe has its own sitting room, kitchen-diner and two bedrooms — currently benefitting from separate heating.
Buyers should note clear and material drawbacks: the property has a high flood risk, an EPC rating of F and sits in Council Tax band G (expensive). Construction is solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, heating is oil/LPG and broadband speeds are slow. The sale is by SDL auction (unconditional) with a 10% deposit and buyer’s fees — read the legal pack carefully.
This will suit purchasers seeking a large family home, multi-generational living, an investment to refurbish, or a redevelopment/split opportunity (subject to planning). Expect some immediate expenditure on energy performance, flood mitigation and general renovation to modern standards.
