A rare canalside five-bedroom character house set in extensive, landscaped grounds with direct gated access to the Chesterfield Canal. The property extends to around 2,800 sq ft and combines large principal rooms, a bespoke kitchen and an impressive summer/winter lounge that enjoys views from every angle. Outdoors are three double garages, multiple outbuildings, stables, tackroom, hay store and a fenced paddock with water — ideal for personal equestrian use or secure caravan/horsebox parking.
Positioned in the small village of Hayton, the house sits in a quiet rural setting yet is only 3.5 miles from Retford’s Georgian market town amenities and rail link. The plot offers high privacy, formal lawns, water features, a tree-lined driveway with electric gates and a timber pergola with space for a hot tub. The home is chain free and freehold, offering straightforward onward purchase.
Buyers should note a few practical points: heating is by electric storage heaters, original stone walls are assumed uninsulated, broadband speeds are slow and council tax is described as quite expensive. Services and appliances have not been tested, so a professional survey is recommended to confirm condition and running costs. With attention to insulation and heating upgrades, the house has strong long-term appeal for families seeking lifestyle space or buyers wanting an equestrian hobby property.
