Characterful family home with large garden, garage and parking near town.
Four bedrooms with original 1930s period features
A spacious-feeling four-bedroom semi in one of Retford’s favoured streets, this house combines original 1930s character with practical family living. Period details such as the gallery landing, bay windows and stone fireplace give the home warmth and charm, while the large rear garden, single garage and driveway for multiple cars offer real outdoor and parking convenience.
The accommodation includes a generous lounge, separate dining room with patio doors to the garden, and a long galley kitchen fitted with 1980s medium oak units. Upstairs are four bedrooms, a bathroom plus separate WC — suited to growing families but potentially constrained by only one full bathroom. The property has gas central heating with the boiler in an understairs cupboard.
This home is being offered on a freehold basis and is being sold for the first time since 1970, so while many original features remain intact, sensible updating and modernisation will improve comfort and value. Location is a clear strength: easy walking distance to the town centre, good primary and secondary schools nearby, a footbridge to the mainline station and quick access to the A1.
Overall, the house will suit a family seeking character, outdoor space and excellent transport links who are prepared to modernise key areas such as the kitchen and bathroom to their own taste. No flood risk, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal add to the practical appeal.
