Summary - 21 STATION ROAD RETFORD DN22 7DE
5 bed 2 bath House
Large-period home close to station — renovation opportunity with rental potential.
Five double bedrooms across four floors
A substantial five-double-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace laid out over four floors, this property sits immediately opposite Retford train station, making it highly attractive to rental investors or commuter purchasers. The converted lower ground floor with a bathroom adds flexible accommodation and income potential. Period features such as high ceilings, bay windows and built-in cupboards give the house character and good letting appeal.
The house requires updating and is presented as a renovation opportunity. Heating is currently by anthracite and room heaters; buyers should verify heating and plumbing arrangements and note that services and appliances have not been tested. The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and the exterior and interiors are described as dated, so expect refurbishment and possible insulation work to improve energy efficiency.
Practical aspects: freehold tenure, on-street resident permit parking, a small rear courtyard garden and very low council tax banding. The property is in a deprived area with very high local crime levels, which will affect resale and tenant demand; factor this into rental assumptions or family suitability.
For investors the location and room count create clear multiple-occupancy or HMO potential once modernised. For buyers seeking a family home, the layout and proximity to good local schools are positives, but the renovation needs and local crime statistics should be weighed before viewing.
