Set on a tranquil riverside stretch in Deeping St James, this five-bedroom detached house combines generous family living with a unique natural setting. Two reception rooms—including a lounge with river views and a multi-fuel burner—give flexible living space, while the bright, open-plan kitchen with Smeg range and bi-fold doors opens to the garden for easy family dining and entertaining.
Practicality for modern households is strong: three bathrooms, a large utility, downstairs WC, integral garage, driveway parking and a bespoke garden office fitted with air conditioning and lightspeed broadband for effortless home working. Outside there’s an enclosed rear garden, two useful outbuildings (including a larger paddleboard store) and direct river access for paddling or waterside downtime.
This location is ideal for families: excellent primary schools nearby, easy access to local amenities, very low crime and fast mobile and broadband. The house sits in a conservation area and benefits from a decent plot in a very affluent, comfortable suburbia setting.
A few practical points to note: the property lies within a conservation area, which may restrict external alterations; council tax sits at band D (moderate); and while several nearby primaries are rated Good, The Deepings School is currently rated Requires Improvement. Overall, this is a spacious family home with attractive riverside lifestyle potential and contemporary working-from-home facilities.
