Albert Street, Holbeach

A not-to-be missed opportunity to renovate this 3-bedroom Victorian house offered with NO FORWARD CHAIN and having business potential e.g health and beauty/dog grooming subject to permissions.

As a project property to renovate and remodel the interior, it benefits from generous living accommodation, which downstairs comprises a grand entrance hall, a fitted kitchen with pantry, a utility room, a living room, a separate dining room, and a library/office space. Upstairs is a master bedroom with a dressing room off (which could potentially be converted to an en-suite), as well as a second king size bedroom and a third single bedroom. The family bathroom has a fitted 4-piece suite.

The property is set on a deceptive plot, with a patio, a large lawn with established borders, a double garage, off-road parking for 2 vehicles, a portacabin (previously used as a barber shop), a shed, a glasshouse and a summer house.

The property is located within the Conservation Area and has features in keeping with the location, e.g. sash windows. Albert Street is situated off the main shopping street in Holbeach and so the property is recommended to those who would like to be in easy reach of the range of amenities available. Holbeach is a small but busy market town, which has a good range of facilities including local Grocery Stores/Supermarkets, Doctors Surgeries, Takeaways, Veterinary Practices, and Primary and Secondary Schools. Holbeach lies about 20 miles from the city of Peterborough which has a 50-minute inter-city rail service to London, and a frequent service to the North, Scotland, and other regional services. The market town of Spalding is an approximate 19-minute drive away and also provides a variety of local shops, schools and entertainment including pubs, restaurants and a market held every Tuesday and Saturday.
