Burton Drive, Retford, DN22

***GUIDE PRICE £250,000 - £260,000***

A truly elegant and immaculately presented split-level townhouse, nestled within the opulent setting of the former Victorian Grammar School — a secure, stylish, and low-maintenance ‘lock up and leave’ residence, perfect for those seeking a refined yet convenient lifestyle. Offering two parking spaces and no onward chain !

Entering through a handsome wooden-panelled front door, framed by slimline leaded light windows, you’re welcomed into a spacious entrance hall, finished with moulded skirtings and offering built-in storage with lighting and hanging space. A staircase rises to the first-floor landing, while a well-appointed cloakroom sits conveniently nearby, featuring a modern vanity unit, illuminated mirror, chrome towel radiator, and tasteful tiled splashback.

The living room is a sophisticated and light-filled space, with secondary glazed leaded light windows overlooking the private courtyard and garden. A painted fire surround with raised hearth forms a charming focal point, complemented by wall lighting, a TV point, and detailed skirtings.

Steps lead up to the beautifully designed breakfast kitchen — a practical yet stylish room fitted with an extensive range of dove grey cabinetry, ample work surfaces, and integrated appliances including a dishwasher, washer, fridge freezer, electric oven with grill, and a four-ring electric hob with extractor above. Three leaded light windows to the front and rear flood the space with natural light. Under-cabinet lighting, recessed ceiling spots, and a wall-mounted TV point complete the space, while a discreet cupboard houses the wall-mounted gas combination boiler and provides space for a tumble dryer.

A turning staircase with a graceful oak balustrade and handrail leads to the upper level, where a generous landing connects the principal bedrooms. The main bedroom is beautifully proportioned, with a front-facing leaded light window, Juliet-style internal balcony, decorative corbels, and a fitted double wardrobe with ample storage. Its en suite is finished to a high standard, with a full-width shower enclosure, mains-fed raindrop shower, contemporary vanity unit with inset basin, low-level WC, chrome towel radiator, and illuminated mirror — all beneath soft recessed lighting.

The second bedroom, currently used as a snug, enjoys peaceful rooftop views through its rear aspect windows and offers a generous layout with a built-in wardrobe and large recess — ideal for a desk or dressing area. It too benefits from a stylish en suite, complete with curved corner shower finished in aquaboard, a vanity unit with storage, chrome towel radiator, and illuminated mirror.

Blending the grandeur of its architectural heritage with the ease of modern living, this exceptional townhouse offers a rare opportunity to own a slice of historic elegance — wrapped in comfort, security, and timeless style.

This superb home sits within an exclusive gated community, just a short stroll from the heart of Retford. Everyday essentials are close at hand, with a Lidl supermarket conveniently located across the road on London Road. The town centre offers a full range of amenities, with further attractions nearby including the scenic Chesterfield Canal and Retford railway station, which provides a direct link to London Kings Cross. Residents also benefit from excellent local healthcare, with the Primary Care Centre located just north of the town centre, and a wide selection of leisure and recreational facilities throughout the area.
