The Old Bakery, Walesby, NG22

Nestled in the charming North Nottinghamshire village of Walesby, The Old Bakery is a substantial period farmhouse brimming with original features and offering an exciting opportunity for a new family to make their mark. Having been in the same ownership for many years, this much-loved home is now ready to begin a new chapter. From beamed ceilings and Victorian doors to generous room proportions and a traditional layout, the property is full of warmth, character, and potential.

Walesby itself is a picturesque and well-connected village, surrounded by open countryside yet conveniently placed for access to both Retford and Newark, with rail links to London from both towns. The village offers a friendly community feel, with local amenities including a primary school, village hall, and nearby countryside walks. The A1 is just a short drive away, making commuting or travel further afield easily accessible. Families will appreciate being within the catchment area for the highly regarded Tuxford Academy.

Internally, the property boasts a flexible layout with plenty of space for growing families. There are two sitting rooms, both rich in period charm, and a spacious reception room centred around a striking fireplace, currently serving as a dining room and office area. The galley-style kitchen sits adjacent to a useful utility area and downstairs WC, completing the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with four bedrooms, including a master suite with en-suite shower room and dressing room. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, while a large walk-in attic room presents the potential for further conversion, subject to the necessary permissions.

Externally, the plot is generous, with driveway parking, a double garden to the side, and a large, established rear garden featuring mature trees, shrubs, and a wide lawn area – ideal for family life or outdoor entertaining. The property also lends itself to rear extension, offering the scope to create additional living or bedroom space (STPP).

In summary, The Old Bakery is a rare opportunity to acquire a charming period home in a sought-after village location. Offering a generous footprint, original character features and the potential to modernise and extend, this is an ideal prospect for buyers looking to create their forever family home with space, charm, and scope to add their own stamp.
