Moorgate Villa, 19 Welham Road, Retford, Nottinghamshire, DN22 6TN

A charming Grade II listed Georgian property standing within private mature grounds extending to around half an acre in all. The property boasts much original character and many period features which all add to the grandeur of this very attractive family home.

In addition to the main house is a large former coach house which sees two garages, a store and wash room to the ground floor and two spacious rooms to the first floor, giving huge potential for redevelopment to be used as officing, a studio or a separate annex for teenage offspring or dependent relative, should a buyer so wish.

Moorgate Villa dates to circa. 1775 and was extended and renovated into the property that is on offer here today. As you walk into the entrance hall you are immediately reminded of the elegance that homes of this stature offer with high ceilings, fantastic architecture and a wonderful sweeping staircase. The front door and stained-glass window all add to the character of this charming home. Off the entrance hall are a total of four reception rooms all of which are bathed in natural light coming from the large sash windows. A formal dining room provides the ideal space to entertain guests all year round and flows seamlessly into a grand drawing room with feature fireplace and patio doors leading to the rear gardens. A separate dual aspect reception room again sees a fantastic feature fireplace and is more a morning room as it takes advantage of the early morning sun. The heart of this enviable family home is a living kitchen which has both seating and dining areas. The kitchen was updated around six years ago and boasts an extensive range of base and wall units as well as number of integral appliances. There is also a W/C and cellar.

The rather regal staircase rises to the first elevation and flows to an open plan landing area and a total of five bedrooms in all. The principal suite gives en suite facilities, whilst bedrooms two and three are large double bedrooms both with dual aspect windows. The fourth and fifth bedrooms are single rooms ideal for smaller children or to be utilised as a study area for anyone wishing to work from home. There is a spacious family bathroom with bath and shower facilities.

The grounds extend to around half an acre in all with a gated entrance, driveway and parking for a number of vehicles. The well-manicured and established gardens see mature trees and shrubs, lawns and well stocked boarders. To the rear of the property is a raised patio area which is ideal for alfresco dining and benefits from its totally private position. There are a variety of fruit trees and a greenhouse for the green fingered buyers amongst us.
