Description
Tucked away in a well-regarded part of Wisbech, Sandalwood is a rare gem - a much-loved, mid-century family home thought to date back to the 1970s, extended and evolved over the years to become the striking and expansive property it is today.
Set across over 5,000 sq. ft. of living and ancillary space, this residence offers an exceptional footprint for family life, entertaining, and long-term flexibility. While beautifully maintained, the home now presents a wonderful opportunity for those with vision to bring a modern design sensibility to its well-proportioned rooms, retro features, and thoughtful layout.
Step inside to find a wealth of accommodation: a bright and inviting sitting room with bay-style windows, a generous kitchen/dining room, and a stunning garden room bathed in natural light. Multiple reception spaces, including a games room and dedicated pool wing, bring endless potential for relaxation and recreation.
The layout easily lends itself to multi-generational living, with six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and plenty of space to adapt for home working, guest accommodation, or hobby areas. To the rear, a heated indoor pool (disused for several years) offers a standout lifestyle touch, while detached outbuildings (314 sq. ft. approx.) could suit a workshop, studio, or garden room conversion (STPP).
The mature, private plot is a highlight, with established planting, open lawns, and the practical bonus of gated rear access, offering a useful back way into the grounds. Perfectly positioned for access to local schools, healthcare facilities, and Wisbech town centre, Sandalwood is a practical as well as aspirational home.
WISBECH
Commonly known as the Capital of the Fens, the attractive and historic market town of Wisbech is renowned for its elegant Georgian architecture. The town has an abundance of amenities to offer, such as a theatre, swimming pool, library, good schools and the Horsefair Shopping Centre. Browse the shops or visit the market on a Thursday or Saturday with a wide range of traders offering locally grown produce and plants.
Explore the surroundings by taking a leisurely walk through the tranquil gardens in the heart of the town centre, which have been awarded a commendation award for Innovation for its links to the town’s Merchant Trail. The Merchant’s trail shares the history of the many famous characters of the town, telling the story of how Wisbech became one of the most prosperous ports in the country during the 18th and 19th centuries.
Wisbech Park is just a five minute walk from the town centre. Extending to over 12 acres, the facilities include tennis courts, bowls green, two children’s play areas and a multi-use games area for five-a-side and basketball.
Once owned by a Quaker banking family for over 150 years, Peckover House and Gardens is a classic Georgian merchant’s town house, which is certainly worth a visit. Now in the care of National Trust, Peckover House is an oasis hidden away from the town centre with two acres of beautiful Victorian gardens.
