Cheapside, Waltham, DN37

Originally built in the mid-1800s and thoughtfully extended over the years, this distinctive four-bedroom cottage on Cheapside offers a rare combination of heritage character and generous modern living space.

Tucked just behind the Waltham memorial, it enjoys a wonderfully central yet private position, with a layout that has evolved to suit contemporary family life while retaining the warmth and individuality of its period origins. With features such as a cellar, multiple reception rooms and a bright open-plan kitchen-dining-conservatory space, this is a home that feels both unique and highly practical.

Inside
The interior blends cottage charm with surprisingly spacious, modern living areas. The front lounge retains a cosy, traditional feel with its fireplace, wooden flooring and deep window seat, creating an inviting space to relax. A second sitting room provides further flexibility for families, hobbies or quiet evenings.
The heart of the home is the extended kitchen and dining area, opening into a bright conservatory that floods the space with natural light and connects beautifully with the garden. The kitchen itself is well-appointed with classic cabinetry, warm tones and plenty of storage, while the dining area easily accommodates family gatherings and everyday living.
Upstairs, the property offers four bedrooms, each with its own character and outlook. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite, while the additional bedrooms are well-proportioned and served by a modern shower room. A particularly charming feature is the cellar, accessed from beneath the stairs — a rare and atmospheric space ideal for storage, hobbies or even future development.
Throughout the home, original touches sit comfortably alongside contemporary finishes, creating a warm, lived-in feel that suits both families and buyers seeking something with personality.

Outside
The cottage enjoys both a front garden and a private rear garden, offering outdoor space that is unusually generous for a property of this age and position. The front garden provides a welcoming approach, while the rear garden is a versatile, enclosed space with lawned areas, planting and room for multiple uses — from outdoor dining and children’s play to gardening or simply enjoying the sunshine. The conservatory opens directly onto the garden, enhancing the indoor-outdoor flow and making the space ideal for entertaining or relaxing.

Location
Positioned just behind the memorial in the heart of Waltham, the cottage enjoys one of the village’s most convenient and desirable settings. Everything is within easy reach — independent shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs, the Co-op, medical facilities and well-regarded schools. Waltham’s friendly community feel, excellent transport links into Grimsby and Cleethorpes, and attractive green spaces make it a consistently popular choice for families, professionals and downsizers alike. This property offers the rare chance to own a character home with substantial space in a prime village location.
