5 bedroom detached house for sale

Sitting along the banks of the River Welland, in a tranquil village setting, welcome to 170 Eastgate. Completely renovated and extended in recent years by the current owners, it is now a spacious, five-bedroom family home, with the unique benefit of fishing and mooring rights, offering an idyllic lifestyle to its next custodians.

Welcome Home

Turn off Eastgate, and park on the substantial driveway ahead of the double garage before making your way inside. A contemporary front door opens to reveal an impressive double height entrance hallway, flourished with light from the large window to the front.

Culinary Delights

A celebration of light and space, the stylish, modern kitchen breakfast room towards the rear is the heart of the home. Sleek, handleless cabinetry houses built-in appliances that include two fridge freezers, Neff induction hob, and oven, while the spacious central island – with undermounted sink with boiling water tap - will draw family and friends together to relax, dine and catch up on the day’s events. Soak up the views of the verdant garden beyond; in warmer months, throw open the sliding doors to the terrace, creating a fantastic space for parties and al fresco dining. The relaxed seating area to the side of the kitchen could also be used to house a large dining table and chairs.

Practical Places

Keeping the beautiful kitchen chore and clutter free, a thoughtfully designed large utility room is conveniently tucked away to the side of the kitchen. An internal door leads into the double garage, and there is direct access to the garden, making for swift entry and exit with muddy boots and paws after you’ve made the most of the local countryside walks.

Flair and Flow

Returning to the entrance hall, a door leads into a formal dining room; consider the potential to use this as a playroom, cinema room or spacious home office. On the other side of the hallway lies the capacious sitting room. Dual aspect, sliding doors connect with the garden, while a cosy woodburning stove ensures warmth in the winter months.

Rest and Refresh

Ascend the stairs to the galleried landing, beautifully dressed in natural light from the large feature window to the front. 170 Eastgate has five generously-sized bedrooms, each with its own individual character. Visiting family and friends will feel at home in the guest suite, with its idyllic views out over the rear garden from the Juliet balcony, and a sumptuous en suite shower room. Serving the three bedrooms that sit at the front of the home is the impressive, family bathroom with separate bathtub and waterfall shower.

Pocket of Paradise

An oasis of calm, the spacious principal suite is a peaceful and serene haven, with French doors opening to a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden. Refresh and revive in the bountiful, boutique en suite shower room. The principal suite is completed by a generous walk-in wardrobe.

A Riverside Retreat

Peaceful and private, the substantial garden at 170 Eastgate invites you to entertain and unwind outdoors. A broad terrace area is cocooned by mature borders and hedging, and draws warmth from the sunlight throughout the day in this sunny, south-west facing garden. Beyond, steps lead up to the large, lush green lawn, perfect for family games. Mature, well stocked borders and trees create interest as you wend your way through the garden, drawn towards the soothing sound of the running river, the Welland. A truly idyllic spot, the mooring and fishing rights afforded to the owners of 170 Eastgate mean you can mess about on the river to your heart’s content.
