The Property SUBSTANTIAL FIVE BEDROOM DETACHED FAMILY HOME-SOUTHGATE-ORDSALL
A superbly presented and exceptionally versatile five-bedroom detached family home, occupying a desirable position in Southgate, Ordsall, Retford, with beautiful countryside views to the rear.

Designed with modern family life in mind, the property offers an impressive combination of three reception rooms, home office, utility room, downstairs WC and a superb kitchen/living/dining space.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive kitchen, living and dining area, featuring a breakfast bar, range cooker and an extensive range of wall and base units. This sociable space is perfectly suited to both everyday family life and entertaining.
The ground floor further benefits from a separate sitting room, lounge with an open fireplace & chimney, that would allow for a log burner to be fitted if desired. There is dining room, dedicated home office, providing plenty of flexibility for growing families, working from home or accommodating guests.

A separate family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.
The second floor provides two further good-sized bedrooms, together with useful eaves storage – ideal for older children, teenagers, guests or those looking for additional hobby space.
Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight, being predominantly laid to lawn with established shrubs and a dedicated seating area. Open countryside views stretch beyond the rear boundary, creating a peaceful backdrop and a wonderful sense of space.
To the front is a double detached garage, providing excellent parking and storage.
