Risegate Road, Spalding, PE11

Dating from around 1824, this detached three-bedroom cottage in Gosberton Risegate combines period features with a range of useful living and ancillary spaces. The ground floor includes three reception rooms, with exposed brickwork, beams and fireplaces, including an open fire in the lounge and a wood burner in the sitting room. The sitting room connects to the kitchen diner, which opens onto a private courtyard, and a shower room completes the ground-floor accommodation. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom with a roll-top style bath. The property retains its traditional character, while the layout offers scope for a buyer to update or adapt the accommodation to suit their requirements. The grounds extend to approximately a third of an acre and include an established garden, mature trees and a separate summer house currently used as a games room. A courtyard links the house to a utility area, a separate storage and gym room, and a detached barn of approximately 46 sq m, currently used for workshop and storage purposes. The barn has power, water, lighting and vehicle access. Any alternative use or development would be subject to the necessary planning permissions. A potting shed and driveway parking for up to six vehicles are also included. Gosberton Risegate is a village in South Holland, with local amenities in nearby Gosberton and a wider range of shops and services in Spalding and Boston. The surrounding area is rural, with local routes through the Fen countryside.
