About
One of the loveliest things about our historic market town is that it still holds hidden treasures waiting to be discovered.
Tucked away in little-known corners, yet still right in the heart of the town, are some truly beautiful homes - and the charming period properties that line the River Witham have always struck me as some of its best-kept secrets.
Enjoying an enviable waterfront setting, the area is just a pleasant tree-lined stroll from the Marina, Central Park, the cobbled streets of Wormgate and the bustling Market Place itself.
Walk a little further along the riverbank and the town soon gives way to attractive riverside and woodland walks, offering a wonderfully peaceful setting that feels far removed from everyday life.
This particular property perfectly captures that sense of hidden charm.
Approached via a side lane and concealed behind secure double gates, it could easily pass unnoticed - adding yet another layer of appeal to a home already rich in character.
Outside, the property benefits from a garage, extensive block-paved parking and attractive outdoor seating areas leading to a generous lawned garden, which has all been enclosed.
The accommodation itself is arranged over three principal floors, together with an expanded loft room - one of many recent improvements by the current owners - creating an exceptionally versatile home with four bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The ground floor is particularly flexible and could comfortably function as a self-contained living space, complete with its own kitchen, lounge, bathroom and two additional interconnected rooms.
To the first floor is a beautifully appointed and updated breakfast kitchen, a welcoming lounge with wood-burning stove and a fourth bedroom or study.
The principal entrance opens onto Witham Bank West, while stairs rise to the second floor where there are three further double bedrooms, including one with an en-suite, alongside a beautifully styled family bathroom featuring twin basins, a freestanding bath and separate shower with rainfall head.
The current owners have invested significantly in the property, ensuring it is as practical as it is attractive.
Improvements include new windows and exterior doors, replacement roof tiling, the aforementioned block paving, an EV charger, loft expansion and redecoration.
Even the outside cloakroom and utility room have been refurbished.
In summary, this truly charming semi-detached home blends contemporary comforts with characterful period features, all complemented by ever-changing riverside views throughout the seasons.
