Property of the Month: A Spectacular Victorian Home with Roof Terrace Views & Gated Parking (Retford
Have you ever envisaged yourself in a luxury style home that honestly takes your breathe away. Then look no further than The Gables in Retford.
This month’s Property of the Month is exactly that: a spectacular Victorian home, beautifully positioned in a sought-after area, offering the space, style and flexibility that busy family life demands.
✨ Where Period Charm Meets Modern Family Living
From the moment you arrive, this home makes a statement, not just in its classic Victorian presence, but in the way it’s been fully decorated and refurbished by the current vendors, including a new heating system and rewire.
Inside, you’ll find over 2,600 sq ft of internal space, the sort of footprint that gives everyone room to breathe, grow, work and relax.
🛏️ Space for Everyone: 4/5 Bedrooms (Two En-Suites)
One of the standout features here is the sheer bedroom flexibility. With four/five good size bedrooms (including two with en-suite bathrooms), this home adapts brilliantly whether you need:
- dedicated space for teenagers
- a guest suite
- a home office (or two!)
- or the option of a fifth bedroom depending on lifestyle
It’s the ideal setup for families who need their home to work hard, without feeling cramped.
🌄 The Roof Terrace Balcony: Countryside Views on Tap
Not many properties can offer this, and it’s a genuine wow-factor: a roof terrace balcony with vast countryside views. It’s the perfect spot for:
- morning coffee with a view
- sunset drinks
- or simply taking a breather at the end of the day
This is one of those features that makes a home feel like a lifestyle upgrade.
🍽️ A Kitchen/Diner Built for Proper Living
At the heart of the home sits a stunning kitchen/diner, complete with:
- separate pantry
- fitted appliances
- and a large Smeg range cooker
It’s made for real life, family meals, hosting, entertaining, and those busy weekday mornings where everything happens at once.
🌳 Gardens, Courtyard & Outdoor Space to Match
Step outside and you’ll find a home that delivers as much externally as it does inside:
- Large garden with mature trees
- Separate courtyard garden (ideal for a more private seating area, outdoor dining, or a sunny retreat)
It’s a great balance of “space to enjoy” and “space that feels established”.
🚗 Gated Parking + Double Garage (With Mezzanine Storage)
Parking and storage are often deal-makers — and here you’ve got both covered.
- Detached double garage with huge mezzanine storage
- Gated off-road parking for several vehicles
Whether you’ve got multiple drivers, a camper van, or simply want secure space for work equipment/hobbies, it’s all here.
📍 Location & Convenience: The Best of Both Worlds
For commuters and families, this location is hard to ignore:
- Five-minute drive to Retford train station
- Direct route to King’s Cross in under 90 minutes
- Local primary & secondary schools within walking distance
So you get countryside-feel views… without losing day-to-day convenience.
