Built in 1921, later extended, and recently transformed by a wide ranging renovation project, No. 235 Scartho Road is a wonderful detached residence offering stunning accommodation which must be viewed to be appreciated. It enjoys a superb level of screened privacy, it stands within grounds of around one third of an acre and is just a stones throw from the heart of Scartho village.
Principal features of the accommodation include the elegant Reception Hall from where the spelled balustrade staircase leads to the first floor, a useful Cloakroom with enclosed toilet cubicle, the flexible Sitting/Dining Room with a classic fireplace and lovely views of the front garden and the impressive Lounge with its burnished cast iron fireplace and glazed double doors opening to the front garden. The signature room of the house is undoubtedly the amazing Living Kitchen which extends to over 31'0 in length, has the benefit of underfloor heating, and opens up to the garden through wide bifold doors. There is space for dining and relaxing and the kitchen area is superb with ranges of grey cabinets with integrated appliances (fridge/freezer, microwave and dishwasher), a central island with breakfast bar overhang and wine fridge, and a superb freestanding Stoves range cooker, Bosch microwave etc etc. A useful Pantry leads off this room and the rear lobby gives access to a wonderful Utility Room with a range of cabinets and provision for appliances.
The first floor accommodation is equally impressive with pride of place being afforded to the 22'0 plus Master Bedroom complete with built-in wardrobes, a Juliet balcony overlooking the rear garden and its own stunning ensuite Shower Room with underfloor heating, twin basins, a W.C., a double clear shower enclosure and a built-in storage cupboard.
Two of the three further Bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobes, the gallery landing is a treat to see and the Family Bathroom exudes style with its white brick laid tiling, classic suite and separate shower enclosure.
The property has the benefit of gas central heating, uPVC framed double glazing, a security alarm system and an electric vehicle charging point.
The unexpectedly large grounds are undoubtedly one of the properties most endearing features with the fully screened front garden being as equally suitable for children playing, socialising with friends etc as the rear. A long driveway provides space for several vehicles and double gates enclose an inner driveway and the Double Garage with its electric door,. The rear garden is extensive and is principally lawned, enhanced by strategically positioned terraces and sitting areas and bordered by fencing and high hedges for maximum privacy.
The "village" of Scartho provides a good range of facilities including specialist retailers, general stores, hot food takeaways and a popular Public House, the Rose and Crown. Schools are within reach and regular buses serve the general area.
All in all No. 235 Scartho Road is a classic home of the highest calibre with changes made within the last few years to give the house the accommodation any modern family buyer will desire. Viewing is highly recommended! EPC Rating - E.
