This II* listed townhouse forms part of arguably Spalding's foremost Georgian terrace, offering elegant accommodation and a convenient position near the town centre and railway station
Dating from about 1825, the property offers accommodation over three floors and a basement cellar, with attractive views over the River Welland and, to the rear, over the garden.
The house has bright and spacious principal accommodation with high ceilings, large windows and attractive features. The front door, beneath fanlight, opens to a large vestibule. The drawing room has a large bay window and marble fireplace with wood burning stove, whilst double doors open to the dining room, making the two rooms an ideal suite for receiving guests.
The hallway continues past the cellar workshop access and cloakroom, to the kitchen. The kitchen suite incorporates a John Lewis double oven and Smeg gas hob, and has ample space for a table. Two steps descend to the adjoining garden room, from which there is access to, and attractive views of, the garden.
At first floor, the entire frontage is occupied by bedroom one, an elegant double bedroom with three sash windows, each with working shutters. Bedroom two is a large double. The full-suite family bathroom and bedroom three (currently an office) are accessed from a rear half landing.
There are three further second floor bedrooms and a second family bathroom, each with attractive elevated views over the River Welland or garden.
OUTSIDE
The front, east facing, lawn has a low box hedge and fragrant lavender around the bay window. The principal walled garden lies to the rear of the house. A large flagged terrace adjoins the house with the lawn stretching away from the house with a pathway leading to the garden's shed (with electric power socket), past flowering borders and a mature cherry tree

I grew up in a period terraced townhouse and love the symmetry, features and proportions that they generally offer. I also absolutely love the look of this beautiful house, which has a lovely feel and attractive views over the gardens and the River Welland. Couple this with a surprisingly peaceful position so close to Spalding's town centre and close proximity to its favoured Grammar and Prep schools, as well as its railway station, and this is a fabulous family home.
