DESCRIPTION
A substantial detached and versatile cottage with later additions and now makes a spacious family home with four double bedrooms plus the addition of two further bedrooms on the ground floor although with the configuration there is the possibility of creating a one bedroom annexe. The large lounge has a rustic fireplace with log burner and in turn leads into the conservatory. There are attractive well stocked gardens, ample off road parking and detached double garage. The minstrel's gallery entrance hall is a nice feature and the property sits comfortably within the village of Beckingham. The property benefits from solar panels.

Beckingham is conveniently located for commuting to the surrounding centres of Retford, Gainsborough, Bawtry and Doncaster. From the A631, there are good road links to the wider motorway network with the A1M being to the west. Retford and Doncaster both provide mainline railway services to London Kings Cross (approximately 1 hour 30 minutes). Doncaster Airport only 30 minutes away by car. Beckingham is served by excellent local primary and secondary schools and is in the catchment area of the highly-regarded Gainsborough Grammar School.
