5 bed detached house for sale

Abbey Lane, Woodhall Spa LN10

Welcome to this stunning five-bedroom detached house situated in the desirable location of Abbey Lane, Woodhall Spa. The house was originally built by The Railway in c1860 as a 2 up 2 down cottage for the gatekeeper who worked the level crossing that existed on Abbey Lane; hence the house name, Gatehouse. When the railway closed in the 60's the house remained occupied for a while but eventually fell into disrepair.

The cottage was bought in the mid 90's by the current owners who completely renovated and extended the cottage into large, modern, spacious family home it currently is. Whilst adding modern features such as underfloor heating throughout and numerous double sockets in every room, every effort was made to retain, where appropriate, the original character of the property.

The result is a house unique in Woodhall Spa, sitting on a sizeable plot just off Witham Road, a 10 min walk from the centre of the village. In addition to the living space, a large, beautifully landscaped garden and patio offers ample opportunity to extend family life outside into a sheltered and private space.
