6 bed detached house for sale

Little London, Spalding, Lincolnshire PE11

A substantial detached period home set within mature, private grounds, offering exceptional scope to create a bespoke family residence

Description
The White House is an impressive individual period property dating from the 1930s, quietly positioned within a generous and exceptionally private plot, screened by mature trees and established planting. Enjoying a non-estate setting and approached via a sweeping driveway, the property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home with significant potential for enhancement.

Laid out over three floors, the house offers well-proportioned and versatile accommodation extending to approximately six bedrooms, four principal reception rooms, and extensive ancillary space, making it ideally suited to modern family living once sensitively modernised.

The House
The accommodation is arranged over three floors and is typical of houses of its era, with generous ceiling heights, wide hallways, and an excellent sense of space throughout.
At ground floor level, a central reception hall forms the heart of the house, leading to a series of well-proportioned reception rooms including a formal drawing room, dining room, sitting room and sunroom. These rooms enjoy pleasant outlooks over the gardens and provide flexibility for entertaining, family living, or home-working arrangements. A kitchen breakfast room is supported by a separate utility room, pantry, and ancillary stores.

To the upper floors, the house provides up to six bedrooms, arranged across the first and second floors, along with two bathrooms and extensive storage. The principal bedrooms are particularly generous, reflecting the house’s original design as a substantial family residence. The second floor offers further flexible accommodation, ideal for older children, guests, or study space.

While the property would benefit from a programme of modernisation and updating, it offers an excellent canvas on which to create an elegant and comfortable home tailored to individual tastes.

Gardens & Grounds
One of the outstanding features of The White House is its large and predominantly private plot, surrounded by mature trees that provide a high degree of seclusion. The gardens are well-established and lie mainly to the front and sides of the property, with lawns, screening and planting that create an attractive and tranquil setting.

The property is approached via a long private driveway leading to a wide turning circle and ample parking. There is a double garage complemented by a workshop and associated storage, making the property well suited for those requiring space for hobbies, vehicles, or practical use.

The White House is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home in a mature and private setting, offering scale, character, and significant potential. With sympathetic modernisation, it has the makings of a truly impressive long term family residence.
