An Impressive Arts & Crafts Family Home Offering Modern Living with Period Charm, All Moments from People's Park and Grimsby Station

Perfectly positioned just a short stroll from Grimsby's much-loved People’s Park and the mainline railway station, this remarkable detached home delivers the ideal balance of period elegance and contemporary family living. Built circa 1915 in the distinguished Arts & Crafts style, the property has been meticulously maintained and upgraded, retaining its wealth of original features.

While honouring its architectural heritage, the home has been thoughtfully enhanced with modern comforts such as bespoke hand-crafted kitchens, contemporary bathrooms, and flexible living spaces, making it ideal for today’s lifestyles. From the generous living areas to the beautifully landscaped south-facing gardens, every aspect of this property has been designed to offer both style and substance.

Step Inside

A period entrance door opens to a welcoming entrance lobby, where original panelling, parquet flooring, and a charming hand-painted fireplace set the tone. The entrance hall features ornate windows, hand-crafted detailing, and a cleverly screened cloakroom with WC.

The principal reception rooms retain much of their Arts & Crafts character. The formal sitting room enjoys a dual aspect, original parquet flooring, picture rails, and a wood-burning stove nestled in a granite hearth. The second reception room offers flexibility, ideal as a lounge or formal dining space, with restored copper fireplace, curved bay window, and a charming serving hatch linking through to the kitchen.

The heart of the home is the superb 27' bespoke kitchen/breakfast room — a striking space combining handcrafted cabinetry, iroko wood worktops, a central island with breakfast bar, integrated appliances, and a stainless steel range cooker. There is ample space for casual dining, with a designated area perfect for everyday family meals. French doors open onto the sun terrace, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor entertaining areas.

Beyond, an inner hall leads to a large contemporary shower room, utility room with extensive storage and preparation space, and a magnificent party/games room — equally suited as a home business suite, gym, or additional living space, with its own French doors to the gardens.

Two separate staircases rise to the first floor, providing excellent flexibility for multi-generational living or guest accommodation. The main landing enjoys further period features, including a stunning leaded feature window.

The principal bedroom is an elegant retreat, complete with fitted wardrobes, original cupboards, and a beautifully appointed en-suite with twin sinks and walk-in shower. Several further bedrooms enjoy fitted storage and original built-in cupboards. A further stylish family bathroom features a freestanding bath and decorative tiling, while an additional first-floor sitting/reading area adds to the home’s versatility.

Step Outside

Discreetly screened from the road by mature hedging, electric wooden gates open onto a cobbled driveway providing ample parking. The integral brick garage offers secure parking and has the convenience of internal access to the main house.

The extensive south-facing rear garden has been expertly designed for outdoor living, with spacious paved terraces ideal for alfresco dining, a mature lawn, and secluded seating areas perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A charming brick-built covered pavilion provides a sheltered retreat for summer parties, while the brick garden store adds further practicality.

The orientation of the house maximises sunlight throughout the day, with most principal rooms benefitting from garden views and natural light, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere year-round.
