See inside: ‘Charming’ lock keeper’s cottage with views of the River Trent hits the market for bargain price
It’s accessible via a private footbridge
A “charming” lock keeper’s cottage with breath-taking views over the River Trent has hit the market for £450,000.
The Old Lock House, situated between East Stoke weir and Hazelford Lock near Fiskerton, has recently been listed by Gascoines estate agents.
Lucky new owners will have access to three generously sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area that opens onto a private patio overlooking the river.
The property includes a home office space, ample storage throughout, and a detached garage and parking on the other side of the footbridge.
It’s accessible by a foot bridge across the River Trent, with easy access to Nottingham, Newark and Lincoln via the A46 and rail routes.
Luke Saywell, partner at Gascoines, said: “This former lock keeper’s cottage epitomises the charm and quality that makes riverside properties on the Trent such an appealing prospect.
“Its unique location provides direct access to riverside walks and a vibrant local community, enhancing the appeal of this exceptional residence.
The property offers serene views in the countryside 13 miles north-east of Nottingham, as well as being close by to Newark-on-Trent and the market town of Southwell.
“It is ideally positioned for retirees or working professionals looking for an attractive property to commute while being able to explore nature, which we are proud to exclusively bring to market.”
