"A former gate house set in a generous plot of c.0.39 of an acre, in an idyllic location sympathetically restored and improved by the current owner

Accommodation comprises; Entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen, rear lobby, shower room, two bedrooms.

Substantial plot with gated driveway parking and timber outbuilding.



The Lodge is a former gate house, believed to originally date back to 1888, which has been sympathetically restored and improved by the current owner, now offering comfortable and modern accommodation whilst retaining beautiful character features to include restored, stone mullion windows, lime plaster, pine timbers and a completely restored timber frame staircase. The cottage has been completely re wired and re plumbed and features handmade secondary glazing. The sitting room affords plenty of light for a property of its age, thanks to its dual aspect and the wood burning stove, and exposed pine floorboards add a touch of character in this clean, inviting space. A step leads down to the kitchen, which is well equipped with Victorian, terracotta tiled floors, oak worktops, an integral dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, and a Belfast sink. The rear lobby benefits from access to the garden and a newly installed shower room, complete with limestone tiled floors, underfloor heating, and a shower cubicle with a rain forest shower.
