Description
The current owners acquired Hammerton Lodge in 2020 and have since completed a comprehensive series of renovations and upgrades, making this property a standout in both design and functionality. Spanning over 3,000 square feet across two floors, the home has been meticulously updated, blending period features with contemporary styling.
Key Features & Upgrades:
Kitchen & Orangery: The owners extended the kitchen by adding a stunning Orangery, which boasts high-quality Minster windows in a Heritage wood-effect style. This space is flooded with natural light and features remote-control blinds for the lantern and south-facing windows. The kitchen has been completely refitted with solid wood painted units from 1909 Kitchens, including two NEFF ovens, a NEFF dishwasher, warming drawers, new Quartz worktops, and a Qooker instant hot water tap. Plaster coving and new LED ceiling lights complete the modern kitchen.
Living Spaces: The Lounge has been thoughtfully modernised with the installation of a feature LPG-compatible log-effect living flame gas fire, set within a stunning stone surround and hearth. New gas feeds were installed, along with a new modern grill for the radiator under the large bay window. The Dining Room's original parquet flooring has been sanded and revarnished, and the ceiling replastered with a new feature pendant light and plaster ceiling rose.
Master Bedroom Suite: A new luxurious master bedroom suite has been created, including a walk-in wardrobe (formerly bedroom five) with fitted units by Hammond. French doors now lead out to a new balcony with wrought iron semi-circular railings, offering delightful views over the front garden. The en-suite bathroom has been fully refitted, with new lighting and coving installed. Additionally, Sonos ceiling speakers provide the perfect sound ambiance throughout the suite.
Home Office: The home office has been completely refitted with bespoke units by Hammond, new LED ceiling lights, and newly plastered ceilings, creating a quiet and functional work environment.
Bathrooms: Both the house bathroom and master en-suite have been fully upgraded, with modern features and stylish finishes. New feature shelving with LED lighting has been added to the house bathroom, and the downstairs WC has been fitted with a new vanity unit and sink.
Additional Renovations: The property features a fully renovated utility and boot room with wood-painted units and Quartz worktops. The original loft has been transformed into practical storage, with a new folding ladder and boarded area for easy access. Every room has been repainted, with new carpets throughout. A new Vailant boiler, pump, radiators, and updated piping ensure the home is efficiently heated.
Exterior & Grounds: The property is set within beautifully landscaped grounds, offering a true sense of privacy and tranquillity. The outdoor area has been thoughtfully designed, providing plenty of space for both relaxation and recreation. A spacious paddock and orchard add to the rural charm, with the paddock offering potential for those with equestrian interests or simply for enjoying the open space. At the heart of the garden is a stunning outdoor heated swimming pool, ideal for enjoying the outdoors year-round.
The pool house has been fully renovated, including the installation of an insulated vaulted ceiling and new uPVC double glazing, making it a practical and comfortable space to use throughout the seasons. New lighting has also been added, enhancing the atmosphere during evening hours.
The beautifully manicured front garden is enhanced by new feature lighting that highlights the mature pine tree, adding a striking focal point to the landscape. A new gazebo, erected in the outdoor area in front of the kitchen, provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining and entertaining.
Security and privacy are top priorities at Hammerton Lodge. The property is accessed through a newly installed, app-controlled electric gate system, with a video panel located in the hall for added convenience. Extra security lighting around the grounds further ensures peace of mind.
The paddock also features a partially renovated shed, which is a work in progress and has been rewired in two sections, offering additional storage or functional space.
In addition to these thoughtful updates, the property also benefits from an electric vehicle (EV) charger, making it an ideal choice for eco-conscious buyers.
With its combination of luxury living, outstanding attention to detail, and exceptional outdoor spaces, Hammerton Lodge offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both countryside living and modern convenience.
