BURNTSTUMP LODGE
Burntstump Lodge comes to the market offering the exciting opportunity to acquire a one-of-a-kind family home brimming with character and charm. Originally constructed in 1902, this former schoolhouse was built to serve the children of workers on the Seely Estate and in 1977 it was converted and repurposed for residential use. It has continued to be upgraded and updated since this time, including by its current occupiers, and what stands today is fantastic dwelling of generous proportions that benefits from exceptional gardens to all sides. Just a stone’s throw from the picturesque Burntstump Country Park, with miles of woodland walks on its doorstep and within easy reach of a host of comprehensive amenities, Burntstump Lodge is a special and unique property which is certain to impress.

THE ACCOMMODATION
Burntstump Lodge enjoys approximately 2852sq.ft of living accommodation to the main house, which is practically arranged over 2 floors. Upon entering the property you are immediately greeted by an entrance porch offering useful space for cloaks, this then leads on to the inner hall of the home. Much of the principal ground floor accommodation leads off this inner hall which, in brief, comprises of: a truly impressive principal reception room with vaulted ceiling, two storey window overlooking the rear garden, feature fireplace and a spiral staircase leading to a galleried mezzanine area, a beautifully appointed breakfast kitchen with central island and ample work surface space, a cosy snug, garden room, fully fitted utility room, 2 double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom. To the first floor and leading off the mezzanine landing/ office space, there are an additional 2 double bedrooms, both of which enjoy dressing areas and en-suite shower rooms, with one also benefiting from a fabulous balcony.

GARDENS & GROUNDS
Externally, the property enjoys circa 0.75 of an acre of beautifully established and private gardens to 3 sides. Set back off the main road, the attractive frontage of this home immediately stands out and you instantly appreciate the character and uniqueness of the property.

The rear and side gardens offer fantastic space for families to enjoy, with substantial lawns, established trees and shrubbery, well-stocked borders, paved pathways, a vegetable garden and a generous terrace directly accessed from the main reception rooms.
