Portland Lodge is an elegant Grade II listed Georgian house sympathetically converted into 7 stylish apartments.

Portland Lodge is an elegant Grade II listed Georgian house, believed to date back to the early 19th century, and sympathetically converted into seven stylish apartments. The building retains a wealth of period character, with many original features preserved throughout. Flat 2, positioned on the lower ground floor, enjoys the rare advantage of its own private entrance and patio, creating a sense of independence within this distinguished residence.

Approached via steps leading down to its private front door, the apartment opens into an inviting entrance hall where original servants’ bells offer a charming reminder of the property’s heritage. From here, the accommodation unfolds with a cloakroom fitted with a corner WC and wash basin, along with an airing cupboard housing the Heatrae Sadia electric central heating and hot water system.

The heart of the home is the generous open plan living room and kitchen, a beautifully proportioned space measuring approximately 26' 8'' × 15' 4'' (8.12m × 4.67m). Two sash windows with secondary glazing frame views across the private patio and communal gardens, filling the room with natural light. A tiled recess with lighting and an electric fire adds a cosy focal point, while wall lights and radiators enhance the comfort of the space.

The recently updated kitchen features cream gloss cabinetry, woodgrain work surfaces, an inset electric hob with extractor hood, builtin oven, and space for a slimline dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer, and tumble dryer — all thoughtfully arranged to complement the open plan layout.

The apartment offers two well proportioned double bedrooms. Bedroom One, measuring 17' 1'' × 10' 5'' (5.20m × 3.17m), features an original style fireplace, a window, and double glazed roof lights that draw in additional daylight. Bedroom Two, at 11' 3'' × 10' 0'' (3.43m × 3.05m), includes a double glazed window and wall lighting, creating a warm and restful atmosphere.

A fully tiled bathroom completes the internal accommodation, fitted with a white suite comprising WC, wash basin, and bath with shower over, along with a heated towel rail, extractor fan, wall mirror, and cabinet.
