Description
A BEAUTIFULLY RESTORED ARTS & CRAFTS GATE LODGE WITH PRIVATE GARDENS AND COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS
Positioned at the original entrance to historic Wicksted Hall, The Lodge is a striking Arts & Crafts residence that has been comprehensively restored and reimagined to create a beautiful country home of exceptional character and quality.
Occupying private gardens extending to approximately 0.2 acres, the property enjoys a unique setting, combining the architectural prestige of a historic country estate with the independence, privacy and practicality of a freehold detached home.
The handsome red brick elevations, decorative Arts & Crafts detailing, slate roof and prominent chimney stacks immediately establish the property's heritage credentials. Yet behind the period façade lies an entirely different proposition: a thoughtfully renovated home designed to meet the expectations of modern buyers.
The result is a rare combination of heritage architecture and contemporary comfort, allowing purchasers to enjoy the charm and individuality of a historic property without the extensive renovation projects often associated with period homes.
THE ACCOMMODATION
Every aspect of the interior has been carefully upgraded to create a home that feels both elegant and practical. The first floor flooring, doors and staircase has been beautifully restored, The ground floor has been completely refitted with underfloor heating, new wooden flooring to the hall and sitting room with limestone and granite tiles to the kitchen and bathroom.
Natural light floods through the accommodation, enhancing the quality of the finishes and creating bright, welcoming living spaces throughout. Stunning aged brass is used throughout the property whilst the handmade bespoke kitchen cabinetry offers the perfect spot to sit and look out over the rear gardens to the paddocks beyond.
The layout provides well-balanced accommodation comprising reception space, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms, all presented to a standard that allows immediate occupation.
Whether as a permanent residence, weekend retreat or investment property, The Lodge offers buyers a truly turnkey opportunity.
THE SETTING
The setting is one of the property's greatest assets.
Positioned at the main entrance Gates to Wicksted Hall, The Lodge enjoys a distinguished arrival while retaining its own private identity and defined boundaries.
