Set in the picturesque village of Berkswell, Carol Lodge is a striking residence where elegance, privacy, and modern luxury blend effortlessly. With approximately 1.5 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, this striking home offers an abundance of refined living space and is available with no onward chain. Following a 12-month refurbishment completed in March 2025, Carol Lodge has been comprehensively transformed and now presents in immaculate, as-new condition. It stands among the area’s most impressive family homes, ready to begin its next chapter.

The entrance hall immediately sets the tone, showcasing elegant flooring and an abundance of natural light. A staircase rises to the first floor, while double doors lead through to the principal reception rooms.

At the heart of the home lies a spectacular open-plan kitchen, breakfast, and family room. Designed for both stylish entertaining and relaxed day-to-day living, this expansive space features bespoke cabinetry, granite worktops, and premium integrated appliances. Two sets of bi-fold doors open onto the alfresco patio and gardens beyond, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. An adjoining utility room ensures practical living remains beautifully organised.

The formal dining room continues the connection with the outdoors, with patio doors leading to the charming secret garden—an idyllic setting for summer evenings. A dedicated home office provides a quiet and inspiring workspace, while the inviting sitting room features French doors framing delightful views across the grounds.

To the first floor, the landing opens into a beautifully proportioned space. The principal suite is a standout feature—flooded with natural light and enhanced by French doors opening onto a private balcony with sweeping views over the grounds. A bespoke dressing room adds charm and refinement, while the luxurious en suite bathroom provides a true sanctuary of indulgence. The second bedroom offers exceptional versatility and could easily serve as an alternative principal suite, featuring a separate lounge area, walk-in wardrobe, bespoke en suite facilities, and delightful countryside views. Three further well-appointed bedrooms and two additional bathrooms (one en suite) complete the first-floor accommodation, offering excellent flexibility for family living and guests alike.

A beautifully appointed self-contained annexe is ideal for guests, extended family, or independent living. Accessed either through double French doors or internally via the home gym, the annexe has a bright open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space filled with natural light. A generous double bedroom, contemporary family shower room, home office, and store room add to the practicality and comfort of this additional living space.

A sweeping private driveway, framed by mature trees and established shrubs, provides an impressive arrival and a sense of tranquillity and seclusion whilst providing parking for several cars and giving access to the quadruple garage.

The grounds which extend to in all about 1.5 acres feature expansive manicured lawns, vibrant flowerbeds, and a serene ornamental lake complete with a striking central fountain. A generous seating area beside the water’s edge invites relaxation, while a curtained deck overlooking the lake offers an inspiring and versatile space—perfect for yoga, meditation, or simply soaking in the surrounding natural beauty.
