Description
De Vaux Lodge has been sympathetically restored and offers generous and elegant south facing accommodation with a wealth of period detail.
De Vaux Lodge was originally part of the College de Valle which was founded by Bishop Bridport in 1261 as a theological college and continued there until the Dissolution. Following this it is believed to have been a canons home as well as a women’s penitentiary prior to being converted into a private house.
A delightful entrance hall with stone floor leads to the ground floor reception rooms which include a drawing room with wood burning stove with stone surround, sitting room and dining room, all with French doors leading out to the terrace. There is a study and guest cloakroom.
Kitchen with bespoke fitted oak units, granite work surfaces, 3 oven gas Aga, china cupboard and pantry, and links to the utility room and secondary W.C.
An attractive staircase leads to the first floor which enjoys the benefit of a wonderful arched window on the return with views of the Cathedral spire. The first floor comprises a spacious southeast facing master bedroom, 3 further bedrooms of which two are ensuite, and a family bathroom. There are two generous lofts, both with fixed loft ladders, with boarded areas.
The house is approached through double gates which lead to a parking area for four cars, a brick-built garage with storage, car port and garden store. The formal front garden boasts attractive French cobbles, and a variety of yew and box and hornbeam. The pretty rear garden is well stocked and lies to the south of the house, with beautifully planted borders, carefully planted shrubs and specimen trees and one of the most locally-recognisable Wisteria plants, trained along the boundary wall.
There is a carport and single garage, both with adjacent storerooms. There is also eaves storage above the garage.
The house, being within the ‘Liberty of The Close’, entitles the owners to use the Cathedral for christenings, weddings and funerals.
