Description
Lakeside Lodge is a beautiful family home constructed in 2018, that is situated within a Grade II listed parkland.
The property has been completed to an extremely high specification with quality materials and building techniques throughout, giving rise to its impressive EPC rating.
The property's green credentials are excellent: There are high levels of insulation with underfloor heating, served by sophisticated nibe Air Source Heat Pump with Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery systems, creating an eco friendly and energy efficient house, with all the charm and characteristics of a Georgian style home.
The layout is highly adaptable and ideally suited to family living, and the annexe will undoubtedly be of great appeal to buyers seeking a separate space for multi-generational relatives, or for guest accommodation.
The property is approached through electrically operated gates, over a sweeping drive to a car parking and turning area, from which the garage/annexe can also be accessed. There is an Electric Vehicle charging point.
The front door opens into an impressive full-depth dining/reception hall, which features French doors to the rear, access to the kitchen, drawing room and cloakroom, and there is a staircase to the basement, and to the first and second floor levels.
The drawing room is a magnificent space, with windows to three sides and a Charlton & Jenrick A+ wood burning stove, set within a reclaimed mahogany surround fireplace. On the opposite side of the reception hall is the kitchen/breakfast room. This beautifully appointed space has a range of base and wall units as well as an island. There are several integrated appliances including two Neff ovens, an AEG induction hob with integral cleaning/extraction, a Bosch integrated dishwasher and a Franke boiling tap.
The basement level of Lakeside Lodge comprises a large home theatre which is pre-wired for a Dolby Atmos system. Off the hall is a shower room, plant room and under stairs storage. The utility/second kitchen is an excellent size and features additional storage units, a laundry cupboard with chute, a washing machine, tumble dryer, integrated freezer and a decorative cast iron fireplace with slate hearth.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom stretches the full depth of the house and has three fitted double wardrobes and a large en suite bathroom. The accommodation on this floor is completed by a second, well-proportioned bedroom and this is served by a separate shower room.
At second floor level there is a third bedroom, and a very substantial space which could be used as a fourth bedroom or a large study/playroom.
The gardens at Lakeside Lodge enjoy an outstanding aspect over a lake towards Hankelow Hall and have views over open countryside to the rear. Wrapping around the property, the gardens are mainly lawned with specimen trees, borders and a south west facing terrace.
Accessed from the drive is the detached garage/annexe. Double doors open in to the garage (which is being used as a gym), and off this is a workshop.
A separate door opens in to the hall of the annexe, off which is a downstairs shower room. On the first floor there is a large living/bedroom area with a separate kitchen, making this an ideal space for relatives or visiting guests.
