Description

The Property
The Lodge represents a unique opportunity to purchase this Tudor inspired property which was most likely built in the mid-19th Century. Originally the lodge house for nearby Stoke Hall now the property would make an excellent family home in the ever popular village of Stoke Holy Cross. Whilst having had a major overhaul and programme of renovation works in the current owners tenure, careful attention to preserving the character features both inside and out make this a truly must see home.

With sandblasted beams throughout and fireplaces to both the sitting room and of particular note in the dining room with charming stone surround as a genuine eye catching centrepiece. To the first floor the property offers four double bedrooms including the principal with en suite facilities. This gives the property the chance to be used as one of the most unique family homes in the area.

Outside
Situated in grounds of about 0.52 of an acre and backing onto open countryside gives the house a real sense of space as it sits handsomely in the plot. The garden is mainly laid to lawn but with borders of mature trees and hedging to create a good deal of natural privacy. Just off the kitchen is a patio terrace perfect for entertaining with far reaching views across the fields.

Ample off road parking is provided by the large driveway
approached through the five bar gate leading to an integral garage. Off of the garage is a handy workshop and access into the property internally.
