Positioned along a quiet road with far-reaching, elevated views across open countryside, Samsons Lodge is a wonderful period property which is believed to date in part to the 1600s, sitting centrally to its plot. Having originally formed a series of terraced cottages, the property has been beautifully enhanced by the current owners, and transformed into the light, spacious house it is today. With period features throughout, the property offers flexible accommodation set over two floors, providing ample space for modern family life.

A welcoming reception hall leads through to the majority of the ground floor accommodation; comprising an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room and three spacious reception rooms including a 27ft drawing room. There is also a utility room, pantry and two cloakrooms.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom, whilst five further double bedrooms offer flexible, light spaces with built-in storage and spectacular views. Two family bathrooms complete the accommodation.

Samsons Lodge is ideally positioned within its plot of just over 2 acres, with the gardens wrapping around the house. Extending along the full length of the property to the front elevation is a raised, flagstone terrace with wrought-iron pergola above. Overlooking the stunning wildlife pond and mature trees, it provides an idyllic setting for al fresco dining or entertaining; the terrace being accessed directly from both the kitchen along with two other reception rooms.

The remainder of the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and are interspersed with ideal areas to sit and enjoy the surroundings; walls providing clever dividers, mature trees and shrubs, as well as ample room to play.

A wealth of outbuildings offer a further dimension to this family home, with ideal space to work from home, workshops, garaging, wood stores and cart lodge. Furthermore, a barn offers ideal potential for development, subject to the necessary consents either as an annexe or holiday let. However, the building also makes for a fabulous party and entertaining space, with mezzanine floor above.
