Description
Black Notley Lodge is an elegant and prominent Grade II* listed family home dating back to the late 17th century with early 19th century additions. It boasts symmetrical red and blue brick elevations, which add to its appeal. The house offers a variety of impressive original features, such as sash and arched windows, exposed timbers, charming feature fireplaces, wood panelling, coving, and ornate cornicing.
Spanning over four floors, the property offers over 5,100 sq ft of meticulously presented living space. Additionally, it benefits from a desirable and accessible location, with a private garden and gated sweeping drive.
The grand entrance hallway, with an elaborate staircase, leads directly to the courtyard. Thick timber doors open to four versatile reception spaces, each boasting many period features associated with a property of this age. Adjacent to the front-facing sitting room is a family room with a window seat. On the opposite side, the spacious reception room has been expanded to accommodate a sitting area and a flexible space towards the rear, with double doors leading to the terrace. A staircase leads to the cellar below, which remains cool and houses a cloakroom. Additionally, the ground floor features an attractive kitchen and dining area, as well as a utility room. The kitchen is equipped with custom-made cabinetry, a butler sink, a central island, an AGA range and a separate cooker. There is ample space for dining and access to the south-west facing conservatory. Towards the rear of the ground floor is a bright and well-appointed self-contained one-bedroom annexe.
The first floor offers generous space and includes a family bathroom with a freestanding clawfoot bathtub. There are also three more elegant and well-lit bedrooms, one of which is the principal bedroom with its own en suite bathroom. On the second floor, there are three more well-proportioned bedrooms, all of which are served by a shower room.
Outside
This handsome period home is accessed through brick-pillared wrought-iron gates that lead to a spacious gravelled driveway. The perimeter of the property is enclosed by towering brick walls, with mature specimen trees that are strategically placed throughout the garden. The property boasts landscaped formal lawns, which are complemented by well-stocked plant and shrub borders, a central brick pathway, a paved sun terrace and a brick-laid courtyard that is ideal for outdoor dining.
All in around 0.52 of an acre.
