  • Situated in the popular suburb of Humberstone
  • A spectacular open plan breakfast kitchen diner with bi folding doors and wide skylights

Introducing “East Lodge’, a striking and immediately captivating Grade II listed three-bedroom detached house, which has been sympathetically modernised with exceptional attention to detail. Offered to the market with the added benefit of no upward chain and having undergone a comprehensive programme of renovation, no expense has been spared in the meticulous care the current owner has invested in the property.

Benefiting from gas central heating throughout, the accommodation briefly comprises a spacious porch with exposed brickwork that opens into a bright and airy entrance hall. To the right, there is a beautifully presented living room featuring modern laminate flooring, multi-coloured LED mood lighting, French doors to the rear, and dual windows to the side aspect. On the left, a well-appointed snug/study (with the potential to serve as a fourth downstairs bedroom) is complete with a feature gas fireplace, creating an excellent focal point while providing ample space for free-standing furniture. To the rear of the property, and a particular highlight of this fabulous home, is the extended and stylishly appointed fitted kitchen. With exceptional attention to detail, this space blends character with exposed brickwork and modern living. The open-plan kitchen boasts modern spotlights throughout, a useful skylight above the central island unit, ample surface preparation area, and storage. The kitchen includes an electric hob (with the option to switch to gas if desired), an integrated oven, dishwasher, and washing machine, along with an American-style fridge-freezer and bi-fold doors to the rear aspect, allowing an abundance of natural light into the space. A modern and well-appointed three-piece wet room completes the downstairs accommodation.

Ascending the stairs, you will find an incredibly spacious landing with high ceilings, a unique lower panelled boarding design, and wooden sash windows to the front aspect. This space leads to three generous bedrooms and a stylish three-piece family bathroom. All the bedrooms offer ample space for free-standing furniture, benefiting from wool carpets and wooden sash windows throughout. The three-piece family bathroom, like the rest of the property, is tastefully decorated and completes the upstairs accommodation.

To the rear of the property, there is a recently landscaped and spacious East-facing garden, mainly laid to lawn, with a raised decking area. The property offers excellent potential for further extension to both the side and rear, with a discreet courtyard to the side of the property that could be utilised as additional usable space (subject to all necessary consents and due diligence related to listed properties). With excellent kerb appeal, the property can accommodate at least three vehicles with private gates and a gravelled driveway. Conveniently positioned on a larger-than-average corner plot, it is the agent's opinion that an early viewing is essential to appreciate this beautifully appointed and deceptively spacious family home in an excellent location.

Agent’s note: The photos used were taken when the property was occupied; the property is now empty.

Vendor comments:

" I have fully renovated the internals of the property and redesigned the floor plan to provide maximum living area. I have built a new single storey rear kitchen extension to a very high standard with bi-fold doors, a skylight, centre island, integrated appliances and a dining area space. The property also benefits from a large garden with a decked area and private gated parking for at least three cars. The property has been constructed with high quality materials and bright colours with the floors being made up of tiles, laminate or plush carpets and all the walls are freshly plastered with a unique lower panelled boarding design. There are two bathrooms, three bedrooms, two living rooms, a study room, entrance porch and much more which I'm sure the next owner will appreciate. "
