Detached house for sale in Windrush Lake, Spine Road, South Cerney GL7

The current owners purchased this lodge when it was first built and have cared for and maintained it exceptionally well throughout their tenure with all windows being replaced with UPVC double glazing in recent years. This is one of only a handful of detached turret lodges on Isis & Windrush Lakes which brings with it an increased sense of privacy versus the more plentiful terraced versions.

The lodge is surrounded by manicured communal grounds and has a sun terrace wrapping around 270 degrees of the property making it a perfect spot for sun chasing. There are two allocated parking spaces to the front with a paved path leading to the decking and covered entrance porch.

Step through the front door and you are welcomed to a bright entrance porch with a downstairs WC, stairs leading to the first floor and a door through to the reception room. Pass through here and you will find a beautifully bright space with three sets of French doors opening onto the sun terrace. There is ample space for a three piece suite, dining table and TV unit. An archway brings you through to the fully fitted kitchen with an integrated dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer and gas central heating boiler.

Head up to the first floor landing there are two bedrooms and a family bathroom. Bedroom two has a fitted wardrobe and space for either two single beds or a kingsize with a view across to the lakes beyond the lodges opposite. Bedroom three is a very comfortable single with a fitted wardrobe and space for a single bed or perhaps bunk beds. Carry on up to the second floor there is a large double width store cupboard on the landing before you reach the full floor master bedroom with en suite bathroom.

Outside, the sun terrace wraps around the lodge and is enclosed on all sides which makes it safe for young ones or four legged friends to roam about. There is a very handy store cupboard for BBQs, furniture or sports equipment.

Facilities at the resort are plentiful including three tennis courts (one floodlit), two fishing lakes, children's play areas
