Detailed Description
Description
Hillside Lodge is an imposing detached double fronted property understood to date to the 1920's with later, sympathetically designed additions. The house exudes charm and character with a wealth of original detail throughout the interior.
The spacious and attractively presented accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall leading to the snug with it's cosy wood burning stove, the dining room, with a fireplace, beyond which is the main sitting room also with a wood burning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room is a particularly generous space and is smartly fitted with a sleek modern kitchen with integrated appliances. It leads to a wonderful conservatory, the perfect spot from where to enjoy the view over the garden. There is also a cloakroom. The first floor comprises five very comfortable bedrooms, the principal with an en-suite shower room, and a family bathroom also with shower.
In addition to the main dwelling there is a self contained studio apartment, perfect for housing dependent relatives but also ideal as a holiday let or permanent rental opportunity - it currently has a tenant in situ and generates an income of circa £10,800 per annum and can be sold as such or with vacant possession. The utility room and garage also form part of this building.
The gardens, which total circa 0.6 of an acre, are delightfully secluded and provide wonderful setting befitting of this exceptional home. A long driveway passes a relatively level lawned area which may be suitable for future development (subject to obtaining all necessary consents and approvals). There is ample parking at the front of the house, a vegetable garden at the side and the rear garden is perfect for alfresco entertaining.
For room sizes please refer to the floorplan.
