4 Bedroom Detached House For Sale
INTRODUCTION
North Lodge is a Grade Two Listed family home created from one of the original gate houses for neighbouring Westwood Park, a privately owned Tudor Mansion.
The house requires some cosmetic improvement but the layout is superb, measuring 2651-square feet with the majority being found on the ground floor. This includes a 40-foot double reception room and a large kitchen/breakfast room with an oil-fired Aga.
Features to note include Crittall windows, stone window surrounds, parquet flooring, two fireplaces with log burners, a bay widow in the study and some intricate brickwork.
Our clients acquired additional land in recent years to create grounds that total three acres. These include two fenced paddocks, a one-acre wood, areas of lawn, an outdoor swimming pool and pool house, three stables and two further outbuildings. There is also an area of hardstanding with a separate entrance from London Road.
