Description

Originally forming part of a much larger stone house, Weston Lodge is believed to date from around 1840, and comprises a spacious period property of immense appeal. Principal room sizes are generous, and most rooms have a beautiful outlook across the fine rear gardens, the land in total extending to approaching an acre.

There are many original features. These include a wonderful 20' dining room with its fine fireplace, coving and central ceiling rose, the 22' drawing room with its impressive Bath stone fireplace and most attractive wood strip floor. Both these rooms have doors directly into the 22' Victorian conservatory, a grand space with manually controlled venting along the whole of one side. Adjacent to the drawing room is the 20' kitchen, whilst accessed from the rear porch are the the additional laundry/utility rooms offering immense scope, together with a ground floor cloaks & w.c. To the opposite end of the house is a small study, with front porch to one side and cloaks and w.c. to the other.

To the first floor there is a long and wonderfully light landing, off which are three
bedrooms, one with en-suite bathroom and w.c., and adjacent family bathroom and
w.c. To the far end of the landing is a further small room which could be a study.

Adjacent to the house is an attractive annexe with an open plan kitchen living room together with a 20' conservatory, whilst to the first floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom. Externally there is a private courtyard garden making this ideal either for multi generational living or as a source of income.

To the front of the property are two garages and a block paved parking area for several vehicles. Adjacent to the house are two further buildings, including a wine store, together with a most useful open fronted store room. To the rear of the house is an extensive garden with both a paved sun terrace accessed directly from the house and conservatory, a level lawned garden, an attractive Box knot garden and a most attractive 20' pavilion with a veranda to the front. To the far extent of the garden is a wildlife garden together with a vineyard of Phoenix grapes, adding to the appeal of this fascinating property.

For those looking for a substantial period property with extensive gardens and a separate annexe, we strongly recommend an early viewing.
