Description:
A truly unique Grade II listed detached Regency property built in 1820 as part of the Chorleywood House Estate. The house enjoys direct frontage and access across the river Chess. The plot measures approximately 0.7 of an acre in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The private driveway is approximately 0.38 miles long.
The house was originally built as the fishing lodge for the Chorleywood House Estate. The beautiful river room is a particular feature of note as is the veranda overlooking the river Chess. Although the house would benefit from some modernisation, it is being sold with the benefit of planning consent ( Application 21/0308/4 lbc ) to create a thoughtfully designed and sympathetic extension. Over the years the property has featured in several TV productions including Lewis, Midsomer Murders, Jonathan Creek and others.
The entrance door leads to a split - level double reception room with feature fireplace, herringbone hardwood flooring, steps up to the circular river room, with domed ceiling, marble fireplace, ornate windows and door to the veranda.
The kitchen has a good range of wall and base units, breakfast bar and walk in larder. There is a good size double bedroom on the ground floor with an en suite bathroom. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, one of which has an adjoining eaves room, with scope to create an en-suite .
Outside:
Another feature worthy of special note. The level plot extends to approximately 0.7 of an acre, mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs. The house is accessed via a wooden bridge over the River Chess. The property also benefits from extensive frontage to the river.
N.B To any interested parties. The property is not connected to a mains gas supply. Lpg is used for the central heating, hot water and cooking. There is mains electric, a septic tank and a private water supply.
