Description

Set in stunning, wraparound gardens along a tree-lined private road, discover the restful haven of East Lodge. With a gate from the garden leading you to the woods and lake of the Bostock Hall Estate and the gentle sight of horses and cattle grazing in the field opposite, East Lodge offers tranquillity at every turn.

Arriving home
Marked by an old gatehouse to the estate, follow the leafy lane leading to East Lodge. Mature trees surrounding the home draw in an abundance of birdlife and impart natural beauty all year round.

As the electric gates close behind you, find yourself on a broad driveway offering plentiful parking. To the left, a double garage with powered doors provides storage and a fast charge EVC point. A large room above the garage offers interesting potential. Currently used as a gym, plumbing and power are in place simplifying conversion to a games room, self-contained flat or sizeable home office.

Recently fitted, a camera providing footage of the front gate can be viewed on your mobile phone.

Step inside
Crossing the threshold, the high quality and contemporary tone of the home is set in the bright and spacious entrance hallway.

High above, past the impressive staircase and elegant galleried landing, light issues from a Velux window in the double height ceiling. Luxurious, glossy tiles underfoot and soft grey décor create a calm and welcoming return home. Centrally placed, doors lead off the hallway to the rest of the well-connected ground floor.

Tuck away coats and boots in a generous cupboard beneath the stairs before moving left to find the office, replete with fitted desk and storage, at the front of the home. Leafy views across the lane deliver a welcome distraction.

Refresh in a well-placed WC with wash basin, adjacent.

Bright and airy
Continuing on the opulent tiled floor, notice the warmth of underfloor heating as you enter the kitchen and dining area.

Hosting family meals and parties with friends will be a pleasure from this room, which has most certainly been designed with entertaining at its heart.

Fitted just over three years ago, the modern Magnet kitchen with high gloss, handleless finish and quartz worktops, provides a dazzling number of integrated appliances. There’s no need to worry about space for food and drinks with two fridge-freezers, two double ovens and two wine fridges available. An induction hob, hot water tap and waste disposal add convenience while the thoughtful touch of a plate warming drawer beneath the microwave completes the room.

Beyond the kitchen, an exposed beam spans the dining area while the vaulted ceiling bestows an airy feel. Dine here surrounded by windows framing panoramic views of the garden or open up the French doors and step out to the terrace for a sunny and secluded place to eat.

Owners’ quote – “Friends and family love the garden. They say all the trees and shrubs make it feel like a park. They love to sit and listen to the birds.”

To the left of the kitchen, find a neat utility with a stable door to the rear of the home. A washer and dryer fit comfortably here. A sink and storage are handy too.

Connected living
Moving through, the flow of this home begins to reveal itself as, staying connected to the kitchen, you step through into the warmly carpeted double aspect family room. French doors open this room up to the terrace and garden beyond. An inset glazed gas fire offers a warm focal point when the seasons change.

From here, one door returns you into the entrance hallway whilst another leads you to discover the sitting room; a large, calming space offering a relaxing retreat at the end of the day. Windows to two sides draw in light as do half-glazed French doors leading straight into the garden. Above the open gas fireplace, find a generous space for a wall mounted TV.

Owners’ quote – “The sitting room is such a relaxing space. It’s big and spacious with lots of room to lounge around.”

Continuing the connection within the home, music and TV audio can be streamed through speakers in the ceilings of the family room, sitting room and dining area to create a calming mood or really get the party started!

Refresh and relax
An elegant cascading feature light catches your eye as you ascend the carpeted staircase from the entrance hallway to the galleried landing.

Moving left, passing a useful storage cupboard, find two light bedrooms with views over the rear garden.

Guests will enjoy the luxurious finish of the refined ensuite to Bedroom 2. Soft grey marbled wall tiles give a high gloss finish while comfort is found in a shower, WC with concealed cistern, heated towel rail and wash basin with vanity.

Verdant views of trees and farmland greet you as you discover the spacious master suite. Prepare for the day at a delightfully placed dressing table that sits beneath a window. Walk-in wardrobes keep clothes and shoes concealed, maintaining a feeling of calm. The restful ensuite beckons you to wash away the cares of the day in the large shower with tasteful, frameless enclosure. A wash basin with vanity, towel rail and WC with enclosed cistern finish this stylish space.

Soak and sleep
Crossing the galleried landing, glimpse down to the entrance hall below before arriving in the large family bathroom.

The warm, champagne tones of this room invite you in and encourage you to relax. Pour in some bubbles and recline by candlelight in the sumptuous oval bath or revive in the roomy rainfall shower with open enclosure. Furnished with a vanity unit wash basin, WC and towel rail this room offers a peaceful place to wind down.

A further, bright double bedroom is found alongside the bathroom with garden views and useful, fitted wardrobes.

Wrapped in nature
Seasonal, year-round colour bursts from the mature trees and shrubs filling the wraparound gardens of East Lodge. Secluded and south west facing, the rear garden is bathed in sunshine and birdsong from sunrise until early evening. A broad terrace hugs the back of the home offering a lovely space to sit with morning coffee or room for alfresco dining, barbeques and summer parties. The large lawn leaves plenty of space for children to play. As the sun sets, switch on the outdoor lighting and make the most of balmy, summer evenings with friends or wander to the gazebo to unwind in the hot tub.

Children will delight in the “Secret Wood” just beyond the garden. Filled with trees and a haven for wildlife, this wild space is a wonderful place to have adventures. Through a rear gate in the garden, follow a lane to the lake and woods of Bostock Hall Estate to feed the ducks and explore.

Owners’ quote – “It’s lovely to have the lake so close by. We often have ducks visiting the garden.”
