A distinguished Grade II listed Lutyens designed country home set in secluded landscaped grounds, combining historic elegance with flexible family living.
East Lodge is a distinguished Grade II listed residence designed by esteemed architect Robert Lutyens, representing a rare opportunity to acquire a home of considerable architectural significance. Originally commissioned in the 1930s for famed ‘Bentley Boy’ Woolf Barnato, the property combines exceptional provenance with the warmth and practicality of a long-held family home.
Occupying mature and beautifully secluded grounds, the house provides elegant and highly versatile accommodation extending across two floors. The principal reception rooms are particularly impressive, offering excellent entertaining space with parquet flooring, open fireplaces and attractive views across the gardens.
A conservatory-style garden room introduces further flexibility and natural light, while the kitchen combines contemporary practicality with understated country-house styling and connects naturally with the surrounding living spaces.
The accommodation includes six bedrooms in total, including a substantial-master bedroom with en suite bathroom. A particularly striking first-floor family room enjoys triple-aspect light, exposed wooden floorboards and elevated views across the grounds.
The gardens extend to both sides of the property and feature expansive lawns, mature planting, multiple terraces and a swimming pool with adjoining south-facing sun terrace, creating an exceptionally peaceful and private setting. A pond and long private driveway further enhance the sense of seclusion and arrival.
