About this property

  • The Lodge is a beautiful Edwardian house, built in 1904, and recently restored and extended by the current owners. Situated at the head of the drive to renowned Redlynch Park, the property offers stunning views over the registered historic landscape and parkland grounds.

    The house is entered through a hallway with stairs leading to the first floor and doors opening into both the snug and the sitting room, both of which have parquet flooring. The first reception room includes a log-burning stove and mullion windows overlooking the parkland. The open-plan sitting room also has a log-burning stove and a mullion window that overlooks the garden. This room connects seamlessly to the large modern kitchen extension, which features a tiled floor and underfloor heating. The kitchen is equipped with a considerable island with ample storage. There are two NEFF electric ovens, a dishwasher and a hob with an extractor. Spectacular views of the parkland and surrounding countryside can be enjoyed through large sliding glass doors that open to the garden. The utility room, accessible from the kitchen, has a twin butler's sink, space for a stacked washing machine and tumble dryer, and leads to a shower room with a WC and additional storage.

    Upstairs, the main bedroom features an en-suite bathroom and mullion windows overlooking the garden. The second bedroom is a twin room with mullion windows offering views of the parkland. The third bedroom includes built-in shelving and a small mullion window.

    OUTSIDE
    The garden offers beautiful, elevated views over the parkland and surrounding countryside. It is primarily laid to lawn, with several stone herbaceous borders, enclosed by a stone wall and native hedges. Beyond, the garden extends into a woodland area with a path that follows the boundary. There is a large shed with hard-standing, divided into two sections. One is the workshop and the other serving as a games room with doors opening out to the surrounding grounds. Additionally, there is a greenhouse and to the north of the house, lies a separate area of grounds, with a garage and area of wild garden.

I love this stretch of countryside, full of bridleways, footpaths and offering lovely vistas over open fields. The house is designed to take advantage of this unique location.
