Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Leasehold
open plan living, allocated parking for two cars and beautifully maintained communal gardens.
Herne Lodge sits in a prime position within the town and is only a short walk from the marketplace and schools.
Herne Lodge was originally built facing away from the town, overlooking open country and the river Nene. It was a Victorian hunting lodge or weekend retreat, built in limestone to what is known as ‘double-pile construction’ – two rooms across, two rooms deep, and two stories high – in the Gothic Revival style. The building was converted into four apartments but retains many of its original features, now restored to their former splendour and upgraded to meet modern standards for energy efficiency.
With the mullioned windows, dressed stone, castellated porch, high ceilings, deep skirting boards and panelled window reveals, the property really does offer a wealth of character.
The entrance hall is accessed through a fine doorway with stairs leading to the first floor, on entering the property you will find access to an open plan and spacious living area flooded with natural light pouring in from two aspects. Within the living area there is a well appointed and high specification kitchen with a range of base and eye level units, complemented with granite work surfaces and benefitting from integrated appliances to include NEFF induction hob, oven, slim line dishwasher and washer/dryer.
Karndean flooring and wrought iron radiators add to the stylish feel throughout.
The principal bedroom which formerly was bedrooms one and two, has been created to make a very generous and well-proportioned room, again being flooded with natural light, and taking full of advantage of the high ceilings. There is also a range of built-in double wardrobes with dressing table inset.
The family bathroom is magnificent in proportions and presentation offering a full suite of Villeroy Bosch sanitary ware, including both bath and double shower enclosure, complemented with mosaic tiled flooring and oversized heated towel rail.
Further additions to the property include a digital thermostat, secure video telephone entry system and separate secure basement storage area. There is also a separate secure refuse building with space for cycle storage
Outside you will find a neatly cobbled driveway which leads round to two parking spaces and a further two visitor spaces for guests. The shared gardens are delightfully landscaped with impressive lawns, generous patios and enclosed by beautiful mature trees.
Please note our client would be willing to sell the property with most of the furniture and soft furnishings included, which would make this a perfect lock up and leave, weekend retreat.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
