Description
White Lodge is a charming house believed to date from approximately 1900 and was originally a lodge house to what is now Donnington Grove golf club, and as such occupies a lovely setting on the edge of the village overlooking the grounds of the course. The accommodation is well laid out over two floors and would now benefit from some modernisation.
There is planning permission in place for a two storey extension to create a four bedroom, four bathroom house, the floorplan for which is attached to this brochure. Internal alteration could allow for a fifth bedroom. The details can be found on West Berkshire planning portal reference 20/01193/HOUSE.
There is an additional and separate planning application, which is pending, to demolish and replace the existing property and create a five bedroom, three bathroom house, the details of which are available on West Berkshire planning portal reference 22/01346/FULD.
Outside, White Lodge has a beautiful approach through the golf course and across a bridge over the River Lambourn to a drive leading to parking to the side of the house. The gardens have some fine trees and although currently uncultivated, there is huge potential to create a great outdoor space. To the south of the house there is a lovely area of water meadows with a path leading down to a charming decked area on the banks of the River Lambourn.
Location
White Lodge is situated on the edge of Donnington, a pretty and historic village on the River Lambourn, famous for its castle and lying on the outskirts of Newbury. Newbury itself offers a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities and has a mainline station to London Paddington. Newbury Racecourse offers an exciting calendar of events and there are a number of excellent local golf courses to enjoy. The position of the property gives excellent access to walks either to the town, castle or over the golf course and to Snelsmore Common with its wide network of footpaths. Connections to London and beyond are excellent by road with nearby access to both the M4 and A34, and by rail from Newbury.
