Welcome to White Gates Lodge, a stone’s throw from the sea (just under a mile) views to die for, and a perfect entertaining home. With a self-contained annexe, outdoor heated swimming pool, and a contemporary open style kitchen which opens out to wide sunny patio, this is a real rural retreat.
The front door leads from the driveway into the ENTRANCE HALL, a light and generous greeting space with modern tiled flooring. Without doubt, the centrepiece of this unique property, is the open plan reception area. This light, well planned room is a truly social space.
The KITCHEN area is well equipped and finished in a contemporary, neutral fashion. The vaulted ceiling gives a sense of airiness, and your eyes are drawn to the Velux™ windows above. Huge amounts of natural light is allowed to flood the room. For the budding chefs, there is a practical amount of workspace and lots of appliances, including: a range cooker, a gas hob with extractor fan over, dishwasher, drinks fridge, wine cooler and space and plumbing for doubling American style fridge/ freezer. And for the non-chefs, there is a breakfast bar, where you can put some perch stools, to sit and enjoy the ambiance.
A door from the kitchen leads to an internal hallway and in turn another door leads to the UTILITY ROOM, a useful space well equipped with worktop, wall mounted boiler and space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer and a window to the side. A further door from the hall leads into a large storage cupboard.
The SITTING/DINING ROOM is a wonderful example of open plan living. The cylindrical multi-fuel burner sits between the sitting and dining area, linking these spaces together. Large windows overlook the garden, pool and the hillside paddocks, that belong to White Gates Lodge.
The STUDY is generous enough for desks and worktop space - the perfect home office. Alternatively, you could make this another double bedroom, should you need. French windows lead out onto the rear patio and a large window overlooks the driveway.
The ground floor has a spacious FAMILY BATHROOM, fully tiled with travertine, comprising shower cubicle, corner bath, W.C., and hand wash basin.
Two double bedrooms are available on the ground floor, both of which are good sizes. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a large double room with extensive fitted wardrobes. Sliding mirrored doors lead into a space with the services and window available for an en-suite facility.
A staircase from the entrance hall leads to the first-floor landing where there are two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from contemporary ensuite bathrooms.
On this floor there is also a sizable walk-in eaves storage space with Velux™ window.
ANNEXE
This beautifully finished annexe is currently used as a successful holiday let but could equally provide secondary accommodation for the multigenerational family. The open KITCHEN/DINING/ SITTING ROOM is a fantastic open-plan space complete with a contemporary style and practical finishings. The downstairs SHOWER ROOM comprises a shower cubicle, W.C., and hand-wash basin. Upstairs, there are TWO BEDROOMS, both have enough space for additional furniture, with a cloakroom between the two.
Outside
White Gates Lodge is accessed by electric double gates leading to a sweeping gravel DRIVEWAY which has parking for multiple vehicles. There is a large lawned area with mature trees and enclosed by hedging creating a private and calming place. Pathways lead to the rear gardens, the pool and the paddocks. The gardens have lawns and are bordered by mature shrubs and trees.
The heated SWIMMING POOL is situated on a very well-maintained patio area with a timber summer house as well as a brick-built plant room, outside W.C., and changing space.
Stock fencing and a timber gate divide the domestic gardens from the PADDOCKS, which are separated into two.
There is a large DOUBLE GARAGE with a pitched roof and light and power connected.
Location
The property is situated on the edge of the village of Osmington which is widely considered to be one of the most popular villages in the area. Close to the village centre, which is near to the sea (Jurassic coast) and countryside walks. With a strong sense of community, there is a vibrant village hall with a full calendar of activities throughout the year. The village is also within easy reach of the county town of Dorchester and the seaside resort of Weymouth.
