An immaculate and fully restored property forming part of a historic development, beautifully positioned next to Ladybower reservoir within the Peak District National Park. Lodge House was originally the head offices for the water company and pumping station of the Ladybower Dam. The property features spacious well proportioned accommodation over two floors and has some particularly fine panelling and carved doors which came from Derwent Hall prior to its submersion in the Derwent Dam. Two allocated parking spaces are included in the sale and the property benefits from use of a communal gym, bicycle store and further lockable storage.

A deceptively spacious residence adjacent to, but very much separate from, this fine conversion of a former pumping station. Lodge House has all the benefits of the development in terms of security, parking for two vehicles, gardens and leisure facilities but has its own private entrances. Wide stone steps lead up to an impressive pair of tall wooden front doors leading into an entrance lobby with tall glazed doors into the dining hall, off which are the kitchen, drawing room, library area, study, laundry room, cloakroom and staircase. The entrance lobby, dining hall and library areas all have a polished granite floor. The drawing room is entered through a carved solid oak door and has a wonderful high ceiling and working fireplace with an attractive marble surround, slips and hearth. In the inner hall another beautifully carved solid oak door opens into the cloakroom. The kitchen is well fitted with a range of wall and base units and has an ample dining area. The dining hall is wood panelled in oak and gives access to a most impressive wide sweeping staircase to the first floor which also features fine panelling.

To the first floor is a large master bedroom featuring a working fireplace with a substantial marble surround. A doorway opens into an extremely well fitted bathroom with roll top bath, separate shower cubicle, wc and wash hand basin. There are two further bedrooms and a guest bathroom.

Lodge House features some wonderful solid oak panelling and carved doors which were removed from the nearby Derwent Hall, originally built by the Balguy family in 1672 and who remained there until it eventually passed to the Duke of Norfolk, who substantially altered it. Just prior to the flooding of the valley to create the Derwent Dam large amounts of oak panelling were removed from the hall and were used for the lining of the walls of the entrance and board room at the Yorkshire Bridge Filter House, now known as Lodge House.

Bicycle store and storage cage; communal gymnasium; two car parking spaces and further visitor parking; electric gates to the development; communal grounds; security system with heat detectors; sealed unit double glazing throughout.
