Description:
Wellington Lodge is a lovely four bedroom detached property thought to have been built in 1850 which has been owned by the same family for almost 20 years. The house is well positioned in the centre of the plot with a garage and parking to the side. Both the front and rear gardens are surrounded by mature hedging and fencing. The rear garden backs onto grazing land.

On entering the property there is a hallway with stairs to the first floor, a double aspect sitting room with French doors and an open fireplace, a second sitting room with a log burner, a study and a spacious kitchen/breakfast room. The ground floor is completed with a cloakroom and utility. Upstairs the bedrooms radiate from a central landing with a window to the rear. The double aspect, principal bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside:
A picket gate provides access from the lane to the front of the house. Parking is in front of the garage and a garden door adjacent to the garage allows access through the back garden to the kitchen. Outside the kitchen entrance is a west facing terraced area.

The garden includes a timber greenhouse, vegetable garden, shed and log store.

The gardens are a particularly lovely feature of Wellington Lodge. Laid out and planted by the vendor, they include a combination of mature shrubs, roses, perennials and bulbs that provide year round interest. The back garden in particular provides an extraordinary degree of peace and privacy. In all, it measures approximately half an acre.
