Accommodation - This stunning, elegant duplex townhouse combines modern luxury living on a specification usually found in city apartments, with the peace and calm of rural life in this highly desirable Welland Valley village. Formerly a country hotel, The Hunting Lodge Mews complex (which was converted c2014/15), retains a sense of luxury as you come up the steps, under the grand portico and through into the secure communal entrance and reception hall.

Integrated Smeg appliances include double oven and gas hob, with extractor hood over. There is also an integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher. A breakfast bar and peninsula island allow for plenty of prep space or casual dining. Through here you will find a handy utility/larder with plumbing for washing machine and space for a dryer and guest cloakroom.

Upstairs the sense of space continues. A jaw-droppingly spacious principal bedroom features two Juliet balconies that take in the leafy views of the garden, ample storage to the fitted wardrobes and its own ensuite bathroom with luxury, contemporary suite comprising P-shaped bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC. The guest bedroom features its own contemporary ensuite shower room akin to that found in a boutique hotel, and views of the garden.

Outside - Lovingly landscaped the private rear garden is ideal for lock-up and leave/bolthole seekers that still want a peaceful, private al fresco setting for their pied-a-terre. With a timber decked dining/seating terrace, and tiered shrubbery borders set against a mature, leafy backdrop, this is, quite simply, an oasis of tranquillity.
