The Lodge is an Individual detached house built in 1998, which is traditionally styled with elevations faced in stone and render with traditional mullioned windows and a slate roof. It is one of three individual properties which enjoy a delightful location within the grounds of a Victorian mansion house, divided into luxury apartments. The three properties have the exclusive use of 7.5 acres of parkland and grounds surrounding the mansion and have the exclusive use of an estate tennis court. In addition to this, The Lodge has good size private gardens which back onto fields on two sides providing a delightful country location.

The accommodation offered by the property is highly adaptable and there is clear potential to create an annexe if required. Presently the property is approached through a spacious entrance hall with three separate reception rooms with the living and dining area linked (but can easily be separated if required) together with a refitted 19ft kitchen with luxury high gloss white units and a range of built in appliances. In addition on the ground floor there is a cloakroom with wc, utility room and a games room and is equally suitable as a guest suite as it features two large built in cupboards and an en suite shower room. A spiral staircase leads down to an area presently used as a gym which has access to the double garage. The first floor has a beautiful landing area with four double bedroom, two of which have en suite facilities, the others served by a family bathroom.

The Lons is superably situated approximately 7 miles equidistant to the cities of Bath and Bristol with their renowned range of amenities and attractions. The Town of Keynsham which has a railway station, and a Waitrose Food Store is 2.5 miles away and there is easy access to the Bristol Ring Road and Gallagher Retail Park at Longwell Green.

It comprises a wide paved terrace with steps leading to an extensively lawned garden with three main tiers and a number of mature trees. The garden adjoins open countryside to two sides. In total the private plot extends to approximately half an acre.

Beyond the private garden the property enjoys a shared interest in the 7.5 acres of parkland surrounding the mansion house which includes the use of an estate tennis court. This provides a truly delightful setting and is maintained by a management company of which the three house owners are members, with one of the householders organising maintenance through an external contractor.

Tenure - Freehold. The shared grounds are on a separate title vested in the management company for which there is a service charge of approximately £X per annum (TBC).
