“Forge House” is a remarkable and historic home, steeped in character and charm, dating back to the 1700s. Proudly positioned in the heart of the picturesque village of Lockington, this iconic property was once a blacksmith’s shop and home. Lovingly restored and tastefully linked by its current owners, it has been transformed into a truly enchanting and unique family home.
With only two owners during the past century, Forge House exudes a warm sense of atmosphere from the moment you step into the entrance hall. The accommodation is both spacious and flexible, brimming with period features you would expect in a home of this era - from the striking and traditional beehive design and characterful inglenook fireplace to exposed king post truss, beamed ceilings, and traditional stone flooring.
The exterior is equally captivating. A stunning, walled garden offers a peaceful and private retreat—ideal for entertaining or simply unwinding. For those green-fingered enthusiasts, there is a further garden area, perfect for cultivating fruit and vegetables.
Animal lovers will also feel right at home too, with a range of traditional outbuildings including stables, a tack room, hay/straw store, dog run with direct access to the tack room, a coal bunker and workshop, which an ideal space for hobbies or for the more serious trades person. A double garage and ample off-road parking complete the offering.
Words and photographs can only go so far in capturing the true essence and lifestyle Forge House offers. *An accompanied viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that this exceptional home has to offer.*
