The Property

This well-proportioned and thoughtfully updated family home enjoys a peaceful cul-de-sac setting within the highly regarded village of Woodnewton.

The property has been carefully maintained and enhanced over the years, with improvements that support comfortable modern living and excellent energy efficiency. Benefits include double glazing, an air source heat pump, and solar panels supplementing the electricity supply. Of particular note is the beautifully converted barn within the garden, offering exceptional flexibility of use.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors. The welcoming entrance hall provides access to a convenient cloakroom. The living room is an excellent size, featuring an inset wood-burning stove that creates a cosy focal point. Bi-fold doors open seamlessly into the conservatory, forming an impressive entertaining space that in turn opens onto the rear patio.

The dining room is accessible from both the hall and the living room and enjoys views over the garden, with an under stairs cupboard providing useful storage. Beyond lies the snug, ideal as a playroom, study, or quiet retreat.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units, worksurfaces and inset sink. Built-in appliances include electric double ovens, hob, extractor, fridge, and microwave. There is ample space for a family dining table. Subject to requirements, a simple knock-through to the dining room could create a superb open-plan kitchen/dining space. A separate utility room provides further storage and appliance space, with a door leading directly to the garden.

Upstairs are four generous double bedrooms. Three bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, while the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing area and an ensuite shower room/WC.

Converted Barn

The attractive stone barn within the garden is a particularly valuable feature, offering a wide range of potential uses, including games room, cinema room, home office, studio, or self-contained annex (subject to any necessary consents). Currently arranged for business use, the barn comprises a hall, cloakroom/WC, storeroom, and a large office space. Full-height glazing and a door in the south-facing gable flood the interior with natural light. The barn can be accessed via a pathway from the front of the house.

Outside

Lodge Barn benefits from ample parking on the gravel driveway, which leads to the double garage with power and lighting connected. Side access runs to both sides of the house, leading to the south-facing rear garden. To the rear, a patio provides an excellent terrace overlooking the lawn, which extends to mature laurel hedging at the boundary. A copper beech hedge creates additional privacy around the terrace area beside the barn, forming a particularly secluded garden space should the barn be utilised as an annex.
