About this property

DESCRIPTION The Lodge comprises a detached house, constructed of red brick and tile-hung elevations beneath a pitched pin-tile roof. Believed to date from the early 20th century, the property exhibits many traditional architectural features of which include, multi-pane casement windows, decorative brickwork, and a symmetrical façade centred around a panelled front door beneath a small porch.

Internally, the accommodation is well-proportioned over two floors, offering considerable potential for modernisation and improvement throughout, which any buyer will likely factor into their deliberations. The Lodge briefly comprises entrance hall, dining room, sitting room, kitchen, garden room and a study/bedroom four with en-suite shower room on the ground floor.

On the first floor there are three double bedrooms and the family bathroom positioned off the landing area. The principal bedroom enjoys fitted wardrobes and there is a useful store off the bathroom.

The Lodge enjoys a number of outstanding features, in particular, the views over the surrounding gardens from the principal rooms and of course, the position of the property and the privacy it enjoys.

To the outside, The Lodge is approached from a quiet country lane through a white timber gate, leading to a front garden enclosed by low hedging and traditional cast iron estate fencing. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and specimen trees, providing seasonal colour and privacy. A brick boundary wall with arched gate leads to a further garden area, bordered by established woodland and informal paths.

There is a large double garage accessed from the private drive off Beeston Lane and located towards the boundary measuring 23'9 x 17'10 together with a separate detached workshop. in addition, two useful stores adjoin the house.

The whole is an exciting opportunity having never been on the open market.

The nearby village of Coltishall (approximately 2 miles) provides a good range of local amenities including shops, public houses, and a primary school, whilst the cathedral city of Norwich (approximately 9 miles) offers an extensive range of cultural, educational, and recreational facilities together with a mainline rail service to London Liverpool Street (from about 1 hour 50 minutes).

The new drainage field will be largely in the curtilage but will protrude beyond the northern boundary into land owned by Stretton Beeston Ltd.
