The grounds have been thoughtfully designed to complement the home, offering expansive lawns, mature planting and multiple areas to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the serenity of the surroundings.  The sense of space is exceptional, and the privacy — enhanced by the property’s position along a private lane — is one of its most defining features. Practicality is equally well catered for. The Lodge benefits from an integrated double garage, accessible internally from the house, providing secure parking and excellent storage.  In addition, the property offers a generous amount of gated driveway parking, comfortably accommodating several vehicles and ensuring convenience for both residents and guests.
