House For Sale £365,000
A truly unique and complete recent renovation Grade II listed former lodge on the edge of town.
The property, built in 1837, was the former lodge to Belmont House, owned by Samuel Gundry junior, one of the twine manufacturing dynasty. The property sits on the edge of the town within walking distance of both the town's amenities and the nearby beach at West Bay. The lodge has recently undergone a complete transformation to bring the property firmly into the 21st century, whilst care has been taken to maintain and enhance the character features throughout.
On the ground floor the original front door has been reinstated giving way to a particularly light and airy entrance hall with solid reclaimed pine flooring and distinctive clover leaf shaped windows. To the right of the hall is a dual aspect bedroom which has been neutrally decorated. This in turn accesses a small storage area leading through into a spacious en-suite bathroom. The bathroom is fitted with a white suite with a shower over bath. From the central hallway is the second bedroom which also benefits from an en-suite shower room and an airing cupboard under the stairs which houses the water tank. To the left hand side of the property are the main living areas which have also been fitted with solid pine flooring. The dining room sits adjacent to the kitchen and centres around a working open fireplace. Along with the living room it boasts particularly high ceilings. The kitchen has been fitted with an extensive range of floor and wall mounted units. Integrated appliances include an oven with hob and Elica extractor fan over, a washing machine, dishwasher and a fridge freezer. The living room sits at the end of the property and centres around a pretty working Victorian fireplace. The room has windows on three of the walls including the southern side.
Access to the first floor is via a staircase leading off the hallway which has been enclosed with a contemporary glass balustrade. The third bedroom also has an en-suite shower room which is fitted with a white suite which comprises of a shower cubicle, WC and wash basin.
