<b>Description</b>
The Hunting Lodge to Cottingham Hall was once part of the site. Converted from what was formerly a hotel, The Rutland now forms one of a collection of high-end apartments and houses in this private, yet sociable, exclusive, gated development.
Located right in the centre of the popular village of Cottingham, it is ideal for reaching amenities with ease.
The property is of mellow brick under a tiled roof. It has its own private garden and parking area for two cars directly to the front and also shares a communal garden with the residents.
The property is deceptively spacious and offers great flexibility in its accommodation. It has been meticulously looked after and all internal fittings and fixtures are of a high specification.
Accommodation
The property is approached through electric gates over a shared tarmacked driveway, leading to designated parking spots. Central to the car park is a beautiful mature horse chestnut tree. Wrapping around all sides are the private communal gardens. There is a certain inviting, whimsical feel about the approach.
Hunting Lodge Mews is impressive in its grandeur and stands proud at the end of the driveway. The Rutland occupies the left-hand side of the building and is aesthetically pleasing with its 2 bay window French doors and private well-tended garden. Its allocated parking spaces are directly to the front of the property and there is step free access into its private gardens for those requiring a little assistance.
Access to the main front door is via communal stairs up to a large storm porch. A wide corridor leads to several of the mews. The Rutland being the first on the left. Once inside The Rutland, there is an internal porch with a large storage cupboard ideal for shoes, boots and coats. The main entrance hall is surprisingly spacious, lending itself to be used as a further reception room, home office or library. The hallway connects all areas of the home, making internal access very effortless.
To the left is the open plan family kitchen, with its modern, solid wood, grey units with granite effect worktop, island and breakfast bar. It is of a high specification and includes integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher and electric Belling range cooker.
The kitchen is open plan into the extremely spacious dining and living area. There is space for a formal dining table and several sofas/occasional chairs, dressers and cupboards, with a door leading out to the private well-tended garden. There is a separate well-appointed utility room with space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and additional fridge freezer. A rear boot porch leads in from the garden enabling muddy boots and tools to be stored away from the rest of the home.
The Master Bedroom is well-equipped with fitted wardrobes and dressing table and has its own ensuite bathroom with shower over and WC.
There are two further pleasant double bedrooms, one of which is currently used as an additional reception room and a good sized family shower room/WC.

There are also some beautiful well maintained communal gardens for use and in the past, pre-covid-19, many a garden party has been held by the residents.
