House For Sale £1,250,000
Manor Lodge we understand was built circa 1850 and is believed to be one of two gate houses to the Manor House which originally stood within the grounds of what is now Weybridge Park. More recently it has been both comprehensively refurbished and imaginatively extended to create a beautiful home which combines the best of the lodges’ original and period features alongside modern design and high quality contemporary fittings to create a unique, beautiful, flexible, and comfortable family home.
Ideally located, it sits pretty much equidistant between Weybridge town centre with its excellent cross section of local shops, two supermarkets, various cafes and numerous eateries, and Weybridge station with its excellent rail services in and out of London. Weybridge cricket green is virtually within sight just a couple of minutes’ walk away as are the great recreational facilities at Churchfields Park which include tennis courts, a basketball court, children’s fresh water paddling pool and play area, picnic areas and the lovely Churchfield allotments. Importantly for those with school age children, the house also falls within catchment of some of the area’s most popular schools.
Particularly attractive architecturally with a combination of red brick and tile hung elevations with stone mullion window, the lodge enjoys a good degree of privacy set behind two electrically operated gates which open to give access to the generous block paved driveway which leads to both the house and adjoining garage studio and provides plenty of private parking. A canopied portico gives access to an ecclesiastical arched front door which opens into the centrally positioned reception hall.
Improved and enlarged by our clients, the property now provides flexible and adaptable accommodation which is beautifully appointed, spacious, and well-planned with a modern contemporary finish. The heart of the house is a fabulous open plan kitchen living/dining room with a bespoke fitted kitchen by Roundhouse Design which provides plenty of cupboards, drawers, expansive wood block work surfaces and integrated appliances. A large stainless steel surfaced island unit incorporates an integrated five burner gas hob complemented by split level double ovens and integrated double drawer dishwasher, integrated sink unit again within a stainless steel work surface, and space for a double size fridge freezer. A walk-through pantry gives access to a separate utility room. Both are lit by skylight windows.
The kitchen is seamlessly open plan through to both the family room and dining room which span across the width of the rear of house and has two sets of bifold doors which open onto the garden and paved terrace. To the front of the house is the entrance hall where you will find a lovely square bay windowed double aspect living room with a working stone mantled fireplace which is complemented by a snug come study. There is also a guest cloakroom and of course stairs which leads to the first floor where you will find an attractive landing providing built in storage and giving access to the four bedrooms. The master is served by a superbly appointed en-suite. Bedrooms two and three can both accommodate double size beds whilst the fourth is currently configured as a large dressing room with walk in wardrobe which could easily be reversed back to a double size bedroom. Finally, the family bathroom is again very attractively appointed.
In addition to the accommodation within the main house is a two storey garage building which adjoins the lodge. A good size garage occupies the ground floor whilst over the first floor a large studio office is accessed via its own staircase to the rear. This makes a great home working space or alternatively could provide yet more bedroom accommodation.
The rear garden enjoys a westerly aspect and was professionally designed by Clifton’s Nurseries as a wildlife garden. It is very generously planted with well stocked borders a good size lawn and contemporary boundary fencing. There is gated access through to the front drive.
A truly exceptional and characterful property, immaculately finished and appointed to an impressively high standard. An absolute must view!
