House For Sale £2,300,000
Felder Lodge is a fine country house built in 1907 towards the latter part of the Arts & Crafts movement. The movement held craftsmanship at its heart, the quality and distinctive style of which is evident throughout this beautiful home.
Originally laid out to an ‘H’ plan, a further wing is thought to have been added at a slightly later date to accommodate an impressive billiard room with a barrel-vaulted ceiling. Solid oak windows with leaded lights and numerous fireplaces are some of the features found within the house and are classic of the era.
Built for Admiral Sir Reginald Henderson on his retirement to the village of his birth following a distinguished naval career, this connection is acknowledged in the charming anchor motif found on the window fastenings.
The striking double entrance door with stone carved surround opens to a lobby with the reception hall beyond, from where a large window floods the space with light and a solid wooden staircase rises to the first floor.
The well-proportioned reception rooms to one side comprise a drawing room with views across the garden and a sitting room to the front. Beyond is the magnificent billiard room which provides a sensational formal entertaining space with a rich herringbone parquet floor.
The kitchen/breakfast room is a welcoming space fitted with a good range of cabinetry, with plenty of room for a table for day-to-day use. The adjacent double aspect dining room offers a more formal space overlooking the gardens. A front facing study provides a convenient space next to the kitchen/breakfast room.
On the first floor the principal bedroom suite stretches across the west wing of the house and includes a generous dressing room and bathroom which can also be accessed from the landing, allowing flexibility. The second bedroom provides a lovely guest suite with a dressing area and en suite bathroom. There are two further bedrooms on this floor, one of which has an en suite bathroom accessed via a spiral staircase. There is also a family bathroom and a separate shower.
The second floor provides two further bedrooms, a bathroom and a large attic room.
Set off a private no through road, Felder Lodge is approached over a carriage drive with wrought iron electric gates.
The house sits well in its garden, which has a good degree of privacy being well established with mature trees and borders. A fabulous south-facing terrace stretches across the back, providing a wonderful space in which to relax and entertain.
