House For Sale £1,350,000
Langton Lodge is a magnificent detached property set within a 0.6 acre plot and occupying a highly desirable position within the sought after village of Scotton. With far reaching views over open countryside and an extensive south facing garden, this fabulous home has a wealth of character and huge potential having in excess of 3,000 square feet of accommodation.
The property is fronted by wrought iron gates opening to the sweeping gravel driveway flanked by an expanse of south facing lawn with established planting to the borders. The driveway extends to a parking area in front of the large 11 metre by 5 metre detached garage. This splendid property has been lovingly maintained for almost 40 years by the current owners and exudes character throughout, retaining some fabulous period features including impressively high ceilings. The house opens via an entrance porch and double doors to the central hallway. This extends through to the rear hallway where there is access to a guest w/c and ½ cellar storage space. To the front elevation of the house the bay fronted dining room is arranged around a central fireplace that houses a log burning stove. The dining room leads into the spacious kitchen which is large enough to accommodate a breakfast table and flows through double doors to the fully glazed garden room. This in turn opens out to south facing sun terrace which is defined by a stone flagged patio area ideal for outdoor entertaining and surrounded by attractively planted beds and shaped shrubs. Adjoining the kitchen there is a separate practical utility room which also opens through to the rear entrance hall and rear garden. To the other side of the front entrance hall there is bay fronted sitting room with feature fireplace that leads through to a dual aspect home office with sliding doors opening out to the rear garden which presents a flagged patio area and lawn with stone walled boundary and far reaching views over open countryside beyond. From the home office there is internal access to the pool house which could be reinstated if required or alternatively offers scope to redesign as additional accommodation.
To the first floor the central landing branches to a house bathroom and three well proportioned double bedrooms to one end, and a principal bedroom suite to the other end incorporating a dual aspect bedroom with feature fireplace leading through to a separate dressing room with build in wardrobes, and large en-suite bathroom boasting a bathtub and shower enclosure.
The fabulous sized plot not only benefits from the large lawn garden to the front, but an additional lawn garden to the side outside the pool house which opens out through French doors to a stone flagged patio. There is a raised decked terrace with timber summer house providing yet another seating area from where the amazing views can be enjoyed.
