Description
A charming home in the heart of the historic Cotswold market town of Burford with a separate cottage
This Grade II listed charming property exudes a classic and cosy ambience, blending historic architecture with modern, inviting interior spaces and a beautiful outdoor setting.
The Great Lodge dates from the 17th century and was converted in the 19th century to create a wonderful home. It was the original carriage house and stables for The Great House, and the separate cottage was built as a garage with a flat above when the original conversion was done in the 1960s by Burford architect F. Russell-Cox.
Internally, the property features spacious reception rooms that are designed with a strong sense of proportion. The generous heights of the ceilings create an airy and inviting atmosphere, making the spaces feel even larger and more open. At one end of this central living area, there is a well-equipped kitchen that flows seamlessly into the dining room and the family room. This layout is not only functional but also enhances the overall beauty of the home. The dining room and family room stand out as key features, serving as impressive focal points that are essential to the property’s charm and appeal.
Externally the property features a charming flat lawn, which is well-maintained and provides a welcoming space for outdoor activities or relaxation.
Alongside this lawn, there is a designated parking area that offers convenience for residents and guests, ensuring easy access to the property. In addition to this flat area, the property features a raised lawn adorned with a variety of fruit trees, adding a touch of nature and potential for homegrown produce. At the back of the property, there is a large, sloping grassy area that extends up to Swan Lane.
This expansive space not only enhances the visual appeal of the landscape but also provides opportunities for outdoor enjoyment, such as gardening, playing, or simply appreciating the beauty of the surroundings.
Overall, The Great Lodge perfectly captures the essence of a countryside retreat with its blend of cosy, well-appointed interiors and beautifully landscaped gardens, providing an idyllic setting for relaxed living and entertaining.
