Description
In a prime residential setting, a Grade II listed, detached home with annexe and outdoor pool
With an intriguing façade incorporating conjoining curved, white painted elevations and an architectural stone entrance portal, West Lodge is a characterful home of individual design, with a living environment that affords a seamless connection to delightful, secluded gardens. The property originally formed part of the Wentworth Court Estate, designed by Robert Lutyens for Captain Joel Woolf Barnato, a legendary racing driver and former chairman of Bentley Motors.
On entering, the reception hall offers a generous welcome and gives access into a bright, double-aspect sitting room with two separate glazed doors opening onto the outside terracing. This spacious setting features an alcove with bespoke display shelving and cupboard storage, with ample space to provide a relaxed sitting area and a study setting. Offering the ideal spot to host family and friends, the dining room has an open aperture to the adjacent kitchen, with a useful utility space tucked-away behind closed doors. Fitted with neutral-toned, wall and base level cabinetry and integrated appliances, the kitchen features terracotta-tiled flooring and a breakfast bar setting for informal dining.
Step-level changes on the first floor create interest, with landings giving access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. All of the rooms have fitted wardrobe storage, including the principal bedroom which also has a dressing area, an en suite shower room and French doors to a Juliette balcony with views over the garden. Supplemental accommodation is offered in a charming annexe, which comprises a sitting room/bedroom and a shower room with the potential for further enhancement. Outside
The gardens are a flourishing outdoor haven with an attractive collection of shrubs, specimen trees and perennial plants which showcase colour, architectural form and floral features. An area of lawn is framed by richly planted borders, with gravel and pebble garden features offering planting pockets. Paved terraces offer opportunities for al fresco dining and relaxation, with a paved surround to the pool providing an additional spot in which to lounge. An arched aperture in a high-level partition wall has a wrought-iron gate to access a courtyard garden beside the annexe. The property has two separate garages, one integral to the house and the other adjoined by the pool room.
Services: Mains electricity, gas, water and drainage. Gas fired central heating.
