Impressive village living providing space and privacy
Description
Padbury Lodge is an exceptional house of late Victorian/early Edwardian origins positioned towards the edge of the village.
The house offers generous, well-proportioned rooms particularly the principal reception rooms and bedrooms.
Wealth of period features include elegant and ornate fireplaces, flag stones, cornicing, plaster mouldings, picture rails, bay windows, panelled internal doors, elegant door furniture, wooden flooring and an elegant and impressive staircase.
Recent improvements include installation of Sanitan bathroom fittings.
The accommodation is on three floors and has a gross internal floor area of just over 9,500 sq ft.
Whilst the property has been carefully maintained and improved over the years, there is scope to modernise further.
Built in a period of prosperity, the layout of the rooms echo formality and informality with impressive reception rooms with generous ceiling heights, sumptuous architecture and detail with the expectant kitchen and breakfast room, pantry, wine store and larder.
Grand living continues on the first floor with an extensive principal bedroom suite and three further generous bedrooms and bath/shower rooms. Originally it is believed the property comprised seven principal bedroom, three having been converted to dressing rooms or bathrooms.
Continue to the second floor and here there are further bedrooms, kitchen and sitting, ideal for teenagers, guest or staff flat.
GARDEN AND GROUNDS
The landscaped gardens are the fitting backdrop to this amazing home with areas of lawn, paved terraces and entertaining areas, walled garden, summerhouse and play house. The walled garden provides year round colour and is symmetrically laid out with brick and stone paved paths. The gardens are well stocked and with many mature trees (particularly a copper beech, mulberry, cedar and yew) hedges and shrubs offer plenty of space and privacy.
There are several outbuilding to compliment including garaging, workshop and various stores.
Here one can find so many of the expectant Victorian and Edwardian attributes, a nod to high society and giving today’s buyers a real proper “grown up” house.
In all about 1.9 acres.
